Message: [QUOTE="TheCusian, post: 1817267, member: 2585"] I'd like to think that the reason people are fired up about the use of the word "effort" is out of a genuine like for the former coach, no matter his record. That and they did play hard in many games that were out of reach or meaningless. And yeah, we need to split hairs to get something positive out of bad seasons. Especially since so many of our current players were on those teams. Seems pertinent. It was a guarantee that the team would show up and give consistent effort. What wasn't a given was the game plan or a realistic shot at out-scheming teams with better talent. I'd attribute most of the blow outs to that. [/QUOTE]
