Message: [QUOTE="willtalk, post: 3354623, member: 1220"] You should listen to Katie Meiers pressers. Talk about critical! McCallie got beat up for anything she did. There was very little if any objectivity as far as she was concerned by hardcore Duke Fans. Where there was nothing to criticize they created issues. I was at the Duke-Cal game. Hass was packed and about as loud as it had ever been. The band is situated right by the opponents' bench for good reason. I remember it was so loud I couldn't even hear the person right next to me unless they had their mouth right next to my ear. Well during the breaks when the Duke coach would talk to the players the band would be playing right next to them. The story was that McCalley was so angry she was yelling at her players throughout the game. Total BS, Duke dominated and if there was any yelling it was because that was the only way she could be heard next to the band. They did this stuff all the time. I was very active on the Duke site for about 5 years but left because of the intense anti-McCalley negativity. I don't know her. Nor did I have an agenda with respect to her one way or the other, but I can say there was little objectivity by a very large number of Duke fans. This was while they were still relatively a top program and still bringing in top recruits. The fansite went from very active to a point where just one person was posting. I have one thing for people to consider. Has there ever been an instance where a teams fans have spent so much effort for so long a time running down their own coach on not only their own fan site, but on every WCBB fan site in existence? I am sure that helped their recruiting. But now they can attribute it all to McCalley. Self-serving prophesy. Oh and McCalley is still there. So what was the point? [/QUOTE]
