Could you imagine what a high school team with him as the head coach would be like
I knew a players uncle very well during the BL years. The parents of the players were not informed of what was going on. Ross made sure the parents were informed about team schedule on away games, when they could see their kids etc. BL didn’t. Didn't help by benching Davis for Luginbill which lost support from the team. His best assistants didn’t follow him to Tech either. At least GOL came back but there were some tough years in there.I don't doubt that all this is true.
I also doubt if it will mean as much as a bucket of warm spit if we have two or three 1 - 11 seasons. Lewis isn't disdained for his lack of rapport with the players; that is seldom something that makes a huge difference with coaching success (See Saban, Lou or Devine, Dan). He was and is a measure of coaching incompetence at Tech because of how poorly coached his teams obviously were on the field and because he lost too boot. So far the present regime is not encouraging on either count.
