A long term fit on offense would do us wonders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice to have a consistently successful offensive scheme to pair with Steele’s remaining years as a defensive coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Just a joke about how transitory the coaching profession has become.) Yeah, I consider anything three years or more at a non-HC position to be long term these days.

McLoofus 35,182 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I will say that Gus and every iteration of his staff have demonstrated that we should be excited about almost any commitment at this stage of the game. Not out of "anything's better than nothing" desperation- quite the opposite. And with the big haul this past weekend, it sure feels like we've leveled up in the one area we needed to most. So if we're getting a guy this week, then I'm very excited no matter who he is. I don't think there's much of a chance that we take anything less than very high potential at this stage.

Woodford is one of those brands that is often the best option on a limited menu, like on a plane or at an open bar event. There are others I prefer at that price but I would never say a bad word about Woodford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great trip. @ellitor, I promise this is my last contribution to this sidebar, but Mrs. Loof suggested the other night that the bourbon trail be one of our priorities when we have an opportunity to travel again (particularly sans kids).

We started in Atlanta, drove to Nashille for a stay, moved on to Louisville for a few days of touring, then on to the Gold Coast of Chicago, then made our way back through Lexington to finish the bourbon tour.

Dangit. I wish I hadn't promised not to comment any more. Um, your foodie/bourbon 2021 Recruiting trip is easily a 5* on the TripAdvisor 247 composite....
