AJW 2,190 Posted October 9 Share Posted October 9 This past season it was to my greatest surprise that @jacobcarson877 got the GM job in Houston of the VHLM. I’ve told Jacob in the past that I would love to work with him one day and now I get the opportunity to do that! Working as his AGM is such a treat, it’s been about a week so far and I can already tell why Jacob is such a dominate GM. During my time GMing the Bulls I felt I really thrived in the social department, keeping vibes up and making Houston a home for anyone who walks in. In the VHLM this is a key factor to keep players engaged and wanting to come back each week. Having that tool in my bag is amazing because while Jacob is also good at this, he is by far the best GM in every other aspect, and I have to worry about nothing besides showing up everyday with a great attitude. We went through the most recent VHLM draft and this man automated our draft spreadsheet, reached out to every single prospect, and even got IA players out of their shell and on our roster, as well as already signing a few free agents. It is no surprise to me at all that Houston has an active 12-6-1 roster. With the moves he’s made, the players he has signed, it all may seem like magic to some but to me that’s just Jacob being the amazing person he is. Jacob works really hard and cares so much about his team. I am really impressed and honoured to work under him, I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to take over this franchise that I love the most. I am so excited to see how this team turns out over the next few seasons and I have full faith in Jacob to bring life back to Houston, giving me nostalgia of S92 when we had our massive recruitment drive.

OblivionWalker 289 Posted October 9 Share Posted October 9 Jacob was my gm for the Junior Showcase Tournament in Season 94 and as a first gen and completely new to everything, he was super welcoming and made that time on the Rush really feel special. He will always have a place in my heart as one of my first gm's along with Grape, who was cool with Ottawa as well.
