I notice no last names???
What do these people expect? Life time contracts without accountability. If that is what they
expect they should be Gamecock supporters. That ad should have been done in garnet and black.

on the issue, Leggett's firing could've/should've been handled better
Just a word of warning: Regardless of who is hired as the next Tiger HC, if there's a
precipitous drop-off next year, everyone who came out strongly in public advocating Leggett's
dismissal will themselves face a lot of "heat" from some of the folks who placed this ad.

I appreciate that they feel badly for him but the difference between his first 13 years as head coach and the last 9 years is striking! A change was needed to get the baseball program back on track.

Year and the AD have him another shot. Guess what? He tanked again. Sorry but he drove this proud program down the last several years while doing nothing to make it better. He's gone and I'm happy for. Hopefully we will soon welcome in the C of C head man...

Wish I could have chipped in. Jack was a fine example of a true Tiger.

Jack is class all the way; he's probably embarrased by this,

even though I'm sure he appreciates the support. Again, I don't know how it all went down between Jack and DRad, so maybe something was said or done behind closed doors that was would warrant the "you deserved better" sentiment; but if that sentiment is based merely on the fact that Jack was canned, then it's totally baseless; for God's sake, it was time for a change and it's time to move on.

He's supposedly on vacation and completely unplugged. This was meant far more for the administrations attention than for Leggett.

until he got up at the IPTAY meeting in Columbia in February of 2011 and essentially chewed the a$$ of all the IPTAY Reps, Donors, etc in the room. You must not have been at that meeting, or you probably wouldn't be saying he is "class all the way." Maybe most of the things he does, he does with class. But not on that night.

This was after the 2010 season where we had gone 6-7.

There was a lot of b!itching and moaning "out there" from disgruntled fans. It wasn't necessarily the message he was trying to deliver, but the way he came across. Very arrogant and with a poor, negative attitude towards the people that essentially pay his salary.
