    So one was a dick to the wrong people and the other one is a dick to almost everyone else?? Neither is what we truly need, but if T-Mac keeps things living in the right direction, even in spite of himself, I'll keep my mouth mostly shut! 😏

    Serious question; is this the worst schedule we have ever had? Only five home games, three of first four are away, none of the home games opponents are anything to get excited about, playing AWAY at UMass (indy team that just moved up in 2013 to FBS)...

    I'm thinking maddawg is missing BVDV based on his extra animosity towards the the macneese wunderkind.

    This year's football schedule is really horrible. At some school's this would get an AD fired. And it's really why I started this thread. LA Tech should be far enough along --over 25 years now as a Div 1A FBS competitor-- that we shouldn't have to put up with this poor scheduling nonsense. And with a "Holtz" as our head coach, it should be even easier for our AD to schedule games.

    I was looking back at our football schedules in 2011 & 2012, and asking myself "What happened?" How did we go from playing such a good schedule in those years to this silly crap now? It makes me miss the old WAC days.

    No extra. I didn't say anything bad about him until he had two years under his belt. I said I'd judge him first on his football scheduling. It was obvious that his people skills were horrible within months of being hired, but I didn't touch on that until last fall. It's also obvious he is not doing a good job of hiring those he should be delegating to. He made a good MBB hire and a good Baseball hire. That's all I got.

    T-Mac was at a previously scheduled AD conference with Adidas but he did call a few days before Tech & Tails to send us his regrets for not being able to attend and thank us for the job and effort to host the event.
