papachaz 18,819 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 at what point during the presser did Coach say the GM couldn't talk during the season? I didn't hear that, although I will admit I missed part of it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
falconsd56 25,749 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 What point is there to hearing from the GM during the season??? I can see maybe hearing from them after a big trade or something but other then that once the season starts then it is the coaches who deal with the game to game questions.

He said the GM would be available for interviews and talk shows, only that during the season he felt the only person who should be doing press conferences is the coach so that the team has one voice.

FalconDawg28 357 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 He is terrible at his job. Last Friday, on the local sports radio show in Macon he said that AB was doing his friend Fred Smith a favor and hiring his son. It turns out AB said yesterday during the press conference he has never even met or talked to Fred Smith in his life.

Loved it One thing I noticed about Fontenot was that he's very self aware and aware of the people around him. From acknowledging Von McClure to shutting down any questions that could create a negative narrative going into his new job, he was on top of it all. I'm pretty sure he sees that D Led is the source of a lot of the negative rumors and reports that come out of the Falcons organization. I like how he handled D Led from the jump... to go ahead and set a tone for how they are going to interact. Fontenot and Arthur Smith seem to be no nonsense when it comes to their jobs. I prefer that approach, enough with the rah rah speech and slogans. These guys are more about putting in the work to get results, that's what we need. Now maybe they'll make Julio come to an actual organizational strength and conditioning program so he'll stay healthy the entire season for a change.
