What's this?

I think too many coaches forget that it is entertainment

They get so caught up in the strategy and being secretive and controlling that they lose perspective. It is a game. Yes there is a lot of money behind it, but it is still just a game at the end of the day.

As a fan I have simple expectations. Makes the games fun to watch. Win the games you are supposed to. And beat UVA.

We don’t just need a coach. We need program leadership and excitement.
