So, if they're 8-4 this year and better next year, you'll turn them off and not watch?More like

Well a competent AD would know to ask the right questions during the interview process.See, what I don’t know is, can the AD command his HC to make changes, hire a competent OC?
Winning enough to return in 2025, yes. His bosses desperately don't want to fire him.If so that would mean he is winning right?
So his boss doesn’t ask, WTH are you thinking, teams that win don’t look like yours?Well a competent AD would know to ask the right questions during the interview process.
Im not sure how you "save the guy from himself". The problem isnt just one thing:
It is DC
And STC
And OC.
And Recruiting Coordinator.
And S&T
There isnt a single part of the football program going well. What are you "saving" exactly?
Whats enough?Winning enough to return in 2025, yes. His bosses desperately don't want to fire him.
Your wishful thinking isn't going to make anything true.At least if you drank, you would have excuses for making comments like these.
Enough for Stricklin. I don't have an answer to that.Whats enough?
My peeps.I’ve read somewhere those guys were actually decent people. Plus their slaves got free OJ all day. That’s practically a health plan.
That might be a pretty low bar Ox.Enough for Stricklin. I don't have an answer to that.
And BNs reply is "What do they look like, specifically?".So his boss doesn’t ask, WTH are you thinking, teams that win don’t look like yours?
I agree. He came here for a lame duck coach. And there's probably a nice nil deal here for him. I imagine he'll atleast give a new coach a chanceHe won’t transfer if we bring in the right guy. We need to stop bringing in these midtier coaches.
This is the guy they brought in to do just that. They call him the Chief of Staff, but I recall the talk being he would oversee the football stuff Stricklin doesn't have time for doing other AD stuff.I would say, yes. The AD does have that power. But in college athletics they rarely exercise it. In that position, they have a lot of duties beyond just football. They have every other sport. All the coaches under those sports. Fundraising. And now NIL.
We need one just over football. Call him what you want. GM or AD. But there needs to be somebody just over football.
The head coach in the NFL does not handle salary cap or the contracts. And neither should he in CFB.
Well, Stricklin extended Mullen after he lost to Alabama.That might be a pretty low bar Ox.
But finding the "right" guy is much more complicated now imo. How is that even defined?
This isn't the thread for it, but imo, the UAA needs to set up a position of GM for football. That person hires the HC. They could do that NOW. The GM needs to set up the talent aquisition system (recruiting and portal), NIL and quantatative and quantifiable requirements for the next HC. The GM also needs to do or oversee marketing to attract NIL and recruits.
AD needs to do the other, non revenue sports.
Just hiring a new HC won't change anything long term.
If we can collect $40 million a year in donations for facilities upgrades, why does this number seem unsustainable?
True, but I'm curious to the accuracy of the rumors that Sasse very straightforward told Nape that this year is 7 wins or he's out. I know it was hinted at by several people after the season. IAKOW being one fwiw.Fellas, Ox is correct. Stricks would rather be gang banged in prison than fire Napier. He just wont do it unless hes forced to. I also would not be surprised to see napier here in '25 irrespective of record
