Caught Coach Dakich on Radio
He was pretty fired up. He's really high on this kid from Florida we reported yesterday. The fax came in with his LOI during the show, which meant Coach could talk about him. He says he was the best all-around player on a really good team. He sounds genuinely enthusiastic about the team next year, and that's important for a couple reasons.
First, because I want to see our program turn around, and I want to see Coach Dakich do it.
Second, because not having a rocking Anderson Arena to go to on a cold winter afternoon is a void.
He compared this year to the year after Netter left--losing a senior who was a toxic presence. By implication, he is comparing John Floyd and Samarco to Reimold and Almanson. Finally, by implication, I guess Mawel Soler and Stephen Wright are playing the role of Netter in this little play.
Either way, he seems really happy with the leadership he is getting from his upperclassmen, and he said he wishes he could get this team on the floor right now.
Me, too. I think there appears to be talent, and they appear to be staying with the program. Love to see us back in the hunt.
