They’ve received to put the blame or put accountability on somebody, and oftentimes it winds up on the coach or the administration. That’s simply sort of how the cookie crumbles.
“It’s not for me to say whether or not it’s the suitable factor to do or not. I’m simply getting right here, and I’m nonetheless listening to about the way in which issues work on this constructing and the way in which issues have been on this constructing. So I’m not right here to speak about whether or not it was purported to occur — that’s simply sometimes the way it goes.”
However, Adams doesn’t remorse making the voyage to the Jets.
