Hughes was not satisfied with what we had here....so no we should never hire someone who does not want to be here!!! A beat-writer asked our admin at the alcorn bball game about Harold Jackson and they didn't know anything about the "hire." Yall are getting your panties in a bunch over this hire why??? Antonio knight is recruiting for us and will probably be retained by the new coach. I don't know why yall keep throwing his age around like comegy wasn't too far behind. Comegy will tell you first hand that a HC does not have to run with his players in order to coach. Can he write plays is all I want to know! But I am confused as to why everyone is worried, especially since everyone knows comegy has problems with big games. Yall clown everything jsu affiliated until they leave, everyone at jsu is sorry until they leave. Then they are great!!! I like Harold because I feel that he can coach, nobody hands out nfl gigs, he is a respected guy. I can't bash whoever we hire until the first game. *shrug*
It ain't about running with the players. It is about relating to them. You and TP are the only ones defending the hire. No smack. I want JSU to be good. I did not enjoy the Bell years. I just think this is a bad hire. Comegy has not taken off any time from coaching college kids. He was in tune with the young folks. Harold going to need a young innovative staff for it to work.
So Hughes didn't want to be there. What about John Shannon? Wasn't he on the final list?
