RE: Are you happy with the Tim Lester hire?
I voted no, but since, I have come around to feeling that this is a good hire. I have faith in Kathy and her ability to find good coaches that will raise our sports programs.
Tim Lester has had a lot of success in coaching. He is young and though not as much as PJ, he is energetic. For those that are worried that we are going to go back to Cubit's offence, I remind you that we had a great running game when Tim played under Darnell and I feel that Tim believes that establishing a solid run game with a potent passing attack is the key to victory.
Lastly, Coach Lester will dedicate his life to keeping us on top while growing us further as a national program. Tim loves this school and he bleeds brown and gold......after all, his fricken name painted on the stadium's wall for Christ's sake!

RE: Are you happy with the Tim Lester hire?
As with all coaches I will give him 3-5 years. I do like the hire but, as I said with the previous coach, if he loses the support of his student athletes and they start mailing it in in the second half of games, I will side in favor of the student athletes before I side with any coach. That said, I have almost finished catching up on almost two full pages of unread threads. I support Kathy B. in all the decisions she makes because more times than not she has been spot on (i.e. Hawkins, Murray, the previous football HC, Clipfell who has the women's basketball team rolling this season, and all the other teams who are succeeding under coaches she has hired). I love this hire and after listening to Coach Lester I see great things continuing to happen down on Stadium Drive.
