Not sure if you're the one I responded to earlier about taking the program serious. One statement & one question. It seems to me you're bringing up one thing that supports the idea we're serious about the program now & then you INSTANTLY debunk that with the next part. Question is was that intentional? No clue on rest of the conversation. The statement part of this is Rudy Fernandez is lying. Rad was a third option but one of our first interviews. He simply tries to make it seem like we got EXACTLY what we wanted. Secondly when it relates to Mario. He was set to be hired when dip **** swooped in & hired Mandy. Wasn't much of a search that went into it. My eyes we're far better off that he spent more time at Oregon. That experience I personally think was critical to our future. Also when Mandy was fired, yes our plan all along had been Mario. BUT we did have another interview with someone who reached out to us. That was Robert Saleh. He was intrigued and so were we. I know a concern was raised but honestly I have no clue what that was. Myself I hate the jets BUT I LOVE SALEH as a coach. I would've been happy either way. Mario knowing the local climate I think ultimately will go a long way for us. Our key NOW is we need to SEE that Mario isn't gonna micro manage Dawson. From what I've seen so far it doesn't seem that's gonna be an issue. But we won't really know till it all matters and the game is being played. Practice is one thing and live action is another.
