Lloyd and the Player's Thoughts on RR

Submitted by umjdg on

More curious than anything, but was hoping that someone here has some legit ties into the program/players and could provide insight into what the players think of RR, and whether or not they are buying into his leadership, his staff and his system.  In the Press conference today, he mentioned that he wished he had a chance to get to know the players better prior to the season starting. This makes me wonder if he feels as though he is having a tough time getting them to buy in to the system, or feels like they are loosing confidence in him. 

Also, It is pretty evident that in terms of personality, you can’t get any further apart than Lloyd and RR, so I was also wondering if anyone heard what Lloyd’s original thoughts were on the RR hire and what type of relationship they have now. I know most of you who didn’t like Lloyd will probably say who cares, doesn't matter..etc..but for some reason I am interested in the team dynamics and politics....maybe b/c we suck and there isn't much else to talk about other hope for the future.

Lloyd was supposedly doing his best to thwart hiring Les Miles, seems to me he has been positive on RR.  I'm sure it pains him to see us having a tough season but Carr is a pretty patient sort of guy so I doubt his hair is on fire.

But I'm not the insider you asked for.
