re: Tour of the Pelicans Practice Facility construction

Monty has plenty of reasons to mention this to the public

1) To get the public behind the team, showing that the tides are turning and we're moving in a different direction.
2) To show our lower-tier players that if they don't want to work hard/play here, than we can find others.
3) If indeed it did happen, it lets whichever players know that Monty was listening when they went up to him without Monty actually breaking rules and contacting them.

Look, Monty may not be the greatest XO's coach in the game (massive understatement) but I think he's going to be a marvelous recruiting talent. He's a genuine father figure to his players without even having to try. That's just the type of person that he is.

I also think a few of you would be surprised about the level of player that came up to Monty and told him to keep an eye out.

I've told many people this. Les Miles and Monty Williams have a LOT in common. We just have to hope that Monty can make his bread and butter the same way that Les does, by getting legitimate talent to play here.
