First, let me say that I think Fitz was the right call. I hope if he
wants GB to be around this year to help him out as a sort of football
consultant, and this can happen and that we as fans will bury the hatchet.
It's time to move on past the hurt feelings of Barnett's leaving and Coach
Walker's example in this regard is one to be emulated.

I was just saying this myself yesterday - the team needs support right
now, and it's going to be rough.
This team and staff faces unbelievable challenges right now, and they
deserve to have the loyalty and forbearance of their fans. I personally
will be giving grumbling a rest this season and focussing on cheering my
heart out for this team, win or lose. I hope the rest of the "Wildcat
Nation", as Fitz called us at the press conference, will give him our best
support.
