Mike Anderson

[quote="mjmaherjr" post=351163]I’ll say one thing. Monte who I know well doesn’t look older than Anderson and the hotties I see him with on Facebook and Instagram are a hell of a lot younger than me [/quote]

Agree. Monte...........I would have guessed a decade younger.

In any event, Monte is the first Redmen.comer I met in person (you never forget your first) and I have him pegged as a gentleman. His politics are out of whack, but I'll fix that later.

Yeah agree, a big majority strongly supported the hire early on and a bunch have gotten more enthused as the Staff filled out.
We’ve just got to be patient on the recruiting front since it’s so late.
Even there, most posters realize that and will give CMA a pass this year, which is absolutely the fair thing to do.
That said, this Staff will bust its gut to get the best talent out there to complete the roster.

[quote="mjmaherjr" post=351180][quote="Class of 72" post=351179][quote="Moose" post=351171]Can’t wait for the original Mike Anderson thread to get locked[/quote]

May as well since from day one few had a warm and fuzzy feeling about coach Anderson. Most of it had to do with not hiring someone else and it has extended to his first recruits who he has had to sign on the 11th hour.

As Billy Joel sang " I didn't start the fire". You all were arguing over the hire over 40 pages ago. My friend Dink even noticed the negativity back then:

"but I have a pretty good memory for the most part, and just didn't recall a bunch of posts where folks were falling over themselves in excitement when Anderson was hired nor when he landed McGriff and Sears.

Of course, you're always gonna have a small group of posters who'll act in that manner anywhere, and it's no different on here. I just don't recall it being a ton of posters.

I really believe a lot of this stems from Cluess not being hired, as I know Monte strongly advocated for the hiring of him. I could be wrong, but I truly believe this to be the case."

Sure, lock the thread and get over the hire.[/quote] go through this thread in the beginning and look at all the posters pumped with Anderson. There were few not happy. Recruiting a different story maybe[/quote]

Mike, the "original thread" wasn't even about the Mike Anderson hire. The title thread was changed after about a dozen pages. We had gone through Hurley, Moser, Jones, Cluess etc. Some worried AD Cragg wouldn't survive the process
Remember this comment? "Not trying to be sarcastic, but I think the bigger question is will Mike Cragg be the AD next week? Pretty hard to get a coach in place if your AD is on his way out."
After the hire most were happy. A few were not and most seem dissatisfied we have not signed a decommitted 5 star from Kentucky. Mcgriff has taken a lot of heat for being too short but you know what.....I think he may be a better ball distributor than Shamorie and Heron and Figueroa will benefit better than playing with Slick.

Just got home from rehearsal and catching up on all the new posts. One hell of a day on this board: First I'm labeled a racist and, as if that wasn't bad enough, now its being implied that I'm starting a new career in porn, have a fetish for college girls and hold some warped political views?????? See what you started 72'

Oh KKK, so you're not a racist but I could swear I saw you in some Old/Young loops with college girls. I think someone must think you may be a Libertarian as far as your political views. Stupid them because based on the vids you're simply a libertine. If I wanted to start something I would have mentioned goats, sheep. Marillac and Fun in the same sentence.B)

Don’t confuse me and Paul, he’s got a few more acting credits under his belt.
