Just think if W&J converts that fake we are not sitting here talking bad about the program but saying how much guts Mike has for calling such a play. It's a double bladed sword that has its good and bad. If you make a call like that and it does not work than the coaches should be man enough to take any criticism that any parent, fan, Alumni, or friend has to say. W&J needs to learn from the mistakes and to the SR's you guys had one hell of a ride and good luck in your future."
*program
* YOUR knee
Dirt did you read this quote at all. I enjoyed my times at W&J and would never change them for all the money in the world. Now as for the last call of the game I can honestly say that was a bad call. But I never said he was a terrible coach; just look what he did for us my senior year. We should have been out in the first round, but mike called a great game. You can never take away. I also said in my quote that if the play would have worked we all would have complimented his call. Now it did not work, so that is that. I also got a little more in the pot than just being an alumnus, I have a brother on the team whose season is over and his football career is over.
Now as for my knee, he did support me when I blew my knee out. What else was he suppose to do tell me not to rehab or come around the field? Yes he gave me chance to come back on for the playoffs, but then again I went threw his a lot of his test to earn my spot back. I respect Mike a lot if you are an everyday ready of this post pattern site then you would have seen that I always give Mike props for being a great coach. I worked for Mike and developed a friendship with him, but when I messed up he let me know. I am not going to get in the extent of his punishments or how he handled situations, but one instance that does stick out is when he told me off in front of all the parents in Emory and Henry for getting a penalty. I messed up took my punishment like a man and moved on and did not make the mistake again. I think that he should do the same thing from this experience. It did not work take the criticism and move on and learn.
As for you, e.c and scars baths when my knee was out of order that's what friends are for and I will never forget that. I also will never forget how Chef Scars made noodles that could have used David Hasslehoff to prevent them from drowning.LOL. Like I stated before I will never forget my experiance I had at W&J, but what are people suppose to do just let it go and say its okay it was a gamble that did not work? I do not think so, when you gamble like that you will get people like me that will always question that call. So, you can stop protecting Mr. Sirianni he is a big boy and can deal with this little sarcasm. Next year when he goes 10-0 again, this will start to fade out of peoples minds
