yeah everyone I know says great things about the guy.  I was one of the point man for 10 years with alumni functions and support to try and help things out over there.  The chronic losing with no end in sight and with little administrative support (for ex. kids getting into Williams/Amherst and Trinity but not Hamilton) we finally said enough.  The new guy has his job cut out and the good news is they're at least again being competitive.

My old assnt. coach says this new guy is great and has what it takes.  But I frankly don't think it's possible given the state of football right now particularly at a school like Hamilton.   With the concussion issue fewer and fewer "smart" kids are playing the sport.  And with the ones that do fewer and fewer can even get into the school these days.  Combined with it being $65,000 a year to go there public school kids like me won't even consider it and the only ones who are now are the prep pretty glory boys like Patrick (CIL :);):cool:).

No if the dude can turn them around to a winning record it will be such an amazing and hurculean accomplishment given the recent history to the point where even us here at SU might take notice to allow an interview (which is what happened the last time it was turned around when our coach bolted to an FCS school).
