And, lest we forget, he got fired for saying stupid shit and hitting a player with a piece of paper.RaccoonHarry said:
I submit that Lake didn’t fail because he changed. He failed because he didn’t change. Stepping up from coordinator to head coach requires massive changes because you’re in charge of the entire program. He never stepped up to the job. Seemed to think he could “do” the job being the same guy, with an added dose of overconfidence and arrogance. If he’d had the self awareness to realize he was over his head from the jump BUT had worked his ass off to grow into the job maybe he’d have made it. Smugly telling himself “I got this” was the worst thing he could have done. Well, unless his goal all along was to fool everybody for as long as he could then collect a $10 million payout when shown the door.DugtheDoog said:...while still digging the enormous grave. Insists he was right all along about Jimmy Lake as a coach. Loved the hire at the time. He wasn't wrong, you know. Jimmy changed. What a flaming cunt. Jfc man.

Let's just say he changed.
And those who say it was a bad hire, are those you shouldn't pay attention to. Revisionists. Always the smartest guys in the room.
Throw those two things out, and we are having a different kind of fun in here right now. -
If you have not gotten some shit on your dick you haven’t lived yetGreenRiverGatorz said:I love the classic allergy to humility that Kim continues to display. It's not hard to say that Lake seemed like a good hire at the time. I certainly thought so.
But it turns out he was a shit dick the whole time. We were wrong, it happens quite a bit in such an unpredictable profession. It's only hard to acknowledge that if you're still deluding yourself into thinking you bat 1.000.
