My real feelings about Jimmy Ballz (tm)

Look at the similarities you unapologetic doogs:

1. They're both [allegedly] GREAT defensive coordinators.
2. They're both noted recruiters, because everyone says so.
3. They both had a pretty non-existent resume b4 getting a big P5 jerb
4. They're both the kind of people that OBK hates to see in this clean country.
5. They're both slick and cool af and will find their career end point at Joey's Kitchen (or, in Manny's case, as Joseito's Kitchen)

The only real difference between these cool cats is that Manny has great fucking hair and Lake is bald, but it doesn't count on him because he's black.

I'm pretty sure I'm right on this one.

Turrible take, Creep. Just turrible. No one has any clue has Jimmy No Balls is going to play out ultimately. He could make the CFP just as easily disappoint.

That said...

1. There's a pretty good track record of former Pete coordinators doing decent to great once they become HC.
2. Jimmy is coming into a way better situation than Manny it's not even close.
3. Jimmy has great on campus facilities and can boat to work. Manny has to drive on game day to Joe Robbie Stadium.

Track records. Hmm hmm.

This is some doogy rationalization that's going into the vault for later use.

"No one has any clue how [FILL IN BLANK WITH NAME OF REACH HIRE COACH] is going to play out ultimately. He could make the CFP just as easily as disappoint.

And Manny has as much or more talent on his roster as Jimmy Ballz has on his. The point is this: Emotional Mike is right when he points out that any other program making this hire gets the once over here at HCH (I acronym how I want bitches) and all this same exact "you never know" optimism gets laffed out the house. You know it too.

You're pressing.

You'll have to excuse me if I defer consideration of the opinions of an adult man who was crying the other day because Petersen retired.

But please, regale me again with tales of Chris Petersen's humanity and moral superiority. I'm close to crying myself.

We could let him coach first

Just a thought

Well, no shit.

I think I said that when Manny was hired too.

Keep trying. I've heard it all.
