Wow, the force is strong with this one. I'm not the best to play that game with. Sustained is also used to speak of keeping something going for a prolonged period of time. In other words, having sustained success in competition doesn't mean winning every game, but can be used to show success repeatedly over a prolonged period. I hope that helps you out and may the force be with you. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting that done in the SEC West, in my opinion, should translate into a great deal of success at UCF. I'm not saying that everything was peachy at Auburn. I'm just saying that he can coach and that I believe that will translate well at a place like UCF. I believe that if you paired Gus with the right ACC school, he would also do well. Auburn is one of the toughest jobs in the country. I don't know that anyone can last 10 years without giving out of steam completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, I hope T Will does well, but it will be difficult in that Group 5 as most really good defensive players will go to P5 schools. This may be perfect for Gus, although most coaches hired here have used it as a stepping stone to a P5 team. It will be interesting.... Explain how he is a good coach? I'd like to hear this. Folks do know that Steele was the main one coaching the Lbers for the last couple of years? This is pretty common knowledge. T-Will was there and suppose to be learning but was distracted by how good he thought he was to learn anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't care if people here like me or not. Said this from the start. I just wanted to bring a little perspective here on the inner workings of all of this. Like it or not. Not everyone who wears or plays for the orange and blue are good AU folks. All this rah rah stuff posted here needed some grounding. Folks here hated DC but love them some T-Will. It's amazing at the hypocrisy. DC was just more publically vocal of Gus and his shortcomings. T-Will just did it behind peoples back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
