He made a pitch to the sharts as OC but they didn't pat him any attention and went with the intellectual Dr Baker who has experience with TE's to run the vaunted Pete "glue" golding offense.
Mississippi thinks they have landed Washington
that's why i said ole mis has a WR coachQuote:

Maybe he doesn’t have any idea what he is up to either.Quote:

Hopefully we won't melt about this on this board like some are doing on other boards right now.
Maybe not on this board hopefully. A lot of people are though. I don’t know anything about Washington other than he never stays at one place too long. I guess he’s a good recruiter.Quote:

I’m much more concerned about a DL coach. I think there are plenty of WR coaches out there that would be a good hire. Even Billy Gonzales wouldn’t be a bad hire.Quote:

Billy would be a terrible hire. TERRIBLE. He's a terrible recruiter and our WRs weren't very good under him. I mean he had 3 years to teach De'Runnya Wilson how to be a receiver and in year 3 we still could only call 3 plays for De'Runnya: slant, fly, block out. He didn't know the difference between a curl, hitch, and comeback so he ran them all the same.Quote:

Nah, most of us are just calloused over. Nothing surprising about this.Quote:

I think some in our fan base just latch on to a name and convince themselves that he's the best candidate out there. I mean I would venture to guess that 10% of our fan base, and probably less, knew who L'Damian Washington was Thursday afternoon.Quote:

Now, they are melting because we didn't get him. However, most of this does stem from the fact that some are just mad that Bumphis was dismissed.Quote:

There is no longer time to develop players, keeping them two or more years, even if they will $tay.Quote:
