Today, in fine for thee but not for me

The next time you hear a coach talk about commitment, you might want to have him define what he means first.

It’s amazing how these guys expect their bullshit to be taken seriously.

    Indeed. After all, a family really needs that extra $2 or $3 million a year after struggling to survive on $3.25 million for the two years in Louisville.

  2. What a relief that players don’t have families or careers to consider! That must be a load off their minds.

    Seems like Satterfield forgot the first rule of holes.

    It’s worth going to that tweet and listening to the actual video that he includes in the next tweet in the thread. It doesn’t come off as badly when you hear it in context in my opinion.

    Good Luck in recruiting after making a statement like that.

    Kind of funny. 2 years ago, a ton of people were howling over UNC hiring has-been Mack Brown and bypassing the clearly superior choice in Scott Satterfield.

    Now, the university that hired Petrino and stuck by Pitino is ready to file for divorce from Scott. Which, yes, says a lot about the university’s priorities as well.

      “But when they’re honest, well, doesn’t always go so well. Something to be said for sending the correct messages.” (john lewis quote)…please correct me here, don’t student athletes go to the institutions of higher learning in hopes of acquiring skills/knowledge/relationships that will help them in making career choices/decisions, good coaches will create an environment that will let the student athletes know that to get where they want to go, they will need to be “all in” without having to mention those words…people leave positions in all walks of life attempting to better themselves, while I’m there, I’m “all in”….

    So the years I spent in Athens were a wasted on trying to earn a degree so I could have a career and provide for my future family? Who knew?

    Sound like Satterfield and Kirby took the same online class this year.
    Tone-deaf diarrhea of the mouth 101.

    I’m trying to come up with a more tone deaf group but coaches have an insurmountable lead.

    If we are talking about a graduate assistant making $8000 per year, he has a point. If we are talking about a person making eight figure salaries, then they aren’t “considering their career“. They are looking for greener pastures.
