    Somebody PLEASE tell me one sport we are BETTER in since Mike Garrett got fired.

    • Trojanpete

      Right, but remember–Haden says he “sees the future and it is bright.” Don’t question the Rhodes Scholar because “nobody loves his alma mater more” than he does–he loves it more than us regular two-armed, two-legged inferiors.

        Not quite. It may be “bright”, but so far it’s been pretty “dim” under Haden. Both on the field (all sports) and in the department.

        • Trojanpete

          I was joking. When people questioned his decision to keep Lane, he said something like “no, people can’t see the future like I can and I know it’s bright.” In other words, he can’t handle any criticism.

            Yeah, he just like Obama, clueless

            BTW, neither of you answered the question. It’s NONE.

            Takes a lot of time to fix what ironhead mike did, sadly the guy who replaced him is a dufus

            So name ONE sport. You can’t. Another PH boot licker. Right, MG ruined all our sports with his 19 or so National Championships.

            What do you think PH should have accomplished in his two-and-a-half years as AD?

          • http://twitter.com/FatBooster Joe Blow

            At least the same number of NCs as before…didn’t. And at least one more OR get a good baseball coach, basketball coach, women’s BB coach. Solidify the department. Scott is right, there is something wrong up there. PH should also have put up more of a fight with the NCAA .

    • rusoviet

      Uhh let’s see well we’re better because our AD isn’t sneering at an oversight board that can and did torpedo our football program. We’re better because our academic mgmt. is no longer afraid of an arrogant AD who alienated everyone he encountered. Best of all Darryl Gross got out with his reputation intact because it was he who made the coacing moves that you big boy assume were Garrett’s.

      Imagine being in OK this time of year and still more the middle of nowhere. Oh how the mighty have fallen – good riddance to bad news Mike Garrett.

      • http://twitter.com/FatBooster Joe Blow

        So what sport are you referring to? Exactly. Another PH kiss @$$. It’s obvious MG didn’t care for you at all. BTW, smart @$$, ANY CEO will get good people around him to make decisions. Obviously nobody is helping you out cleanting the heads. You are a nobody at SC.

        • http://twitter.com/FatBooster Joe Blow

          BTW @$$hole, were the lousy hires due to The Shadow? Oh, you’re not an insider. The Shadow is Gross.

    Garrett fired Gillespie which got us Krueter which got us Cruz. Garrett hired Bibby, Floyd, Majerus which got us nowhere. He hired Kiffin. MG was a F up and don’t tell me about the H20 coach, he was here and fell in his lap, Garrett doesn’t even know what water polo is.

    • steveg

      I agree, the whole world is a better place with MG gone from USC.

    • http://twitter.com/FatBooster Joe Blow

      Both of you are wrong. First, you don’t like Mike because he could care less about you two and many other fans/alums. Second, Gillespie SHOULD have been fired. He hadn’t done crap in years. Gillespie IS the reason we got Krueter. If you have any inside sources you’d know. MG would NOT have put up with Kiff’s crap OR the Locker room crap. PERIOD. Mike loved Yovan. You honestly don’t know what you are talking about. Funny, NOW it’s MG that made all the bad hires and yet gets NO credit for Pete. If you don’t think MG got advice before hiring Floyd, Bibby, etc., you’re crazy. Finally, SC is NOT a better place without Garrett OR Sample.

        Have you ever french kissed Mike Garrett?

        • Independent_George

          Cause I think you are in LOVE!

          It’s Valentine’s Day. Did you fly to Oklahoma to be with your sweetie Mikey?

          • http://twitter.com/FatBooster Joe Blow

            I’m sure he didn’t like you. Probably didn’t even know or care who you were.

          • Independent_George

            Since I never wrote him love letters, he would have no reason to.

          • http://twitter.com/FatBooster Joe Blow

            You just answered the call. You’re a nobody.

        If only the Fat Booster was here to settle this debate!
