I've been thinking about the two Eagle articles for awhile now. Molly Jabalis entry about Jane's post-Illinois State comment..."moral victory" just brought these thoughts to the surface again. Because i like Molly, and find her entries to be entertaining and fun, i did not want to comment on that same thread. Molly, in a good-natured way, poked fun at Jane saying that the 20 point loss to Ill St was a moral victory. What Jane actually said was,"Ted, I don't think you can really call it a moral victory, but..." and she went on with the positives of the game. This gives a different flavor to her comments, i think. Molly is a person having fun on a message board, and is not paid to be a journalist, though. So Molly's statement is really ok.
Suellentrop, however, is paid to write articles which give readers an accurate view of whatever the topic of his journalistic effort happens to be. His article made Albright appear to be arrogant (Who else will they get who is as good as me.) The idea of an arrogant Albright just does not fit with anything she has portrayed in almost 5 years. I find it hard to believe that she made that statement at all. If she did, however, it would be interesting to see how he laid out the "trap" to get words like that out of her and then see how he twisted it in the article. He then also tries to make us believe that she believes that her team was "horribly" coached last year. I have heard her discuss the things she identified to work on from a coaching perspective from reviewing last year...and how she went about improving them. She has talked about it on her radio show and in various chalk talks, etc. She never spoke of her team being "horribly" coached. She was just someone accepting responsibility and going about correcting things.
For Suellentrop to expect us to believe that she believes both of those statements together...is just crazy. A person either believes they're the greatest...OR that they did a horrible job...NOT BOTH. Which one does he think she really believes? I think that He didn't care which she believed...he just wanted to do a HATCHET job.
Lutz, on the other hand, I can respect. He simply recorded FACTS about wins, losses, team performance characteristics...and then stated his opinion as to what Schaus should do about the WBB program. He was even willing to say that Coach Albright is a good person or something like that. I doubt that he would think she was a good or neat person or whatever he said, if she said and/or believed both of those statements that Suellentrop attributes to her. I even wonder to myself....if Bob Lutz could be open about this, what did HE think of Suellentrop's hatchet job?
Oh well, enough for now....
