It fits right into your budget theory Dooms of 100K max and no more. Who do you go with?

Is it safe to say that Wheels knows all three personally? (not sure if he knows Frazier well)

we need a coach who upon the announcement would energize the team and the fans. only one of the above can do that, and that's frazier...

Naw, Frazier just energizes you because you've heard of him.
I'm willing to bet that the average A&T fan has not heard of Frazier, but has heard of Rags. More have probably heard of Lee than Frazier simply because Lee coached here (and FAMU, and Hampton, and Morgan, who'd I miss?). Therefore, would they be energized by him?
I'm sure once they read his bio they'd be energized, but these are the same people that were energized when they read Lee Fobbs' bio. They could read Julia Childs' bio if she was announced as coach and get excited if it was worded right.
I'm comfortable with all of them. But if it comes down to money y'all can kiss Frazier goodbye. The other two would take the job for fifty grand.

There is not one A&T fan besides you who would be energized by the hiring of Alonzo Lee as our head coach.
Anyone who reads his bio will see that HE GOT FIRED FROM A&T just 3 years ago.
Can we please start making decisions that would help this football program improve, not go backwards. Is that too much to ask?

I'm not the least bit energized by Lee. None of them energize me.
Anyone who reads english can see where I typed I'm COMFORTABLE with all of them. Well, almost anyone.
p.s. "How ya doin?"

I don't care for any of them, especially someone we already fired! I think we'd have to pay Frazier at least $165k since he already makes 130k at PV.
Why can't we look outside the HBCU circle?!

The only good news here is that we haven't hired a coach. If these are really and truly the finalist; 1.) Lord help us, 2.) why isn't the interview process done, and 3.) is there really any competition?

The other two would take the job for fifty grand. has lee ever been a head coach before? has lee ever turned a "perennial" losing program around? how can anyone get excited over another assistant that's never been a head coach before? the only way anyone that's not brain dead could get excited over lee being our next coach is after they've had 3 or 4 shots of hennessy...
