Anybody have the text of the interview?
Real surprised the people here that can't stand some of Butch's quotes didn't jump all over Blackburn's answer when the question was asked about winning.
So you Butch cliche growlers aren't tearing this segment to shreds? Shocking.We talk about winning alot guys and I do not hide from that word, we believe in that word, I like that word and I'm not talking about 20-19. I'm talking winning at school and how you act when a policeman puts a ticket on your car or someone gets your order wrong at a fast food restaurant you know. How do you act, how do you behave. Those things transcend into who you recruit and then how you treat them which transcends into the classroom because they are competing in the classroom. Because the person front, back, right and left; I have a daughter in college and I'm always telling her look your going to be vying for a job one day and then that goes onto the field, quarter mapand those go together and we talk about winning alot though it's not about the score it's more about the behavior and expectations, frankly a mindset.
May be a word or two off but here is what David Blackburn said.

He already addressed he does not hide from word winning, Iirc he actually said it's not "JUST", 20-19 winning meaning winning on and off field is important not just one or the other.
i think he is trying to get fan support for his AD campaign and that's why he is doing this interview
But idk how UT admin are going to feel about a play like this.
No that paragraph definition was, champions of life. He is saying if your winning in the classroom or attitude or in life it will transcend on to the field/court you play on.
There is enough cliches in that segment for Butch to use the next five years. Cliches don't bother me, just pointing out the hypocrisy around here.

I think the whole "Just hire Blackburn" thing has taken off viral.
I know little about the guy and don't see what all the hoopla is about him being a can't miss. He was here when things were in decline and I wouldn't view UTC as any big challenge. They've been doing well before he arrived.
His interview was even less impressive. Unless you like the old hem and haw.
