[QUOTE="Techster, post: 361259, member: 360"] I would disagree there. As this board is proof of, when guys get hurt during a game, there are multiple threads the next day asking how certain SAs are doing. It's definitely newsworthy for fans, but I think most fans on here are fine with with whatever protocol CPJ has and we're willing to wait until it's appropriate to release that information. There's definitely a give and take that needs to be respected between coaches and reporters. One negative about the way CPJ approaches media is that the team probably doesn't get the coverage it deserves. Look at the difference between how the basketball team and the football team is covered. The basketball team gets a lot of "love", especially from the local media. During the offseason, Pastner and the basketball team had a lot of feature pieces written about them. The AJC did an in depth piece of Okogie, had another piece on Pastner's recruiting schedule in Vegas, did a great piece on Lammers offseason, etc. Radio guys all love having Pastner on the radio and he seems to have a great relationship with all of them. Contrast with how the local media treats CPJ and our football team. Let's be honest, the team doesn't get the greatest coverage, and that probably has to do with media not wanting to deal with CPJ. Coaching has changed, you can't just be a good coach anymore, there's a media savvy aspect that goes along with it. CPJ is actually really personable, and I wish that's the side he would let the media see...but unfortunately, that's not what always happens. I think the team loses out on a lot of good press because of it. [/QUOTE]
