Great Post Wash, as I read all these post we could throw out hypotheticals (sp) all day. But I think at least have 10 things that seem to be weighing on me.
1. Bob Pruett may very well be the best coach Marshall University has ever seen but the University must be committed to bringing in some one who match his drive and quality.
2. Bob Pruett will forever be a part of Marshall Univeristy, for both his successes and his dedication to his school.
3. I don't think a canidate exsist on Staff currently that will fill thought number one. We don't pay our assistants enough to have one.
4. Although it's his right, since he's done so much for the program Bob sure did leave us in a hell of a pinch on this one. I can't think of worse time except perhaps during summer practice.
5. Something more is involved with the situation that would bring out number 4 Health, Power Struggle, Funding, something has evoked this sudden departure.
6. I have my doubts about how well the situation is going to play out with the admin in place.
7. I think that some way that there is a behind the scenes, deal with Kueck and that this national search is just window dressing. It's to scripted, to media backed to of happend the way it did.
8. Current Administration doesn't care about the program or fans, or else a national search wouldn't be window dressing.
9. I think that eventually it will all come out why Bob's sudden departure happened.
10. If Administration has turned down the football program from growing (i.e funding) there should be a riot to Farrell's house. Old school flames and pitch forks, rakes whatever you can get your hands because if a former WVU grad is taking down my football program by god it's going to evoke a little more than a phone call or email that will never be respected.
I guess we'll just have to sit around and see how it plays out.
