I hate that I have to preface my comments but I would like to avoid the onslaught. I will start by saying I’m so excited for a new chapter and I am even more excited that the fan base “appears” to be rejuvenated (at least until our first loss). I guess after the last few years we all want hope. Can CJS motivate people and is he doing the right thing with his approach? I think so. 

Where I get confused is the “he is an amazing communicator” comments over and over again. I mean I guess and maybe it’s the field I work in where I am continually exposed to motivational speakers. The press conference was ok. He s media interviews decent. Does he make me want to run through a wall? No. Does he inspire me ? No. But also I’m not a football player so maybe to them that’s what they need. And I get we are all motivated by different things. 
 

It’s not a bad thing but I think people are just thinking everything is amazing and I hope it will be. My rationale mind just struggles with those comments and wondering what I’m missing?? But hey if this team and fan base are 100% for it that’s great because my excitement for USF has always been there. 

Contrast bias.  But, I do think that his personality and extroversion are just what is needed here.

He's George Patton compared to Chuck.

It's also the energy level and enthusiasm.

He is more energy and no non-sense like CJL. He has a passion and I hope he backs up his words with action. He is my favorite hire of any coach since the JIM. He is the polar opposite of Chuckles, and if he lose he seems to ateast care put a fire under the boys rear. Only time will tell, but it has potential to be a great hire. I have learned to hold my expectations until I see results being a  Bucs, Bulls, and Lightning fan .
