Just received a very nice email from Coach Hackett.
 
Having been critical of Coach Hackett in the past, I felt it was only fair to give him the credit he was due for the changes to the offense this year. Back on September 2nd (day after the NW game) I created a thread "I said I would apologize to Hackett..." [url]http://syracusefan.com/threads/i-said-i-would-apologize-to-hackett.31065/[/url] 
 
I also sent an email to Coach Hackett.
[INDENT=1]"Coach,[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]I  have been a vocal critic of your offense in the past, and was skeptical of the rumored changes for this season. I said that I hoped I was wrong and would be happy to apologize to you if I was wrong. I wanted to do it publicly as well as to you personally.[/INDENT]

[INDENT=1]This is the best offensive scheme we have seen at SU since the McNabb era. Congratulations indeed for a job well done and best of luck in the future.[/INDENT]

I did not expect a reply from Coach Hackett even though I am sure he rarely gets email apologies from fans! I am pleased he got it and hope he read it with a smile on his face.
 
Many have said he is pretty cool guy - I guess they were right.
 
Based on his comments, I think we have just seen the beginning of exciting football at SU. They are having a ball with the new system (and he said it [I]was[/I] a completely new system) and that they just need a cool name for it!
