A lot was said below about Wilson’s mom. I think she is hurting her son by getting involved. Mike McCoy’s parents knew how to handle this kind of thing. I am friends with Mike’s wife’s parents. They would sit by Mike’s parents at the games in 93 and 94. No one knew who they were except those who sat right next to them. As fans will often do when the offense is not doing well, they would attack the QB and say all kinds of nasty things. They didn’t realize that his parents were sitting right there. Mike’s parents would just ignore the fans. My friend asked Mike’s dad, “Why don’t you say something, I could not just sit there …” He told her, I learned a long time ago to never engage the fans. He showed the wisdom that Mrs. Wilson has not yet learned.
I attended the Utah Oregon in Oregon in 1994. Utah upset Oregon that day. However, when our offense stagnated in the second half, my friend and I were yelling at Mac. We said some unkind things, but we knew he could not hear us. Someone later pointed out that Mac’s wife was sitting right in front of us. She never flinched or said a thing. She too learned that engaging fans is wise. I was totally embarrassed.
