[NU Sports] Jim Phillips Greatest Hits

[Beamsley, Jeff]

IMHO Phillips has done a great job.

His job is to get NU positive visibility.

It's Fitz's job to win the games.

I think it much better to have a tough game against a ranked opponent
than a layup against the little sisters of the poor.  Nobody is going to
remember us blowing out an inferior bowl opponent.  It might help our
ego to get a bowl win, but I think it is MUCH better for recruiting to
see our "no-name" guys going toe to toe with the best in the country.

Jeff

BTW Mark Murphy was also an excellent AD ... let us not forget ... see
what
he is doing now as president of the Packers.
