2020-21 Coaching Carousel

[Blue Dawg]

Back when the COVID thing got started last April/May, T-Mac did a whole series of 30 minute (or more) video interviews with various LA Tech coaches. One week he would interview Skip Holtz. The next week he would interview Lane Burroughs, etc... They were actually very good. If you missed 'em, that's on you. It's not somebody else's fault.

I know it's fun and fashionable to complain about T-Mac, but I still haven't heard you --or anybody else-- say what's so "encouraging" about Dr Wood. Wood has been our AD for 91 days now, and other than the standard "form" letters of introduction, etc....I haven't seen or heard a peep from him. I'd love to hear someone report what he's done to further LA Tech athletics in the last 90 days.

I saw a pic of him and his family wearing Tech gear.

(I don't get why that matters. He didn't go to Tech. I don't care if he's a Tech "fan" or not, feels very fake to me. Just do the job!)

They can both be crap for different reasons. T-Mac for all the reasons people have put on here before, and the new guy for not realizing that the fans are down mentally and physcial numbers, and need a spark. He is the only change we have had that could provide that, and there are plenty of ways to do that, even during COVID.

Dr. Wood has as much time as he chooses to be here to remedy his early shortcoming. (unless you guys want to start a pool on whether we would actually ever fire an AD, maybe take sqaures, year, month, day etc.) I will take $20 on the day after hell freezes over.

Wood is off interviewing for other jobs...

Of course, if he would like to parlay this into a "better" job he had first better do something here. That often helps.

Last guy didn't and it worked out okay for him.

I never used the word “excited” referring to myself. I just stated that they were right. But did we need a change...yes I believe we did.
