[QUOTE="Limey Frog, post: 2772373, member: 16969"] No doubt about this; you're spot on. I spent the weekend with friends who cheer for various other teams, and we all went to a non-TCU football game together. In conversation after the Frogs' one of them praised GP's achievements in his time at TCU and I affirmed that he is, indeed, the only head-coach for TCU. It's his place in every sense, absolutely. Further, while his defense stinks this particular year, his track records gives me full confidence that his unit will be playing better by November than they are now (they always do), and he'll go back to the drawing board and improve for next year (he always has). I'm just frustrated because I feel like we're wasting talent. Then it all comes back to GP's one tragic flaw: excessive-loyalty to his subordinates, and his apparent inability to develop underlings who are as good at coaching as he is. I suppose if he'd had ADs telling him whom/when to fire, he would have left long before now for a bigger job and we'd have been up poop creek again with no Big XII, stadium, Rose Bowl, etc. This year is just the pound of bitter that comes with the dram of sweet. But message boards are here to vent frustration by griping about it, aren't they? Go Frogs. [/QUOTE]
