Why do you think they played him at tackle instead of guard?
They promised him that when transferring from rhode island.

Do you think Pittman and Kirby are that bad in evaluating talent?
Well, they obviously got catalina and wynn wrong. In that situation, they were that bad. And deserve to be called out by me in my armchair for it.
quote:
They did not have all the information and made a poor suggestion. Right?
And Smart and Pittman looked at the 4th best tackle in the Colonial Athletic Association and promised him the starting left tackle spot at an SEC school and kept him there for an entire season despite you and I seeing that he should be at guard and wynn should be at tackle.
quote:
But the doctors were making their diagnosis based upon the information they had....and did not have all of the information. I think you made my point for me
Then we agree. People are human and make assinine mistakes all of the time. We disagree about judgment. I want to call out people for their frickups. You want to excuse their frickups because you arent God and all-knowing.
As i said... i can be at peace strongly disagreeing with you on passing judgment when humans act like humans.

So, it's your opinion that Kirby promised a kid a job before seeing him or working out for him, then stuck with that decision putting his job in jeopardy?
Ok.
quote:And we can all assume that....but we still don't know what all was going on. Ftr, I called them out for that, too. But I still don't know the ins and outs of the decision. I am willing to believe that either there was more going on with the situation, or Wynn just wasn't ready.
Well, they obviously got catalina and wynn wrong.
quote:But you are speculating, aren't you? Do you know they promised Catalina anything? I have never heard this. Do you know somebody in the program or are you guessing?

quote:But those mistakes are made when they don't have the proper information. Which is what I am saying most fans do. They make assumptions based upon little or no information.

I mean you assume they promised Catalina something. You assume Wynn was the best fit at that time for tackle. You assume there were no other mitigating circumstances tied tot hat decision. I am not saying you are absolutely wrong, because I don't know.

Well....that pretty much correct. I don't know. And before I am going to accuse somebody of something I want to make sure I know what I am talking about. At my age I have had my share of looking foolish when I jumped to conclusions or assumed things. I have also hurt other people when I did that.
As for football? I prefer to allow the coaches do what they do best and if they screw up fire them. But it's way too easy to sit back and criticize without knowing the whole story.
If we don't have all the facts it's way too easy to amke bad mistakes, and some mistakes are difficult to take back.
See Bryan Harsin of Auburn. I would have bet money he was fooling around with the girl....and I would have been wrong. His reputation has been damaged, and i can assure you his relationship with his wife was damaged as well.....because a bunch of booster wanted him out and made something up....then fans jumped to conclusions before all the facts were known.
Hey. I've had my say. It's a dead horse now. You can have the last say and I will bow out of this thread.
