RR Claps Back | Maggard Messaging | South Alabama Preview

[JMV JustMyView]

I was talking about Gerry specifically. I like the good guy bad guy thing to a certain extent. I’m just saying it’s ok for Gerry to not be that way all the time. If need be ruffle some feathers. As for MAT he knows what I think about everything else

I talk to Gerry about 3 or 4 times a week. He is the voice of reason for sure. He can get fired up at times but on the podcast he draws a fair line.

You don’t have to agree with the Ragin Review guys, but my God is it refreshing. Right, wrong or indifferent, it’s dialogue about the university and athletics.

I found it interesting that there’s a disconnect between certain sects of fans. Good! It shows that there’s different people interested in the programs. Sometimes, aside from the good people of Ragin Pagin, I forgot that it exists.

In the end, I think, we all want success for each and every program. But when someone calls a spade a spade, thank goodness. I don’t care if it’s just an opinion. It’s all in the interest of success.

Remember, all this fan stuff is supposed to be FUN!

I think we all believe we have potential to have much greater success than what has been accomplished recently. I think people in the program believe that as they should. What the huge majority of people who participate here don’t believe is the current staff can lead that effort. I do think Dr. Maggard believes it, at least for 2022-23. Otherwise he would not have made the decision he did. I say that in all seriousness. I know many will use history to laugh at that view. It does not matter how many disagree. Key thing is HE believes it. At this stage everything that can be said about this situation has been been voiced. We will start to get an idea who is right come November. However it will be interesting to see if they can bring in a point guard who can help in spring recruiting. We have not had an effective player in that role since Marcus Stroman left in 2019.

I think that one weekend in March showed what out potential could be. The problem is we have heard it going into just about every season over the past few years. There comes a point where people just throw their hands up and just say "I'll believe it when I see it." Dr. Maggard made his decision. We will see how it turns out. Personally, I have my doubts. 12 years is a large sample size.

As far as the PG, this is where that criticism starts to sneak in from the detractors. Even though Russell left at the last minute, he was never a PG. But then, the attempted justifications of our shortcomings this season was the fact that we didn't have a PG. You heard me say we needed one last season before Russell left. We even talked about it. How we have not been able to find a true PG in three seasons is unheard of.

Appreciate it!

We are a fan podcast, not a news station. And we have a blast doing what we do following the university athletic programs that we love as a fun hobby. We also appreciate the feedback that we get from people even if it's sometimes not what we want to hear in order to make us better.

If you are a fan of the sport... watching regular season after regular season devolve into a mere practice session/season just hoping to get hot in March, is unaccetable.

I can't disagree with this because you have a fair point. But it would be nice to give people their money's worth in the regular season. The "three days in March" comment is true. But that doesn't mean you underachieve the other 4 months. The perfect example is this past season.

Not trying to fan the ego flames, but I appreciate that RR do what they do. I miss Jay, Stevie, and friends on the local radio.

Not going into the local slight, but I started listening to RR before football season this year. Not that local radio doesn’t allude to the reasons for loses, but it’s nice to hear concentrated analysis that’s independent. Call it what it is . You may be right, you may be wrong. Who gives a crap. It’s fan stuff and I’m happy people care enough to put effort into producing content to talk about it.

You know it.

Some folks on this board also ran with the word PROBABLY.

And some people on this board said "probably".
