I hate to sound like a whiny manchild but damnit man with the lack of new apparel and the lack of social media, coach Collins whining about fielding QB room questions I just really am not feeling very motivated at the moment. Let down...
The QB question doesn’t really bother me. I wouldn’t show any cards, ever. This became some sort of lightning rod issue with a faction of our fanbase for some reason. Did anyone really expect CGC would be different?
The lack of apparel I’m become accustomed to. It wasn’t Russell, it’s GT. Small market, inexperienced people in charge That don’t understand what sells to our base, etc. This will not change anytime soon unless we have a dedicated effort to fix it by hiring our way out of it.
The social media, I think it boils down to having scarce resources. As Head Coach no matter how much energy you have you’re balancing the Team needs (player selection, game plans, practice/work outs, academics, etc), recruiting (have to be spending more time on it because of how we’re doing), then finally you got to manage your social media presence. I think the first 2 are just running us out of time with the latter.
We’re not some football factory juggernaught with an effective and well oiled media Team. It shows. CGC can only carry so many things on his back. I think he has the priorities right: Recruiting, Team, Media & in last place is apparel.
