You really think that would have made Fuente a better recruiter

and coach? Cornelson was his man on offense. That hasn't turned out so well and Fuente has doubled down on him. You think he would have done better that Bud on defense? I know there were some replacements that could have replaced him but do you trust that Fuente would have made the right hire?
I don't condemn the hire per se but he has failed miserably the last 3 years. And there are underlying currents about the program that make me very uneasy. Turner and his Mom as an example.

Ans to your question is no. Whit will do (or has done) his homework -- Windows NT 11/12/2021 10:51AM
