One way I can tell that (The HC we don’t speak of) hasnât connected with the students and the fan base in general is the lack of #SouthHateWeek tweets, etc.
Just an observation.

HC has better things to do and bigger fish to fry than social right now. If he was worried about social media, he'd have his hands full fending off not-so friendly fire than to worry about enemy fire. Our fans will devour him first.
On second thought, we're paying him so much that he ought to not only coach up college kids and manage his staff but to also worry about what's getting tweeted and posted out too, right? I'm sure at his pay rate, he's screens all the jumbo tron vids, break music, and coordinates when the band plays and what they play. I mean, we're paying him enough to micro-manage all that, right?
Crap. Still no sarcasm button.

I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again... he’s not head coach material
Or he just wants to get out of Troy as quick as possible...

All I will say is look at Scott Cross' Twitter feed and you will see the fire for TROY we want from (The HC we don’t speak of).

Possum I think you are uninformed on this one. (The HC we don’t speak of) is doing a lot to connect. Do you want him to come over to your house and bring the cheerleaders to pump you up?

Yes please. The cheerleaders only would be nice.

Last year at this time, we were 4-1. I'd say being 2-3 has more to do with the lower level of #SouthHateWeek trash talk than does the degree to which (The HC we don’t speak of) has engaged with the student body. I'm not too likely to be trash talking when evidence has been presented that there is no reason to be doing so, but that's just me.

You know we pin a lot on (The HC we don’t speak of). How about pinning some on our lazy administration for dragging a$$ and trying to save a few dollars and hiring our AD and HFBC late. How much did that effect recruiting etc?

How much did that effect recruiting etc? To be fair on the hires, the openings both came very late in the recruiting cycle. If they were mid-season changes that were filled in December, you'd have more of a point.

It took nearly a month to hire whatshisname. Saved a month in salary.

(The HC we don’t speak of) was hired making about 100 grand less than NB made when he was hired. (The HC we don’t speak of) also has a smaller budget for staff.

I guess we needed the money for other things that do a better job than football of exposing Troy to the world. Now we know why we promote young and inexperienced.

Do more with less. I hope that does not lead to a Trojan rendition of Bastille Day on the 17th of October.

Without football and Larry Blakeney, the Troy campus would have been closed and everyone would have scuddled to Dothan to head up South Eastern Alabama University. There were meetings about it in the 90s. So kick in for football or our school dies.
