I don't believe I've attacked anyone in this thread or ever on here. I simply asked a question that I don't feel I've gotten an answer to. You said that those four were better suited for the job which I'm not agreeing with or disagreeing with. I don't know. Some had more experience, some didn't. I, however, am not completely sold on experience alone. There is so much more that goes into the hiring process that you or i will never know or understand.
The fact is, those four either did not want to leave the school they were at or the jobs they had for the money we were offering therefore they are not an option. Because if that, who else would you have preferred before Jones and why? That's not an attack, its a question directed to a person that is openly saying he is not satisfied with the hire we made.
You can say we should have gotten one if the other four but what would it have taken to change their minds and would that difference have been to much?
I don't even know if Gruden was ever offered and Gundy and Strong said no. I like Gundy but don't know that he would be better than Jones. He won A conference championship in a more favorable conference but what else would he have offered? What about Strong? He coaches in the same conference as Jones and has lost to Jones twice in three years. I'm sure everyone will have their preferences between those and Jones but I personally don't see many reasons that put them head and shoulders above him.
I just want to know since those three are out of the picture, or were at the time of Jones' hire, who you would have wanted ahead of him.[/]
Really? I'm sorry I mistook your compliment for a personal attack.:hi:
