Manson starts a thread on "Where the talent?"....not an unfair question. A number of posters comment on the question that is an obvious observation if you watch the team play now verse what I saw in past.
It is like saying "Obama is the job's president" or "the administration is friends of Isreal." Four years of Obama leadership/policies have failed to serve the American economy. secure the border or match the rethoric. Time for change.
In my world of sales if monthly quota's are not met...all the spin in the world will not change the bottom line...we are sold that LU must change to a "new brand of Christianity", that we must lower of standards to be more "student/athlete friendly". Maybe we should be prioritizing hires who are passionate about selling the preparation of becoming a "Champion for Christ."
Back to the thread...I have said it two or three times, "
Who is resiponsible for recruiting? Were salaries higher in past, recruiting budget, facilities? Now we are going with junior college recruits? How many young players will leave or run off?
Some on this board must work in the athletic department, be related to AD or just live on fantansy island to say we have failed to meet the expectations of that are sold by the athletic departments own promotions. Because I have notice in football or basketball if someone doesn't march to the "we just need time" or the redefining mediorce or poor as "progress" than the same attack dog posters try to rally a meaningless defense or demean the poster. Or now I am someone I don't know
or the "some are only on here when we are losing" whining
. In athletics and sales usually there is an honest appraisal of performance based on numbers but it seems that many on here prefer a mindless exercise in spinning their "if only" rhetoric.
