What exactly was the point of this extension? Not like you have to be extended out 7 years to recruit. Also doubt other teams were blowing up Fred's cell after a 7-25 (2-18) season.

We'll probably have 7-8 new parts next season. Rinse and repeat. I am one of those, but also agree with you. Could easily see mass exodus again.

Tapped out, huh? Oh, yeah, I can understand that. That receiver had to cost some money. HOLY SHIT THAT MUCH? Well, yeah, I understand but that doesn't go through us so I had no idea it took that kind of ... Yeah, of course I understand these things cost money. But coaches do too and ...

I’d prefer it closer to 40%….with better shot selection/looks I think he could reasonably get there. Problem is I don’t see that happening with how our offense runs at the moment. cornfed24-7 and Cazzie22 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
