Did they really let him go or did he run when things got hard?
True Lion. Funny how you think that the coach makes the player. You must be a C average fan if you were Better you would know C like all the other coaches are only in on it for the personal glory or else your C would have never left your Lions Den!
Relax, Like coach C had anything to do with it either. He got this offer while at JC, befire you go pumping your/his chest. Booth deserves the credit here, not his coaches. His coaches just did what they’re supposed to do.
Is your comment satirical ????
