That's pretty funny. However, I'm not in either retreat or surrender mode. I just said that I would be satisfied if we landed an OC as good as or better than TR, which is far from obvious at this point. And BTW, I think Rees is a good OC that will only get better with time. Pray tell, since you sound like you're satisfied with how the process is going, which realistic candidate would you consider a home run hire? Ludwig? No better than Rees IMHO. Parker? No comment. Please inform us as to why you think this whole process is going so well.
And BTW, I probably lived in the US, including South Bend, for more years than you, Mr. All American.
