A good idea does not have to come at a good time.

After you call the white tailback give John L. a call and let me know what he thinks about the MAAC Conference. I heard heard he summers in Albany.

Why would I need to PM you. I want to share the good ideas with everyone.

I would like to know why you feel that John L Smith would not be the best option as our next HC and who you had in mind that is better as well as who in the MAC currently has a better coach overall.

You can easily win with John L. Smith in the MAC.

BECAUSE... like it or not, we HAVE a head coach. Regardless of what you think of Gregg Brandon as a coach or a human being, it's flat out disrespectful and plain crap to bring anything like this up. AGAIN. And especially after a win.

You have to be joking. We can talk about how much we dislike our head coach, but can not talk about who we would want to replace that coach should he be fired?

Smith will be on the market and signed by another school before Brandon is gone from BG.

No. I'm not joking.

Posting potential coaches for a job that isn't open is ridiculous.

Respect has to be earned.
