Price Meet & Greet

Sauce I can forgive but if it ain’t got smoke it’s a joke. Additionally that BBQ kept me up half the night with indigestion. Peach cobbler was pretty damn good though.

are we actually going to have 2 home game on campus vs Wake Forest or at TWC and hopefully we schedule Cincy, Louisville and other old CUSA teams that would be awesome next year or in the near future or at least face Cincy every year like we do vs Davidson

According to some fans who know all the answers, those home games against Wake are in Halton. :slight_smile:

All the Wake home games are in Halton

thanks jags. any other updates from practice you can give us? can you give us a comparison between the practices of major versus price/

AWESOME!! Note to AD: do NOT make ANY of these games BLACKOUTS. Clue: Black is one of wake’s 2 school colors. That is all.

Alan was a very good teacher but Mark absolutely commands the conversation. He was taking it easy last night letting the guys have some fun and letting the assts run things. Reg practice takes on a much more professional tone. No yelling but certainly can get after them. Mark simply has credibility that comes with excelling at the level these guys want to reach.

That is the best article I have read on Price yet. I give it up to Judy, she gave credit to one of her senior advisors (I am thinking it is Spease) for coming up with Price as a candidate. I believe Price when he says he wants to build something special here. We are going to be good, it may time but we are going to be good.

I had no idea that Tech past Price over for Gregory, that is huge for us. I don’t think he leaves us for Tech now.

I don’t see how that could ruin the relationship. He had no head coaching experience. It’s just hard to put a coach with no experience in a P5 program like tech. If he success here and they need a coach they will be all over him.

I don’t think price would cut out on us after 1 year honestly.

Then I don’t think you understand relationships very well. Not like they passed him over for some can’t miss coach that they could pass up, that hired a coach who needed to get out of Dayton because there was rumbling there about his lack of results(See 2 NCAA appearances in 8 yrs). And I would contend that GT hiring Price was no more of a stretch than us hiring him.
