Bring back Vic

Why do we seem to have so many coaches and a.d.?s with some type of ?issue?? Polk was probably our most loyal successful coach but even he had ?issues? (eccentric and a hard on for the ncaa that affected our program) and tried to burn the house down on his way out the door.

We seem to have a lot of drama.

To paraphrase Matt Wyatt, to make it as a coach at that level you either have to be one of the most phenomenal people to walk the face of the earth or a big-time asshole. Either way, you have to be all about yourself and that implies a good deal of narcissism. Coaches with their outsize egos and their families with fireplace money and everyone bowing and scraping before them...Of course trouble seems to follow them. How could it not? Reminds me of politicians. They get off on it. Granted, some of them are phenomenal human beings and personal foibles aside they are generally really good leaders. People tend to think a lot of people who think a lot of themselves. Ever heard Urban Meyer talk? Even with everything known about him, it's no wonder why players would run through a brick wall for him. And this stuff is almost everywhere. We're just more aware of it here in our own backyard.
