This was from the mouth of Nick Quartaro while he was working at Western Reserve Life Insurance company with me. Look up who he is if you don't know.

Was this the meeting that took place at the LRS center, the church parking lot or the Circle K?

Who would do that? Everyone knows that in 10 short years CJS has a plan to get us to .500, some would even say he is way ahead of schedule 

You forgot to factor in the extra 10 years that CJS gets due to Covid, so we are really in year -9 of the 10 year plan

As such, we should be bowl eligible in 2040:roflmao:

I've spoken to a former player who told me that what went down in the locker room was not what was reported. **** shame...

It very much so did not go down the way it was reported. I’ll be honest, I blame Erskin the most for all this. Sure Brett too, but Colby is a little *****.

I talked to selvies backup immediately after it happened and he told me directly it was nothing that serious and nothing that other players havent gone through. Also, I was friends with ppl that were close to Joel a few years after and said his dad was the one pushing him to go forward. He also was pushing for a book deal to call people out.

Just what ive heard through the years, but to me the whole Leavitt thing was a ghost chase from what I've heard.

That would be interesting negotiating the contract:

The ship has sailed on him ever coaching here again, but I would love for the new admin to at least make amends enough to recognize and honor all that he did. It feels like the school likes to pretend he never existed for something that probably is pretty commonplace throughout college football.

Yes. It would be a nice gesture on the part of USF Athletics to give some public recognition to CJL. You hear all this rhetoric out of Athletics re: doing the right thing well, the right thing is to give a nod to CJL for getting this program into the National spotlight in a very short time. It isn't his fault where the program has gone as it digested and regurgitated coaches over the years.           Of course, CJL might just say Screw-Off ???

Ha! Just grin and bear it...it will make you stronger, faster and ride longer...........:yeahbaby:

It’s really pretty pathetic that it is still being discussed and people are living in the past wishing for something that is similar to Santa and the Easter Bunny…Great coach (greatest coach in our history), but for the love of Christ move on with your lives people.
