Oleary Radio show tonight (Tue) 740am/96.9fm 7pm
- Thread starter Central Floridave
- Start date
so the opposite of Spurrier. double down on being an asshole to the fans, Hitt good luck selling season tickets if you bring this selfish grump back
It'll be a better game day experience with only the "hard core" fans in attendance. It sure will be a lot quieter.
He never said we would beat temple. He mentioned that there are 8 seniors on Temples defense and they are real good. Also said you could see Temple improve from a couple years ago and he said in the spring he picked Temple to really really good (in which they are).
I didn't get in the radio show that he was being an asshole to the fans. In contrast he insinuated the fans are being assholes to the team. He actually complimented the fans for sticking it out this bad year. He did mention fans who have given up though. Which is expected at Oh and Six.
He touched on Spurrier, the youth of the team, giving up AD duties, etc. Said UCF football will be fine and the players who are getting experience now will be really good in the future.
Do I agree with it? Eh, whatever, just win!

Honestly I thought it was a pretty worthless show. Marc Daniels is afraid to ask the tougher questions because he knows George doesn't like them. Don't get me wrong I think Marc Daniels does a fantastic job normally. I would've asked questions like these:
Will we target JUCO players and potential graduate transfers to help speed up our growth?
Why has Dontravious Wilson not played at RB? He was out there on special teams so obviously health isn't the reason.
What's the status on Tristan Payton? Are the coaches aware of his tweets favoring UF and hinting that he regrets coming here over UF?
TJ Mutcherson (Iowa State transfer safety) played well in reserve last week..will we see more of him in the upcoming games?
Why is that we constantly switch out WR's after every play or 2..why not keep the same group of 3-4 receivers out there and let them get into a rythm?

Call me a damn fool for expecting O'Loser to man up and take responsibility. I was once a proud supporter of "O'Leary Football" but it's obvious that the game has passed him by. Yes, GOL has taken this program from obscurity to name recognition -- and we thank him for that, but now it's time to bow out gracefully because, as much as he doesn't want to admit it, he's more of an obstacle rather than an asset to the future growth of our program.
He has answered all of the above questions...either over last few weeks or again last night.
1) Has talked about the risk of signing JUCO's (some take a year to assimilate to Div I-A level...and then you just have 1 year of potential good play...plus how many JUCO's are just flat out misses (at many schools).
2) Everyone has known Wilson got injured in the FIU Game (first half I believe) and was out for weeks with an injury...then faced some team punishment for breaking team rules.
3) He has talked about Payton the last few shows...especially after he got injured at Tulane and has been out since (cast on hand/wrist) but might play this weekend.
4) When you have constant injuries...from Akins, Payton, Franks (multiple times), plus poor play (too many drops), you have to rotate WR to find those that are healthy and then hopefully dependable.
