He admits that he flat out talks to much. It's too late now , but he should have learned to keep his damn mouth shut. I really will never understand trying to control everything and keep things in house , only to go run your mouth publicly. I hope some of you get it now. We support the team. We want to win them all. We just don't support the idiot in charge.

If that is the case, then so be it.

I still believe that it appears to be a poor display of communication by a head coach.

With Bray, we are talking about a kid who has allegedly conspired to throw a game. Who has allegedly been a thorn in the side of this team with his demeanor. I'll save my benefit of the doubt for a kid who has deserved it. Allegedly. At the next level, no one gives a damn about his feelings. If he wants his feelings considered, give him a participation ribbon and put Worley in. Dooley has had Brays back this entire season. Don't act like he never sticks up for his players

If we are going to have an anal retentive coach that pays attention to detail then we should reap the rewards of very few mental errors in games etc. but NOOOOOOO, we get a guy that is more worried about the color coordination his office than what happens on the field.

I'm sorry, but unless you are in the pros, there is no reason to call out and bash your players publicly. It is one thing to constructively critize a player, or say bluntly "if Bray keeps giving up the ball Im gonna bench him" and leave it at that. No need to state how a player is weak, or lacking talent or what not. You can say that to the player in private, but not publicly. It will effect your players, effect the way parents and recruits look at you, and it can just deflate all support behind you.

Look around. He has no support. The players barely have support from this fanbase. How do I know? Look at the stands. Look at the threads, the phone calls to the radio, the threats to not watch UT football. Bringing up support is complete crap.

My favorite backtrack is on the buyout. How many Nancies were running around here saying that we just didn't have the money.......dumbasses....

You have the possibility of looking just as dumb if not dumber. Nothing has been done. Calm down.

It doesn't matter who it is, when you lead men, even if they are young men, you don't publicly humiliate them. Especially if they are weak minded or have soft feelings. That is what makes people half-ass and quit on you. You can pull them into an office or away from a group and chew their ass up and down. You can bench the kid to prove a point and explain why they are sitting. You don't call them out in front of everyone that they are supposed to earn respect from and you damn sure don't do it to the media.

D*mn.. Finally caught back up from when I logged odd last night.... I started reading 2+ hours ago..... Seems to be a lot of post for a "bogus" thread....

Funny how folks claimed everyone on this thread had lost their minds... Now everyone is jumping on the train and starting threads saying the same thing....

Medic...Did you guy come into town for dinner? Did he have any good info?

Is it true that Big Dan called CDD out and threatened to leave the team today after the presser (unconfirmed)... I saw where some folks have said CDD and Hart got into it, but haven't seen anything about CDD and a player getting into it....

No. I called him this a.m. and his office told me he was in downtown Atlanta wasting time so I deduced he was not headed here. Bad start to my day but "things" have improved.:)

Ha! I get it at Publix in the latin foods section. I haven't found it anywhere else; guess it isn't very common.

At a small store in Jefferson City I bought a Pina Colada popsicle the other day. That isn't odd but they also have Rice flavored. Sounds odd and I didn't want to try that.

Play better. That'll solve it. Bray has almost reached crompton level with me. I now fear it'll be a pick when he gets it out of his hands. I see what you're saying. I do. But it seems like the coaching staff (not just Dooley) has had these discussions plenty of times because its the same crap every week.
