Tim Beckman- Facebook and Charity stuff
« on: February 19, 2012, 08:16:22 PM »
Guys I dont know whether Beckman is gonna be a great coach but he sure is a great guy, have him as a FB friend and he posts stuff on his fan page, I copied a link of some photos with the team doing some hospital visits, if you are on FB you can see them

http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150624868134511.407765.67127334510&type=1

also he is a pretty gung ho guy, he posts during the basketball games just like a fan. Hard not to like the guy

If he surrounds himself with good coaches and allows them to do their job it will be an upgrade.

Yeah, he is doing a great job at saying the right things.  Which at this point is pretty much all he can do.

But I have also heard some positive changes and culture (from actual players).

I like the guy, built Toledo back to respectability from the depths of a point shaving scandal.  He has a plan and he has an excellent resume with some pretty good mentors.  I see him taking us to a consistant level of bowls, major bowls.
