Rusty Whitt to Texas Tech

[Zeebart21]

I've heard it and it's a great mantra. And I know that this forum can explode with negativity. I do see a pretty fair balance of opinion most of the time. I'm one of the people that does enjoy talking about what needs to be fixed (from my perspective) more than I talk about what's right. I'll admit that. But I think my criticisms are about making a new ending. At least that's my objective.

I know the JJ thread had some people assuming something must have gone wrong. But for the most part, the majority of contributors recognized it as a promotion and opportunity to be nearer his origins.

True... there are probably a lot of "cynical old men" in the mix. Perhaps the 3 decades of being in the athletic fan dungeon had a negative effect. You cannot go back and make fans different (to borrow from your mantra). I'd suggest you couple your mantra with a little forgiveness of the cynical old man fan. I watched many of them be torchured by this institution. People that don't post on here just gave up or never cared.

Yeah, let me clarify.

One said it was because we had a bad season (on a half dozen different posts3). Two because we don't pay enough and it's Jim Harris' fault. One suggested there's more to this than a move up and one suggested they left because of impending sanctions.

At any rate there's more than one who thinks this is more than it really is. Next time I'll be more specific.

Thanks Jay.

That was Hud's call, not Whitt's. And that change started last year. Terrance Broadway went to Hud on behalf of the team and said they didn't need the extreme S&C that Whitt had been putting on.

When they backed off of the workouts they should have gotten some giant shoulder pads, like higher than the helmets. Half our team had shoulder injuries.
