Skip Holtz to LaTech

[BlueDawg]

Yes dude, I get that. Again, spin it however you want but his stock was going down and you hired a coach that had a losing record at his last job with major resources. Now dude, even you understand that most coaches are hired because because they are from winning programs or have won at their last position. Do you actually want to debate that fact?

So what have I stated that is wrong? Tech hired a Holtz and is getting name recognition with the hire; he had some success at ECU and failed miserably at USF including producing the worst season record in that program's short history. I understand about staying positive, so best of luck.

Wow! Thx for the paragraphs. I'm sure Tech will be fine. Good luck in MWC.

Every time I visit, I walk away quite impressed w/ the progress my alma mater's making.

I know what you're saying. You have students living in dorms build when Jimmie Dean was governor. No kidding. And you guys can do more with cinder block and red clay than anyone else I have ever seen. Great infrastructure you got up there.

Was listening to ESPN and they rank the La tech hire as the worst.

Dude, most coaches fail at some point in their career...you do know that don't you? What a great opportunity to redeem his career.

In that case, I wish Tech would have helped redeem Jerry Baldwin.

As long as they are happy with the hire, you know I am. Time will confirm one way or the other.

Think he meant Jimmy Davis. You know we Cajuns can't tell one redneck country singer from another.

[BlueDawg]

Yea, I got that : )

Personally I prefer Jimmie Beam.

Personally I prefer Jimmie Beam.

Even better!

Even better!

Now, if we are sticking to old school red neck country singers, I'll take Jimmy Dickens, Jimmy Reeves or Jimmy Rogers.

For the uptown folks, there's always Jimmi Hendrix.

Way back when I was a youngster, those red neck singers were forced upon me day and night. Once I was able to choose the type of music I wanted to listen to, it was Jimi Hendrix. May he RIP.

Dude!

Sweet! What's mine say?

[Oiler]

Any mention of what Tech is paying Holtz?
