I didn't realize Rolovich took the Wazzu job. I thought he was rumored to be our next coach.

I don't feel like checking wikipedia, but I don't think Graham had an ounce of work after Ray Anderson canned him. Too many bridges burned, and the sign stealing still leaves a bad aftertaste among fellow coaches. Good hire for Hawaii...I guess? An experienced hire is a better way to put it. Graham was always really skilled at mining the JuCo ranks and Hawaii is one of those programs that benefits most from transfers and JuCos.

You've been asked dozens of direct questions over the last decade to own up to your ridiculously awful takes and almost never respond.

Sorry my speaking the truth makes you big mad. Especially about your fandom.

And I answer any questions I notice. If there are any recent ones I missed I will be more than happy to answer them. Point me in the right direction to where I can find them since you follow me around so much.

It was extremely obvious what your bro was doing. If the Cats lost he would say the Cats and Miller lose yet another big/important game. But he wont give credit to the win.

Good for him. I heard the LB coach and DLine coach were so bad he was basically coaching three positions.

Wow, he stuck it to Michigan St I think. Right before signing day. They wanted him to fire assistants and he wouldn’t do it.

I’m most likely wrong, but I think Helton will get the boot before Sumlin. I would assume he’s getting more scratch and that’s great, good on Donte, but good luck retaining your position when sc brings in a “big” name HC. Perhaps Donte lights it up on the recruiting trail and that provides just enough job security after Helton gets shitcanned?

I don’t know....every sc alum I know cannot wait to get rid of Helton! I personally would’ve waited until the new coach is on board and tossed my name into the coaching pool if I had a hard on to coach at sc.

With a failed stint as an OC for Vandy. I dont understand hiring a mostly NFL guy who is a disciple of the WCO. Buff fans say it's to keep the recruiting class, which makes no sense because the color of their skin is about the only thing Mel and Karl had in common. Why not spend it on Jim Leavitt, or Graham Harrell, or even try giving OC lifer Noel Mazzone a shot at it.

The Bears haven't had a coach worth a damn since Lovie left... just saying!

Also... my kids both had pre-birth nicknames as they were cooking inside my wife's uterus.

The first one's nickname was -Sweetness
Our 2nd one's was Lovie

Only Lovie I have ever heard of before Smith was Lovey Howell.

Lovie Smith's last winning season was in 2012 with the Bears.

Not sure how much longer he can hide his shortcomings as an in-game coach. Should do like Taggart and jump on a big deal before it's too late.
