I'm beginning to wonder about your intelligence level. You tried to argue a point against me without actually arguing.
What I am saying, and this is not refutable (because people with connections better than you, Mr. Burns) have said that Lick outlined a very strict set of guidelines that he expects his players to follow next year, and what they need to improve on. Lick told Freeman that if he does not meet these guidelines, he'll be riding the pine, and that he would probably have better luck playing elsewhere.
And yes, Cole/Tate were named captains for obvious reasons. You don't name a player captain when he refuses to buy into your system, and has made little effort to change. It's obvious last year that Freeman hadn't changed much, and if he was named captain, what would that say to players that have done everything they can do play Lick's way?
Then why did Lick decline to name Freeman a captain or co-captain
before meeting with him and asking him if he would buy in to the system?
If it went as you explain, then Lick evidently knew Freeman's answer before he asked Freeman the question, eh? How would he know Freeman wouldn't agree to play the Butler way? Oh wait, maybe he checked with the Board of Regents...
As always, your lack of logic and inability to recognize facts makes your statements irrelevent.
