Credit? sure.
But when you purposefully put it out there on the forum thread be ready for some rocks to be thrown. SOrry you dont see it that way. Well actually not sorry. But you are also entitled to your opinion.
thats exactly the kind of attitude that ruined these forums.
so many vets sit up here on their high horses and think if a newer coach says something that doesn't pass their approval test, they should put them down. that is a terrible way to foster the new generation of coaches becoming the next generation of old coaches. it happens all the time. these forums are here so people can come and ask stuff, throw things out there, and get some feedback. not so you can pass judgement. this is exactly the kind of stuff that keeps coaches off these forums. and im sure my response to you isn't helping either.
the bottom line really is, nice job my_kids, don't listen to these kind of crappy remarks.
i tend to agree that there's too much forum bashing. that being said, my_kids is either (a) looking for kudos for winning a nc with sub talent (
see, eg, 'has anyone ever done what i just did - win a nc w/o stars?'), despite that his team was loaded; or (b) he's completely clueless and can't even appreciate how loaded the team he just successfully coached to a nc really is!
i won't take anything away from a guy who can coach a team to the big dance and win it all which in and of itself is a huge accomplishment, but when you open the door, you're inviting in the response.
