    Ok. That makes sense. Thanks

    Love Saul, wish he was still here. Sorry to the Richman lovers but I would take Saul anyday of the week and twice on sundays. IMO a much better coach. I know Dave's record is better but different times. We had an old arena and the conference was a hell of a lot tougher than it is now.

    Again MY opinion...

    I like that we are winning and are in contention, but with Saul we had fun.
    In college sports, winning is indeed everything, but no one said you can’t enjoy yourself.

    From the outside looking in, it looks like DR has maybe said that a time or two. Something, something culture. Something, something character. Blahbity-blah.

    He promises his recruits two things "It'll be the hardest thing you've ever done but it will also be the most fun." I've heard this like a dozen times in interviews, it's always the same along with the culture and family lines. Not much for originality that guy. The fun thing doesn't exactly come shining through either, miss the enthusiasm Miles and Saul brought to the program.

    Dave’s just a different type of personality. Don’t know the guy and have never met him but because he doesn’t have the same personality as Saul and Miles doesn’t mean his guys aren’t having a good time and want to play for him.

    He kind of reminds me of someone with a dry sense of humor it takes a bit to catch on to. He’s really done a good job overall

    I've met and visited with Dave a handful of times, he really is a great guy, I've always liked him as a person. I just don't like his coaching style and philosophies as they differ from my views and how I would do things. Not liking him as a coach has nothing to do with who he is as a person, I like Dave, just not a fan of his coaching and think our team falls short of our potential because of it.
