Click to hear Coach's Exit Interview![]()
Coach just talked to us on the phone. Here are a few of his quotes. Check out Coach’s website for the movie he’ll be in this Summer. Listen to the MP3 file to hear it all.
Your exit speech was not very “Coachlike”.
I wish I hadn’t said it. It was not Coachlike. I was so upset. I could’t believe they voted me off. I’m not mad now. I wasn’t mad a couple says afterward.
Why vote for Courtney last time?
I wanted to keep the tribe strong. I wasn’t going to tie it up and draw rocks. I have a 1 in 6 shot at going home after that. Jerri voted Rob off. I fought for him all day. She gets the hug and I got the “little man”.
Hope springs eternal in the mind of a fool and I seem to be one of the biggest fools on Survivor.
Tell us about you and Jerri.
We’re not an item. I’m looking forward to seeing her at the finale. We can’t talk to each other until then. We’ll see what happens.
What’s with the numbers on your ballots?
I had three different meanings. The obvious one is to spell out “dragon slayer”.
It gets a little more complex than that.
I’m sure you’ve heard of gematria [editor note: I hadn't so looked it up], where you add and subtract the numbers. If you look at the numbers that I wrote down, [editors note: They are 4, 18, 1, and 7] you’ve got 4 minus 1 plus 8 equals 9 plus 1 plus 1 equals 2 minus 7 and that comes up with the numbers 4, 9, 2, 7. Look at Genesis 49:27, Benjamin is a ravenous wolf.
Third, I wanted to quote philosophers, and King Solomon was one of the greatest, and he wrote Proverbs. I wanted to group them in pairs, so the first one was Proverbs 4:18. The second was Proverbs 1:7.
What sealed Rob’s fate?
His ego. If he put his ego aside, we would have voted out Courtney and made a stronger tribe.
Is there a secret girls alliance that we don’t know about?
Could be. Anything is possible out there. Everyone out there, with the exception of 1 or 2, is ready to claw out their grandmother’s eyes to get ahead.
Has anyone talked to you about doing a TV show?
Go to my website at coachbenwade.com. There’s going to be a movie called 180 coming out this Summer. You can check it all out there.

Voting coach out looks like a stupid move because now they won’t win any challenges, but anyone who knows Russell knows that is was a smart move on his part. He doesn’t care about winning challenges. He can go without luxury items and sleeping and eating. He may be a weasel, but he is definitely playing the best game ever. And now the other side thinks there is an all girl’s alliance. HAH!

Unbelievable, Russell is controlling everything again.. Players should have listened to Rob.. Tyson u r a disappointment..Jerry and Coach, u r weaklings….I know this is early but I think it again will come down to JT and Russell..

I’m sorry Boston Rob did not get a chance to be on the jury. It would have been interesting to see, if Russell gets to be a finalist again, whether Rob would have voted for the man who orchestrated his departure. Rob said he gets it, that it’s a game, so I think he might have considered it.

Everyone says what a great stratigic move Russell made getting rid of coach, I guess it is if you don’t care about winning any challenges. He has what they call “little man syndrome” He’s such a dreadful little troll ! All anyone has to say is they are thinking of voting you out and Russell rushes to make sure they get voted out. What a loser. That is not strategic that’s “no one messes with Russell”. We all say how pathetic he was last year asking to buy the title of Survivor and if he lasts until the end, he’ll probably due the same because no one on the jury will be his friend.

Coach is fake and got what he deserved!

I like Coach. He is an extremely interesting personality. What I don’t get though is, Russell did not vote Coach out, he voted for Courtney. (Check it in the post below, the picture one) Have Parvati and Danielle gone to Courtney’s and Sandra’s side or did they just want Coach out, and stick to Russell and Jerri?

Just a side comment: why is the title of the article “Boston Rob’s exit interview”?Shouldn’t it be: “Coach wade’s exit interview”?

Boston Rob is my favorite survivor EVER!! I almost cried when he got voted off. I’m sorry to all the Russell fans out there, but he is such a tool. I feel in survior people should vote out all the phsycially week players b4 the merge, that will hep the stronger ones stay to gether after, then they can pick off the strong players, when there all fighting for individual emunity. Russell, as smart of a player that he is, is eventually just goning to screw himself over. or at least thats wat im hoping for.

If russel does make to the finials no one will vote for him cause he backstaped every one so far

Russell has to remember that he lost the last one by peeing in the jury pool. He has done that again. Alienated the first jury member.

Russell is disgusting but fascinating to watch — sort of like a train wreck. Horrible fun!
By Skelly on Apr 13, 2010 | Reply
Yes, Russell voted for Courtney. Why? Because now Coach thinks Russell voted for Courtney and Coach is on the jury. SMART!

Russell is a disgusting little gnome of a man
and If everyone is stupid enough to keep, and god forbid even vote him winner[ after trying to buy the title, and him still claiming he is the best player ever even though he lost] I will never watch the show again He makes me soooo mad

Russell voted for Courtney to make Courtney and Sandra also believe that he is on the outer (because his two alliance members voted for Coach). The three of them figured that Coach was going to be sent home anyway. The illusion that he is on the outer is even greater now.
I do not understand all the uproar over Boston Rob, he looked shattered and completely beat when Tyson went. Russell and his two companions simply beat those that came after them, they overcame odds of 6 versus 3. Truly great TV.

I hope the producers have something new up their sleeves this year to spice things up. How about Something like, bringing back all evicted competitors (making it fair) having a challenge just for them and then giving the top 2 a chance to rejoin their tribes (before any merge). Then letting the remaining survivors vote for who out of the 2 should come back in.

I wish people would stop saying Russell sent Coach home. Sandra was the one who engineered Coach’s demise, by putting the thought in Russell’s head in the first place. I’m not a big fan of Sandra(just don’t think she does much), but if she continues to be that devious, I just might have to consider rooting for her on the villains side, instead of Russell.

I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!! I am always hanging out for the next episode. Every season is better than the last.
Sad that Coach is gone even sadder Rob is not in it any more.

OMG! Was I happy to see wishy washy Coach go packing! What’s that Coach? You’re looking forward to seeing Jeri at the finale… Why is that? So she can give you’re cajones back to you? What sealed Robs fate? Well, thats easy.. The indecisive, whiny, and uncooperative coach Ben Wade. Better know as Jeri’s man slave. Guess you know now why they call her the “Black Widow”.

I hate Russell. He gets on my nerves and he is so ugly. If Russell or Parvati wins i dont think i will watch survivor anymore. I miss Boston Rob so much. I love watching him play the game he is so talented. Congrats to BR on the marrage and baby i was pulling for you and amber
