[QUOTE="str8shooter, post: 76929, member: 1759"] Good analogy. Difference being that Fritz didn't inherit a train wreck like Bryles did. He showed up at GS to find much better talent on both sides of the ball than he ever expected. By the way, Fritz and GS president Brooks Keel did the same with freshmen and newcomers to GS when around 7,000 showed up at Paulson Stadium for the Day One annual event where they are introduced to what it means to be an Eagle. Almost 9,000 students made it to the SSU game last weekend, so they're on board with the new coach. Keel will be one of the best presidents the university has ever had. He came from LSU and totally gets the value of quality athletic programs to help showcase the university nationwide. Granted, he pushes hard to elevate the academic programs at GS, and has done a great job in making degree programs much better, but he fully understands that more people will hear about GS through athletics than academics. Bottom line is getting the public's attention. Good things come once you do. Whether you like it or not, people can tell you more about a university's football program than they can discuss SATs and GPAs. [/QUOTE]
