Heard an interview with Finebaum recently where he said he talked to Croom about progress on racism and not a direct quote but it was to the effect that Croom did not feel like any progress had been made. This was broader than just sports but more about racism in America. Do not recall where I saw this but I found is surprising that from Croom's perspective things have not improved.
Better than Croom or Williams and it was still a piss poor hire.
Certainly didnt turn out to be good....
Shula was a band-aid. He stepped to the plate when Coach Moore was desperate and he had a plan to lean on some older more experienced guys. That leaning on them too much proved to be his undoing later. That 2005 season fooled a lot of people. They were humming along until the injury bug hit late in the season. Still managed a Cotton Bowl win that year.
I agree! Shula's heart was in the right place, he just wasn't ready to step in to a big program as the HC. Honestly, I don't think Croom would've faired much better considering the circumstances.
Much like the current POTUS....
Well, he may not have realized where he was, what time, or day it was, who he was talking to, and the subject at hand. So, c'mon Man, cut him some slack/s.
