If you're done jerking off your E-penis I think the mods should probably close this thread before it gets out of hand.

I think Norton is trying to say Coach Moore revealed a side of himself only those close to him have ever seen. He understands Coach Moore's hanging on wasn't about trying to coach one more year. It was about not being able to let go. Not being able to recognize it was time to hang it up. Not willing to let another man take over "his" program. He knows the Jerry Moore who is just a man, not Coach Moore the man who can do no wrong. When he dared to share this many of you ridiculed him for it. Those who have known Coach Moore a long time realize he has a bit of an ego. He masks it with self-deprecating humor but it is there. For a career marked by numerous ups and downs it is sad to see it end on such a down note.

I didn't think that was ok last week either.
I didn't think it right either. Like my Grandpa used to say, "Three wrongs do not make a right". Lets stop this stuff now or who knows what Coach Moore will be called on here next week. We need to thank him and wish him well in his retirement. Time to focus on supporting Coach Satterfield and our football future at App IMO.

You will find that any good coach has an ego. You have to believe that you know all and not second guess yourself or you will go crazy.

An ego second only to Norton's, obviously.

Robert, brought back some fond momeries. "That Winston- Salem Crowd". As a founding member sure proud of all the havoc we brought to Lamley and Bork. Those were the good ole days.

Just glad the Winston-Salem crowd wasn't successful in ousting JM, too. We might be short three national championships.

I have never seen so many people so jealous of one man in my entire life. That is the thing that is so really, really sad about this whole thing. When you look around the sports world and then find so much wrong with this man it is just very, very sad. To say that he is not able to let go is kind of the pot calling the kettle black. I hope that the originator of this thred is able to get the hatred out of his heart and enjoy next year or at least untill he finds the next coach he just can't live with.

Time to turn our focus to Scott Satterfield and what the future holds, this does nothing but hinder our progress.
Because it's easier to say these things on a message board with no real threat of repercussions.

We all readily admit that JM is not a perfect man. With that said, let's compare the records:

While JM has been winning conference championships, national championships, beating Michigan, running a D-I program, giving motivational speeches, and winning awards; RN has been posting about how bad JM is on a message board. :lol:

With different leadership ASU may have won those and possibly several more.

Wait,is the thread going to get out of hand, or is his E-penis going to get out of his hand?

Either way, I'm leaving.

We know what we got, we don't know what we would have gotten and how many Mike Workings we might have had to have gone through. I'll take what we had.

Can play on both sides of the street. Could just as easily have been a Nick Saben or two in there too. People tend to forget JM's first 15 years were not exactly spectacular. 3 conf championships and a 6-10 playoff record might be considered really good but he did inherit a championship program. Sparky Woods won 2 conf championships and was 2 - 2 in the playoffs in 5 years after picking up the pieces of the Working disaster.

We could have gotten some good ones but the chances of going 24 years with only one losing season is pretty slim.
Sparky also had one year of Mack Brown to build on.

so why was sparky fired??? oh thats right...he left for greener pastures...you bring in hungry coaches and youll have hungry coach turnover. im not saying lets hire an old man but lets be realistic...if, as you say, with another crew we could have won those championships and maybe even more. i doubt it...was it london who left richmond for uva after a successful run? you think had we won one or three championships, another big school wouldnt have taken our staff away leaving our players wondering about new coaching staff and schemes??? continuity trumps upheaval every day of the week.
