Just to clean up the boards a bit, I suggest moving the remainder of the discussion about Tommy West and the football program here. There's no need to race across 15 different threads, when we can discuss it here.

I'll agree to keep the discussion polite, and use facts to back up my statements. I recommend that everyone else do the same.

I'll refrain from calling people "happy clappers." I recommend that everyone else refrain from calling me and others who agree as "miserables."

Let's have an honest, intelligent debate about the state of the football program, and do it without animosity. Let's see if we can do it.
