Omar is a dumbass
What’s particularly funny about him is that in addition to being dead wrong on Mullen, especially compared to Taggart, his retort is “some of you thought Mac was great”. Well, no, not exactly Omar. Most of us tried to be supportive of him while he was here(you know, what actual fans do), acknowledged the good, and held out hope that with a few changes he could do better. We had no choice.
But even as wrong as that turned out, the fact is even Mac—who was nobody’s first choice—has a winning record. In very comparable sample size, including multiple stints at bad programs, and a total of 2.5 years at the P5 level, McElwain is 52-33, while Taggart is 56-62. Willie may need the rest of his career, and some good breaks along the way, just to catch the winning percentage of one James Lamont McElwain.
I can’t even imagine how embarrassing it must be to have hitched your wagon to that star, only to find out that a guy who doesn’t brush his teeth and never wears socks can coach circles around him. If there was ever a moment that necessitated that “slapping hand down in hysterical laughter” emote, this would be it.
