Thank you. It has to be noted how wrong certain commentators were.CV Griz Fan said:Touche'. You were kinda the Lone Ranger when you pointed out the grumblings that you were hearing about Stitt. You did get your fair share of grief too.....
This was a press release from the coaches. I could find no support at the time from players. Many had become best friends with those cut in the April Slaughter, and didn't like the way it was done, or the process. Wahlberg made that comment despite the fact that Chase Nacarrato had pointed out the contrary just a few months before when he left the Team. That's been a problem on egriz. Whether "sports reporters" or simply sycophants, they cannot tell any truth if it disrupts their friendly sources. They enjoy the elevated status of being "insiders" too much, and will not, under any circumstances, violate their privilege. As I also noted, Jud Heathcote used to joke about "coach access:" "Now, don't tell anybody."Postby BWahlberg » Mon Jun 13, 2016 12:04 pm
I think the OP's question wasn't so much at the time of the hire but how are they feeling now? If that's the case from those I've talked with I've heard good things. The design is more complex, the defensive coaches are very different in their approach and the players like it. There seems to be attention to some details that wasn't given before. "Us vs them" by way of defense vs offense or upperclassmen vs underclassmen isn't supported anymore. Team unity appears to be at a high point, despite how many new faces are on the roster.
Having had a go-round with Sample on this topic just a couple of weeks ago, in which he denounced my observation that reporters cannot report honestly as "complete bullshit," you can now ask Kyle Sample, havgriz and Wahlberg, "where were you guys?"
