Outside the staff? Awwwww man I was hoping he'd have Jason Epps on, lol. Wow, I remember the days very vividly when we only had one assistant. Ain't no wonder we can't afford locker rooms. An all black coaching staff is awesome too. That will inevitably bring some hard raw talent to the hamlet of E-burg. That is, if it's not just about who has the most money. Somehow I just cant see how some kids would want to play for a Tom Moore or Andy Toole, I'd easily go to the new Mount crew myself.
ReplyDeleteThis is great news for the team. These guys add consistency needed for these young men to excel. The coaching staff are all young and hungry and committed.
