I just went cross-eyed reading this thread.

No final decision has been made but O’Connor is expected to stay at Virginia.
A rhetorical question he asked. :)Quote:

Have you ever considered that you may have been wrong from day one? That the guy has never been a candidate for the job and we are talking to other people. And you and others have pushed a narrative to fit facts rather than facts to fit a narrative. Y'all have fallen for every line of bullshit that has been thrown out there by by the college baseball media types. Sadly this is what happens every time, they throw out fresh meat and y'all gobble it up, and when it doesn't happen the guy we hire is a disappointment.Quote:

He was a candidate and we spoke to his reps and backchanneled with him a bit. Just like we have already done with around 12-14 other candidates. WE NEVER FORMALLY SAT DOWN WITH HIM.Quote:

If I hear that Selmon consulted John Cohen before hiring someone, I might just quit MSU sports.
There wasn?t anything wrong with the process of how they hired a football coach, and this idea that Selmon just hired his buddy is one of the laziest thought processes ever. Jeff Lebby was at worst a top 3 offensive coordinator in college football when he was hired.
Some of you need to realize that the only established head coaches we can hire in football are either at the end of their careers or have so much baggage that no one else will hire them.
Hiring a Willie Fritz wouldn?t have changed the results of the 2024 season. Jamey Chadwell wouldn?t even entertain the thought of taking the job. Lance Liepold wasn?t interested in our job.
I'm with you KB21. thing is, regardless who is hired will be better than what we had a few weeks ago. Even the current assistants being lightly considered are better than what we had.
He did it!
Ha! Got your man!Quote:
