At least Mangino didn’t criticize the officiating in the SEC. That would be really bad.

1)Mangino is a hard nosed old school coach. There are going to be players that fit and the players that don’t leave.
2)Jason Whitlock is the biggest idiot in the world. He made issue of Mangino’s weight at his 1st ever press conference and Mangino responded with “Was you weight an issue when the Star hired you?” At the end of the press conference Whitlock approached Coach and Whitlock said that had hurt his feeling and he struggles with his weight.(I was directly behind this conversation)
3)It was a poke and probably a fiery exchange. Whoopy Doo! Kid, just get your senior year over and leave.
4)Mangino has high expectation’s and treats everyone the same and that is all you can ask of people. You know where you stand with him.
