I dont have a dog in this fight but I'm not really following when everyone says Eric should have gone to the coach directly. Going to the coach directly wouldn't solve anything. Eric sees the results and believes they should be better. Obviously Coach Bickley does not see the need for change or he himself would leave. A conversation between the two would solve nothing.

I am not commenting on whether change is needed or not, I really don't know. But I really feel all Eric is doing is demanding excellence. If the fans, boosters, administrators, etc. begin to view the results as unacceptable thats how change taking place, leading me to believe this not an inappopriate way of going about things. Maybe Eric is right, maybe hes wrong, I don't really know, but I'd hate to see a guy faulted to much for refusing to settle for mediocrity.
