How many follows did you get, Petey, after the shoutouts?

How many follows did you get, Petey, after the shoutouts?

Over 80 follows on twitter and still counting! I went on an Action Network pod with Stuckey last night that also has a big following so that was a small piece of it, but I bet the Kap shoutouts get me over a hundred extra through today.

Bumping some hastily written ruminations on the program and coaching search. Let's recruit again, dammit:

Hoping Petey gets the exclusive first interview of the new coach once announced.

I hopped on the pod with the boys to talk reactions to Dave's ouster, our top problems with the old regime, what we want to see in new candidates and the issue with alumni. Had a lot of fun returning to my Mason basketball roots!

It was a great listen!

Thunderstruck as an opening song would be awesome. I taught at a high school that did it and the students would stomp on the bleachers to make the bass drum sounds of the opening and it got people extra hyped. Could easily have the lower student section and the pep band do that with the guitarist going off on that opening riff and the whole crowd doing the chant.

Imaging that in my head right now, I’d love to be in that crowd.

One of my biggest pet peeves has been the team coming out to zombie nation since like 2001. Love this.

If we are going to come out to a zombie song it better be Zombie by the Cranberrys.

A different twist to “Thunderstruck”

Just finished it. Really nice work as always. Thanks

 

[GMU79]

Good stuff, thanks. First time I've ever heard a sit down with Edwards. Sounds like a real down to earth guy.

Top to bottom, everyone in the AD is saying literally all the right things right now. Looking forward to watching them execute on all these things over the next few years, this just feels different than the last few times. Honestly, even if it is just talk at this point this is miles ahead of where we were in the past -- the fact that they are even just saying the stuff they are saying shows that they are listening. For all you long time fans out there -- did it always feel like the AD has listened to you in the past? Because for me personally -- it feels like they are listening now.

Great sit down, enjoyed listening to it.

I had several chats with TOC. Very arrogant. Every suggestion I made about a change, he had a ready-made answer. His attitude was like "why are you even bothering me?" This is so refreshing.

For the most part I didn't start talking to AD folks until Brad's regime, but the few conversations I had previous were always good. I haven't spoken to Brad all that much, only at Media Day 2019, and it was mostly about non sports stuff and he sorta just talked. I think I might have even zoned out at parts but regardless.

I also think now that we have a president who likes basketball a lot, the folks in the AD can really use that to their advantage. Mason is still going to be Mason with athletics to a degree, but I don't think there is going to need to be as much selling or convincing from them to others..
