Interesting thought exercise from the postgame coverage

[Black Diamond Vol]

What if Mike White had accepted Dave Hart’s job offer in 2014? First of all, Rick Barnes doesn’t come here a year later. That’s a given.

But then imagine that White was just so-so like he was at UF. Odds are we either fire him or our “special” fanbase runs him off after 3-4 years. That means his Brother probably doesn’t come here. Neither does Heupel. Maybe whomever our AD would’ve been doesn’t beat LSU’s offer to retain Tony Vitello, assuming Vitello even gets hired in the first place.

So in essence, we had to endure one season with Donnie Tyndall to save our entire athletic department. 🤯😉

Wow, mind blowing!

I guess the lesson here is to let the wound heal slowly.  Don't rip off the scab!

What if we hadn't hired Dooley in 2010?  As long as we are playing "what if". 

Of course, then Hamilton would still have been AD.
