And of course Byrne. I was only talking about coaches. But thank goodness for Byrne at that moment in our school history.
When our fans start explaining to other fans to become complacent by pointing at 20 years ago(Polk 2), then it reminds me of exactly when Byrne took over and all the Polk fans were up in arms he was not bowing to Polk's chosen replacement. It just comes across as that same mindset from those fans back then when Byrne was trying to push us to be better.
