[QUOTE="Subortus, post: 1563893, member: 652086"] I was initially an enthusiastic supporter of the Lovie Smith hiring, but it changed to disappointment, and ultimately annoyance. He never seemed to be hungry enough to learn, evolve, and remake himself as a college football coach. The unimpressive recruiting, inability to hire a good staff, cronyism and nepotism, strange play-calling and game management, sloppy play, too many penalties, and lack of energy/passion continued for five seasons. I understand that some people feel that he's a nice guy, but we shouldn't be paying millions of dollars for a coach who is merely nice. We deserve more than that. [/QUOTE]
