I, like most people, had never heard of Ray when he was hired. I do have a little knowledge of the coaching search and I know that Scott had a hard time trying to get anyone to take our job due to the state of our program at the time of the search. I don't know everyone he went after but I do know a few and I do know that none of them wanted the job.

Having said that, I am going to support Ray and give him a chance to rebuild the program. I don't want the guy to fail just so I can say "See I told you we shouldn't have fired Stans." That group does nothing but hurt our program.

The crap about Frank Martin is just ridiculous. He never had to rebuild anywhere, but because he has been a head coach, he gets more years than Ray? Makes no sense.

You can win at MSU and if Ray doesn't, someone else will.
