You should have stopped after your first sentence. That's fine, and folks would get that.
You're literally comparing Ga. Tech to Western Kentcuky. Ga Tech has won a national title in my lifetime. Now do western kentucky. While we're add it, lets compare which confrence they're in, number of draft picks they've put into the NFL, etc. Recruiting is arguably the most important aspect of being a RB coach, and you just admitted that having better accolades and a resume help recruit, but that it doesn't differentiate his ability to be a more effective coach? "Sure it helps recruit, and we all know recruiting is super important at the RB position, but it doesn't matter." That doesn't pass the smell test, dude.
Yes, carrington was never a coach. But people advocating TEACHING him to coach. You're advocating hiring an NFL analyist to teach this guy to fucking coach. Those were your words. Yes, you're looking for sunshine, but just admit that the reaching you're doing to get there is beyond absurd. You said pair him with an analyst who doesn't want to recruit, ie, get a real coach to teach, and you're somehow shocked that people are responding do that by suggesting maybe if you have to do that, it wasn't a great fucking hire?
