Re: Article about the QB situation

Coach made it very clear to me in our interview that Maguire was ahead. Said Lauletta at Richmond was a bit of an unknown last year too, but the staff just had a hunch about him and it paid off.

Re: Coach Fisher

Not surprised in the least. Making the playoffs out of the MVFC is like surviving Parris Island -- which should be especially pertinent with you guys. Coach and I talked about the Leatherneck mascot, just like I talked the 'fear of the spider' with Rocco.

Coach Fisher

Had a great talk with Coach Fisher yesterday. Incredibly approachable, and everybody knows the resume. His offense at Richmond was incredible and when we talked to Coach Rocco with the Spiders last week, he praised coach Fisher - and of course Rocco's son David is now on staff at WIU. With that line...
