Could this cliche be true?

I really like our coaches and their mind set towards the players and the game.

Are we missing some Terrell Owens or Dez Bryant type swag?

We have a nice crew that just can't finish games.
I was there when we melted the internet!  Were you?

I've supported CBB from day one and still wish he had succeeded here. He will at some point down the road.

But, I wish ONE time he had gotten in the face of a player, an assistant coach or a ref and raised three shades of hell. Players feed off that stuff.

CBB got hired in part because he was 'a nice guy', but his coaching record at UW was pretty damn good.  I'm a 'nice guy' but I wouldn't hire me to be head football coach because being a nice guy doesn't automatically make me qualified to be successful at something I'm not good at. 

He got hired to win games, something he did not do enough of, nice guy or not.

Kenny Hatfield would like a word with you.

Seriously people, this is getting ridiculous.

You won't find a nicer person on the face of Gods green earth, than Ken Hatfield, but the man could flat out coach. Meddling AD, and a disgruntled fan-base, thinking we needed more excitement, look at us now.

Every time.

Someone once said the last shall be first. Maybe that's why.

When you hire a bricklayer you want him to lay bricks, when you hire a HC for football you want him to win more football games than he loses.

I would venture to guess the person who said that was not anywhere close to as wise as the one who said the last shall be first.

Then Bielema's going to be first.

Dabo is one of the only "friend of the player" coaches that have been successful recently. He's the only one that comes to mind, but I am sure that I'm missing someone.

It definitely seems that the dictatorship style is working.

I think that was Ricky Bobby's daddy. He was anything from a wise man.
