In my opinion this is the comment that silently started the new coaching search.
Not a direct quote:
But, Dino acknowledged our lack of depth essentially when a reporter mentioned it and here was the response -
“Our depth is being bought away, look where our guys ended up”
That was the silent nail in the coffin I think. That had to tick off our AD. Like yea it’s absolutely true! But it’s the way he said it almost in a defeated manner and as a fan I personally said, jeez so that’s the answer in this NIL world? He didn’t say something more rah rah like mora at Uconn. He could’ve said the same thing but with a tone of “listen we recruited elite talent which shows by our guys transferring to major programs. We as a community and fanbase need to see that and recognize that we need all your help on NIL. We need to keep these guys orange. I’m calling on every fan and alum to step up and if we come together as a community I know we will retain these guys going forward.
But instead it was like a throwing your hands up moment like “well what do you expect me to do?!”
Now we have Mr FRAN BROWN in town.
That will never be his answer. He will find a way says my orange clouded brain to get our NIL right.
He is going to be in our community connecting everyone to his team. I feel like he already has pushed NIL necessities from the average fan more than dino did. This is why I believe we will be successful on the talent front. He gets it. He doesn’t shy away and take a back seat to ANY ONE.
