    Yep, see he's still listed on the coaching staff.

    I've had a couple interactions with leadership over there over the last 5ish years. They've been more helpful than I would have expected. Also, one of the coaches from my current club, whom I respect a lot, just went there this past summer. But nowhere in any of that had Lesh's name come up.

    Meh, live and learn I guess.
    Makes sense

    Since there's already a lot of discussion about the Columbus Fury here:

    $10 tickets in the "party zone" available only on game days to walk-up customers.

    Their attendance last year was absolute crap and, from what I was told, worse than expected. Ticket prices didn't help and neither did the team's play. If they can get their crap together, $10 tickets (or, say, even $15 or so in a year or two from now) might be stiff competition compared to sitting outside at a Crew game in February.

    I like volleyball. Back in the day we'd go to a Friday night game at my alma mater before football on Saturday. But not here--at the prices they are charging.

    If the $10 tickets include seats and a halfway-decent view, this may change the picture.

    I'll have to look into it.

    If I recall correctly they are on the floor near the DJ. Standing only with some tabletops to congregate around.

    That might not work for me. I've found I cannot stand anymore as long as I might like. Hard to say.

    The tea coming out of Cleveland is that Jimmy wanted to hire Jim Schwartz or at least keep him on as a DC, and the GM who Jimmy said would have full authority to hire wanted 35 year old wonder kid Nate Scheelhasse. They compromised and settled with their old OC in 2019 Todd Monken.

    Now Schwartz is throwing a very public fit through his agent online. The browns are the browns.
