When Willie, et al, deliver the blue chips, all will be forgotten. 

I agree and think that is why he needs to deliver sooner rather than later - which sucks for him.  

I have decided I want him to succeed after a brief angry period but I am not that emotionally invested enough to care all that much.  I just find the whole dynamic interesting.

they suspened the strength coach for 1 month w/o pay! this is a big deal and Willie has already have had to go to the podium and say "I'm sorry." Holy crap he's already knee deep in duck ****. LOL LOL LOL. good luck now.

Now there's talk of a potential for a law suite b/c our former strength coach and now theirs apparently doesn't have the credentials .  This is serious and espn is all over it.

This could reflect poorly on us with respect that we didn't catch that the strength and conditioning coach didn't have at least a bachelors and we let him coach here. This entire situation for willie means you better win this year or your out.

He has a Masters even, just no degree in Sport Science but with the right experience a specific degree isn't necessary in most fields IMO. 

 

Oderinde earned a bachelor’s degree in recreation administration from WKU in 2003 and a master’s degree in sport management from WKU in 2007.

Those aren't terribly close, despite both being "sports" related. A friend of mine is a professor of Sports Management and his main area of expertise is ticket pricing. Specifically, dynamic ticket pricing and the secondary market. He has zero knowledge of being an athletic trainer.

Who here would trust their children's health care to someone that had a degree in Hospital Management, but never attended medical school?

And that's fine and dandy but Coach O has had on the job training at numerous universities on top of his degrees. If you read the post I quoted he made it sound like this was a Masiello situation and it was not. Hell Shaun King has a Marketing degree; same as me so I guess I'm as qualified to coach our running backs as him. Only problem is he has the experience to back his position on the staff up where I have worked in business since graduating. His experience makes him qualified not his degree. 

 

In medicine, law and scholastics I agree a specific degree is warranted but I don't expect my personal trainer to have a masters in exercise science. And although S&C coaches get paid more than your average personal trainer that is essentially what they are.

The UF S&C coach was the very first one I looked up and I'm guessing he is more the norm, education wise, than those coming out of college with an S&C specific degree. There may be more coming out now but it appears to be something that wasn't really a requirement, with experience from working up the ranks being the key.
