JohnnyJumpUp Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Please tell us more about your first wife and how she validates ford thanks He's basically saying his first wife was beautiful and had a good job, but all that didn't matter because she couldn't suck a D or cook a good meal. So while Ford is not the most beautiful, hopefully he can suck a D and cook a good meal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billboy1 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 SLU could have looked longer for a better option and if they really wanted TF he still would have been there-nobody beating down his door to hire him. Would like the story on whether or not Drew was really pursued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So while Ford is not the most beautiful, hopefully he can suck a D and cook a good meal. This ranks with "fat women with small breasts" as one of the greatest analogies in Billikens.com history.

Billboy1 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Knowing the way this operation operates hardly speculating other programs were not beating down the door for our new coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slufan13 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Who gives a how it went down. Crews tanked the program. May didn't want to hire an assistant. The best we could do was this underachiever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old guy Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Please tell us more about your first wife and how she validates ford thanks As per your request biliken roy. My first wife was not a basketball player, in fact she hated the sport. She does not validate Ford in any way imaginable. She was just used as an example of people or situations that appear to be perfect and later on they are found to be far far from even acceptable. It is like saying 'beware of what you wish."

Pistol Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Ford wouldn't have been my choice, but I'll support him. Hopefully he hits the ground running with recruiting and gets our talent level up to where it should be. We can worry about game coaching later.

b.hayes Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Welp, big gulps eh? Good luck to Coach Ford and the Bills. Hope to be sitting in a raucous Chaifetz once again, and soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he hits the ground running with recruiting and gets our talent level up to where it should be. We can worry about game coaching later.[/quote I think it has to be easier to recruit than game coach. However, experience coaching at the B12 levels is certainly going to be helpful. He is 46, he is not the same coach that coached UMASS. He is now more experienced and likely better, just by having coached 8 more years.....if he gets our talent level up, brings in a stud like the guy he had at UMASS, as I recall 6-8 240....he will have the chance to show he has grown as a coach....look forward to the press conference and a fresh batch of Kool-Aid......

He can be in Houston by the weekend to firm things up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
