So long to Bruiser

Bruiser Flint was fired today. I am sorry to see him go, but I suppose it was inevitable. The Drexel program was in free fall. There had been some really good times in years past, but that does not earn you much lately. I loved his nickname, and it pretty well summed up his teams. Tough, physical, fundamental. Usually their defense was reliable, but in the last few seasons it had deteriorated, and there was not sufficient offense there to make up the difference. Bruiser will get a job somewhere else, I am sure, and I will watch the rest of his career with interest.
