Current situation to me is like horse racing . When you go up in class, expect there to be a short term hiccup.
I don't know anyone can ask for his head after only two years in B12. Specially when we're landing like that kid the other day over Michigan and Ohio State. That's all his recruiting. Eventually he'll have all his players.
KJ was a strikeout and I think we learned a important lesson there. Always trade up, not down on project kids. Give me the jucos and the undesirables from the lower leagues and coach them up
While the idea has good intent, think about why this problem exists to begin with. The ATHLETIC DIRECTOR gave Gus a ridiculous extension. If anyone should be paying for a buyout, it should be out of his own pocket.I was thinking that since UCF won't be in a bowl game this year, maybe the athletics department could have a fundraiser to collect money to buy Gus out instead. Think of all the $$$ the fans shelled out on bowl games in the past. People spend money on travel, tickets, meals, souvenirs and transportation. This year, people will have all of that money left over. Maybe they will contribute to a buyout.
If we don’t have millions in our Athletic Accounts, people should be fired. This is a business. It’s not being run in the red. No one is withdrawing money as soon as a profit is made. The money gets put back into making facilities better and operating costs. 3 mill per home game is profit. That’s 18 mill. Plus whatever money is earmarked already for projects. I’d rather get rid of a bad coach than upgrade stadium or facilities right now. Wait a couple years when excitement is back to do upgrades and use that money.
Even companies that file bankruptcy, can spend frivolously. The money is there. Repurpose it.
If they aren’t getting the money they need, find someone that people can rally behind. Gus is not it and people aren’t giving money to him for losses. No one wants to go to Indiana and their coach has them only losing to Ohio State. I like how loud he is. He’d fit our fanbase perfectly. He’s my go to. I’m not sure we would be only suitors and he likes being at Indiana.
