And Drink is cultivating a crowd of coaches that despise the way he carries himself.
Quite a takedown in the P-D by Wake Forest's Clawson after Drink crowed about taking one of Wake's recruits:
"I like and respect Eli," Clawson said. "Everyone views their job differently. I think my job as the head coach at Wake Forest is I want our players modeling me and modeling sportsmanship. I don't know if he was just trying to be funny or cute. I just don't think comments like that are necessary. People have different personalities. That's just not something that I would do. I was a little disappointed he did that. He's a good football coach. And I do like and respect him. I just don't think anybody on our staff really appreciated those comments."

Drink becoming a tragic figure.
