We Bison fans know that there was "mutual agreement" between Nathan Davis and the Bucknell AD. Truax, to "part company" at this time.
We also know that Davis was highly competent as a coach for his first four years at Bucknell, inheriting one of the best teams Bucknell has ever had.
Then came the last four years with players leaving, Covid, poor recruiting and LAST PLACE (?) in the Patriot League the last two years dominating the picture.
But when you read Davis University of New Hampshire Welcome, including the testimonials of Flattery and other coaches, you get a far different picture of the Davis tenure at Bucknell, with a blackout of the last four years.
This is to be expected, I suppose. We wish Davis well, but we've seen the recruiting level sink to two last place finishes, unable to compete with nine other teams in the League?
Old saying in Baseball is the Managers don't hit, pitch nor catch, so don't blame them! However in this case, it seems that a Head Coach IS to blame, since he recruits, hires, and coaches.
So where does the truth lie for Nathan Davis career at Bucknell these last 8 years?
We know the GOOD, but what about the BAD and the UGLY?
Read his UNH Welcome here: then your comments welcome!
