Look I realize I am one lone voice but what bothers me is all the other noise. If you had an accurate account of all the radio shows/call ins, Facebook pages, Twitter pages, Instagram posts, internet sites and various other ways to bitch and moan I believe we would be amazed. The team with a million voices and no body is listening. You post a thought positive, negative, neutral or supportive and you get blasted from 1,000 of the million voices out there. I think a few players keep up with this, why? In the presser last week one of the players admitted he kept up just to see how little people know about the players and the team. Sound reasonable voice are no longer welcome just the crazies. Now look its OK to have a hard core fan base and yes the fans do carry some weight, most of which is carried by Gamecock Club Members and even more by Major Donors, not voices from the wilderness.
I got into it with a poster last week just trying to get him to understand how little input he had in the matter. He was pushing a coach and staff that simply were not in the mix and I would assume the AD would not consider. After a couple of back and forth (well mannered) he turned ugly, got personal and had no retort. My reply was my feelings then and now.
Ray Tanner AD know how important this hire is and I think he understands how he was played by Wills agent and his close ties to Will grew over the years and he like Will on a personal level, as Ray put it coach to coach. I don't think its a good idea for an AD to get that close to his key employees.
