Hahah It's a fun scene, but I never for a moment bought that Nicholson's character would walk into such an obvious trap. Aaron Sorkin loves speeches that no one would give in real life.

It was obvious. He wasn’t trapped. He was too egotistical to hide. Watch the movie/play again. 1 Link to comment

We use a similar process with a company that has their recruiters reach out to potential office candidates for us, utilizing our job description without sharing our company name to gauge interest in our position to keep it discreet. The recruiter will then present their findings to us and we look over their resumes and their conversation with the recruiter and decide if we want to take it further. Its nothing set in stone and mainly information gathering to make sure we hit the ground running if a change is made versus trying to react and possibly have down time by a rash decision. Completely different industry for sure, but a handy method if necessary. That is commonplace in my experience also and I have been in several different industries over the years. Doesn’t always work out, but when I have to let people go, I always try to get the replacement lined up in advance Link to comment

Was able to twice get teams to good records at Temple and Baylor. His NFL record was not good but that can be said for many other college power 5 coaches. I was a little excited when I saw he had been released by the Panthers. As I looked up his numbers , his 3 recruiting classes at Baylor were #39 - #29 - #40. He was able to attract a lot of Texas kids which would be much more difficult from Lincoln Nebraska. Plus the dude will make $864,000 a month from Carolina for 4 1/2 years if he doesn't take a job somewhere. Is he motivated to jump in with both feet and rebuild this program or does he need a year to recharge his batteries raking in money hand over fist. Now if he would agree to work for a dollar a year and let Carolina pick up the tab and allow him to get two great well paid coordinators then we might be able to make something work. Another plus would be NIL which he didn't have at Baylor or Temple. NIL has brought in some good skill people this spring and summer but both O and D line still need help. Link to comment

It’s a library alright. Facts, fiction and everything in between. Myths are like dandelion seeds. A couple of plants then before you know it the whole lawn is filled with them! Link to comment

And hasn't been for at least 2 decades and going. prove me wrong, Trev. Please prove me to be an idiot. I want to be one in this case. To be fair the leadership from the AD on down has been less than stellar the last 10 years. Moos and Eichorst were dumpster fires. One stuck his finger in the air to see what the popular opinions were and the other chose to hire a coach who was just the opposite of the coach who stole his lunch money. I'm still pi$$ed at the high recommendation Barry Alvarez gave for Eich. He knew exactly what he would do to the Husker programs. Like you I do hope Trev can break the cycle of hiring underwhelming head coaches. 1 1 Link to comment

I got a chuckle learning that. It’s something that might be given to adolescents at summer camp. It’s a nifty positivity book without a lot of depth. Mr. Sunshine probably would’ve been better off promoting listening and effective conflict resolution during his tenure. 1 Link to comment

That's quite the gymnastics routine. Also, his claim was significantly different than yours. I always was quite agile and nimble ...and hey, at least I admit when I'm wrong Link to comment

But yeah, you are right, the way he walked into it was sort of lame. But it gave us good lines! Link to comment
