Montel Harris: Why the silence?

[Endless Mike]

I bet he comes back. I can't see him leaving. I think he has something to prove.

Manny, how'd you make this call so fast?

yeah for most of us it would have taken at least to the second post.

"positive!" =s Vinny

this line:

"if he just doesn't want to risk getting hurt playing for a team that might not win more than 3 games who can blame him."

makes me think it's not Vinny. Vinny is in constant 10-2 season at all times... just sayin'

Agreed. Vinny would be spouting the party line of "Montel was recruited by Jags he is a bad kid and not a BC guy and such".

[Onyx Blackman]

Better RBs on the roster.

I like this one. "Montel wanted to go somewhere he'd be guaranteed the starting job. We have a half dozen real hungry walk-on running backs plus a back-up kicker who might get some carries if he doesn't work out at safety. If Montel doesn't want to have to compete for a job then there's no point in having him around."

Jesus vinny how fucking out of the loop are you? You were still on staff at bc when mjh informed everyone he was not interested in playing for luigi anymore. You are a pathetic loser. GDIAF!

[The Don Killuminati]

Hey guys I'm new here so I guess I'm missing the joke. Oh well. A good friend of mine had a class with Montel two years ago and he said he seemed like a great kid, always so happy and very nice to everyone. I Would have liked to see him break the ACC record with BC. I wish him the best of luck though. BC guy through and through, but can't blame him for not wanting to be part of this mess.

That's the point, "Don". The fact that this program is in such shambles that a guy like Montel would even consider leaving should have Gene and Spaz' heads on a platter.

You say that here but on your twitter will blast everyone who thinks Spaz is a bad coach?

Clearly. Gene and Spaz are not protecting this house.

I'm not on twitter. Not a fan of it.... Think you guys have me mistaken for someone else. But I do agree that our football team is in tough shape. Some of my buddies and I went to the Virginia Tech game this year and we had Hookie fans telling us they felt bad. NOT A GOOD SIGN!

[HJS]

New posters are hard to come by. No need to attack anyone new just because you fear Vinny Higgins.

Something needs to be done!

Don... if you spend 5-minutes here you will quickly learn that the ONLY thing to be done is the termination of our self-inducted Hall of Fame Athletic Director, Eugene DeFilippo. The FB, men and women's BB and hockey programs were all moving along swimmingly until GDF interjected himself. He has shown an incredible ability to fail at each hiring decision he has ever made. He also has drastically cut (when compared to our conference mates) the amounts paid to coaches of the aforementioned sports. All while he himself makes twice the average of ACC conference ADs. To top it all off, he is known to be an absolute prick and is generally hated in the athletic community. Ticket sales are at an historic post-expansion low and Flynn Fund donations are at levels never seen since before the clumsy implementation of DBS.

Simply... GDF is the school's biggest problem. While this forum has a lot of dissenting opinions, the thoughts on Gene are the one unifying factor.

Agree with HJS, that's not Vinny, and we should welcome a new poster.

Besides, even if it were Vinny, we should welcome him back. That was a lot of fun when he almost got fired for posting here.

I think you can remove the word "almost" from your sentence. Unless... of course... you believe the PR statement that "Mr. Higgins has resigned due to health reasons and asks that people respect his and his family's privacy as he makes what we hope will be a full recovery."

But seriously, he got fired.

Out of curiosity, how'd you find the site?

I'd suggest you read the dictionary & history to get up to speed.

Not for nothing, but the dictionary is awfully dated now. With TOB, Skinner, and 74 long gone, and a lack of opposing teams' fans, most of the dictionary has lost its relevance.

Tranghese: Infamous Providence-based 400lb buffet raider. Was once supposedly tossed out of the Excalibur! casino in Las Vegas for slipping whole slices of prime rib into his suit pockets. Used to shop at big and tall - about seventeen years ago. Now just uses personal tailors. Opposed BC and Miami leaving the Big East because the addition of steamed lobster, clam chowder, and Cuban masitas de puerco to the ACC's rock solid lineup of barbecue, crabcakes, and southern cuisine would create an unstoppable buffet machine, leaving his conference buffets with only EZ Cheese, possum roadkill, and Jersey Mike's pork roll.

Made me laugh

Don you do not feel that coach flip is the problem? I would think someone like vinny would not go near statements like the ones homojs made. Just sayin'.

He very well may be... I don't really know how it works, as a fan and recent student I can tell that our teams (aside from Hockey) our going in the wrong direction. You all know better I would assume.

It's a figure of speech, like "when you're here, you're family."

You are still pretending to not be northendvinny, got it. We did know that Kevin Rogers was not sick and that Montel Harris was not happy playing for your pal luigi. We also said the program was heading in the wrong direction under spaz which you have said over and over was not correct. "I can't wait till Coach Spaz proves all the haters wrong! Build on this game" The Don Killuminati

I think pointing out the obvious does little without trying to identify the cause. For me, it all falls squarely on the incompetent soldiers of Eugene DeFilippo. I'm curious to what a newbie to this site believes... "I'm not sure" is not an option for someone who pretends to be such a hardcore fan that he has decided to join an online message board.
