gailey gets a free pass on the academic problems we are experiencing if:
1. He was astute enough to query the holdover assistant coaches as to what they think the coaching staff needs to do in regard to academics... (What I've heard is that they told him & he knew. If anyone else heard differently I'd be interested to hear it)
2. After finding out from the assistant coaches that the changes that braine made regarding academics will be disastrous, he was on a crusade.... getting in braine's face on a regular basis, trying to make changes... I.E., fighting for the academic lives of his players...
3. After identifying the problem and battling braine... He was astute enough to find a "work around"... Doing everything he could to overcome the additional barrier placed in front of him..
If gailey did these things I will give him a free pass... If not, then a large portion of this academic mess lays at his feet.. The young men are his responsibility... Lets face it, good leaders identify problems & solve them before the fact.... not after..
