Ricks is entitled to say whatever he wants. But that doesn’t mean fans have to agree.

And I believe his heart is in the right place, but (like Hannon), he would’ve been better off saying nothing.

Didn't even need to watch the video. Saw Sofield and this clown sitting there and knew it was going to be rich. We will remember it in 30 years if our program just ended their reign of national relevance last night. We will remember it real well.

Pretty soon those temp bleachers won’t be needed. Just roll it back to 20k at home games

He married well, and good for him. We should not however listen to him for advice of running a D1 football program.

Loser talk at the highest levels.

Once this guy’s $10 million gift or whatever the commitment was is cashed we should tell him to kick rocks.

He is handicapping us

Those memories would of never existed without the wins. Does he not realize how short sighted this is?

Just go look at the ULMs of the world.

Scary. Wow.

Agreed. He knows nothing about football and if he wants mediocrity he can go to Charlotte and support them.

I am pretty sure that Tommy does not 100% agree with what Mark was saying. Also, some of us who did not destroy all our brain cells drinking after do remember scores. Wins and losses do matter. Ricks does not speak for everyone.

OTOH, do comments like that signal something else entirely? One wonders.

Also…seeing how visibly uncomfortable Sofield was during Ricks’ statement, it would’ve been priceless to see the reactions of others at the BOT meeting during Mark’s monologue.
