    Of course our sheepy fans all over Twitter agree with what he said.

    I just saw Swains comment and the usually VFL guys replying to him.

    He wants a $200M athletic budget, or so I've heard.

    You know the next one will be? The same guy with a different name.

    The cycle has been old, pudgy guy, younger guy with hair, even younger guy with hair, old, pudgy guy, young guy.

    So yup. Next one is going to be the same. But won't last too long at least.

    We should make a super computer our next AD. Trust the algorithms.

    i never buy that argument. Doesn’t mean that it couldn’t happen. It just means that not changing something that isn’t working for fear the change wouldn’t work guarantees nothing gets better. He isn’t dumb and it doesn’t have to be a Tennessee guy. But he appears to have the same disdain for fans as Currie. And that’s just not necessary.

    It’s not an argument. It’s just what it is. You don’t come out of an onion patch with strawberries.

    I don't mind him being an asshole. Assholes get things done. Just don't be a condescending asshole to the fanbase.

    My biggest issue with him is that he doesn't understand the place he walked into and doesn't appear to have any intentions of working to understand it, how it got this bad and why. Without understanding the place you aren't going to be able to fix it.

    it doesn't bother me. Similar to taking over a manager or ceo position of a company that has been shit. Focusing on what the old company leaders did over and over during the shit period doesn't do much good imo. He, Heup, the staff, much of the Ath dept and the new players, as well as ones we are trying to keep and recruit, had little to nothing to do with past failures. I get fans are tired, pissed, and will continue to vent and question, as it's human nature, but if one of us was in that position, we wouldn't want to hear it either, as it had nothing to do with us. We just may not vocalize it, but it still doesn't bother me as we try to move past and leave it behind.

    With the news of Lance Leipold getting the Kansas job, White has now had 5 football or basketball head coaching hires get Power 5 promotions.

    Kicked in the nuts for over 15 years by 4 different leadership teams who all promised, "I am the one to lead you back to the promised land", will kind of make you negative.

    Maybe Adam Sandler can be our coach, and he like accidentally falls in love with Danny White’s wife, or something

    What White does not seem to understand is that at some point, to invest anything more - energy, time, money - requires some tangible evidence that I won't be throwing whatever it is away. Show some proof that it's worth it and not just blind hope, and that "negative" portion of the fan base will buy in.
