[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 925338, member: 1640"] Coaches demand absolute loyalty to be successful. A former coach is absolutely tampering with the psyche of a program if he publicly follows and comments on former players where he used to coach. Professionals don’t do that. The examples you gave of Johnson prove my point. Thank you for sharing them. He bit his tongue even with weekly attacks against him by Collins that lasted almost three years. When he did respond it was to defend himself not to undermine another coach’s work. As you pointed out. The one comment or like about a player was in support of that player’s enthusiasm for Tech. So clearly not the same thing. It may be that you and I have a different understanding of professional standards. My concern has absolutely nothing to do with “hatred of Collins” since I’ve never hated the man. I just find him unprofessional. The only analogy I can think of is it’s the night before your wedding day and your future wife’s fiancé keeps posting pictures of the two of them on social media. He’s just remembering the good old days, and he truly loves her, and wants the best for her, and it’s all innocent, but if he was a true gentleman he would just move on. [/QUOTE]
