Wonder what coach Thig was referring about the boogeymen in the Southern states? Me thinks it might be the Barners and Bammers with bags of $$$ when out on the recruiting trail.

I wonder if we could get a break down on how much each assistant was making in their prior job and how much we are paying them.
When will the MoU be released?

+1 watauga for the post. I really liked CJG's comments about the new coaches being blue collar. CBJ told us noone would outwork them. The more I hear, the more I like.

I'm really excited about this staff. We had some really good coaches on the previous staff, but they were a little bit of a hodge-podge. CBJ's staff all seem to be on the same page from the start. I think that will be a tremendous help. They also seem to be good men who care about each other and their players. I predict good things for them here.

Noticed in yesterday's interview of Graham that he mentioned a couple times that their wasn't any "egos" on this staff. He said everyone comes to each other for help instead of one person feeling like they have all the answers. It sounded to me like he was unintentionally saying he liked this staff better than Dooley's.
