Quote:Hey, you don't see me ranting about the coaches, or the players. No, I don't know what the athletes that do not come here say about things, perhaps you do. I talk to them after they come to campus.

So you've talked to them after they get to campus and they tell you that they came here "in spite" of our crap facilities? What did we have that brought them here over overtures from schools with more attractive facilities?

Why is it that Murphy, who is in one of the most talent rich regions in the country can only get a handful of locals to commit out of HS. Those facilities are top notch. He's got facilities, proximity to talent, and he learned under one of the all time great coaches. Murph should be winning the league year in year out.

Then we have Dambrot. Guy has baggage. Facilities are so so. Program is stellar. Speaking of Akron, look at that football stadium and the pedigree of their coach. What has it got them? NOTHING.

As for ranting about coaches I'm pretty consistent. I stuck with Fleck when we were 1-9, got labeled a lap dog, a company man etc. Like GBL (who you'd never question) I get perplexed by some of our rotations. But all in all I think Hawkins has been very good for WMU. Apparently, if one doesn't goose step to your liking they're not a true fan.
