Vince Tyra met with the players today after firing Bobby Petrino and four staffers: Nick Petrino, Andy Wagner, Ryan Beard and LD Scott.
Word that I get is that the tone of the meeting was very positive.
I was not in the room, but I have now talked to several people who were there.
There seemed to be a weight lifted off the team - who knows whether that translates to better performance - but the mood was almost relieved.
Vince was very frank about the lack of effort and execution he saw on film. VERY FRANK.
He told them the film doesn't lie and things were dysfunctional.
The players know he was right. They also could feel a change coming for weeks (and that was part of the issue).
The players seem to really love Lorenzo Ward. Hopefully they will play well for him.
