Been trying to figure out who mensa reminds me of, kinda like Ari Spyros character in Billions?
He’s immature and insecure,, he not a leader, he doesn’t have it.. Listen to an interview with guys who have been to the top like Dabo or Urban, it’s confidence. After a loss Mensa, gets so nervous, on the edge of tears and playing with a water bottle that you just want to smack the pussy out of him.
He mistook base camp for the top of the mountain when he got the UT job, and he spent so much time congratulating himself and rolling around in his new found money and position that it took him 3 years to figure out the summit is still a long fucking way up..
his #1 job as HC is to continually identify good coaches who can also recruit and replace them when they get poached or fire them if they suck. 3 years in and no one has been poached, but he was pressured to fire most of his staff and he still missed a few. He did go get some unemployed coaches as consultants and to fill out his new staff. But the difference with Saban and Urban is they actually get good former HCs who got canned because they fucked up while Mensa finds guys who got fired for being shitty coaches.
he wasn’t experienced enough for the job, and I don’t think he has enough leadership ability to ever succeed here. He gave us an uptick in recruiting but that’s going to dry up quick, already seeing it in 21 class. And the recruiting upgrades don’t matter if we aren’t developing them and getting guys drafted.
CDC you’re going to have to pull the trigger sooner than later. The higher you aim for a replacement the easier it will be to find money.
