I think this is the reaction Philbin was trying to get from the team
I'm sure he read Bootang25's letter and was inspired to act.
Move on by going 2-2.
He apologized for the distraction, not for what he saidJoe did not think any of this through hence his apology yesterday.
Awful leader.
Agreed. But Philbin should have known it would happen. And if he planned it to motivate RT17 then as the old saying goes, be careful what you wish for. IMO either way Philbin looks not so smart.No, the fact that the media blew this out of proportion (as usual) is a joke!
I can't believe ANYONE would actually believe anything you just said here. To think that any of the players care or would be concerned about any of this is just flat out ridiculous to me. I'm sure they're rolling their eyes at the media's stupid assumptions.
I only played HS football, but I hated everyone of my coaches. They were all verified a-holesObviously RT needs to take this public stance, but you would have to be dense to believe that their relationship isn't irreparably harmed by now. These two will never have a good relationship again, if they even had one to begin with. It's like a Ireland/Sparano strained relationship now.
And I also think other players saw this whole thing and lost pretty much all respect for Philbin, because if he can do that to the starting QB, he can do that to any of them.
If we lose this game I think Ross fires Philbin before the team boards the plane.That's the only way to do it. 1-3 and the **** hits the fan.

Philbin had poor execution on this, for sure, but I think he did have a plan
