With Chimp, I knew it was over when, early in 2012, he lashed out at reporters who asked about his bad offense and responded with words to the effect of this is how you win football games. The fans don't know how to win. It was obvious by then he had zero clues about offense. Runner up: defending the offense and Jeff Driskel in particular, rather than maybe saying it's a work in progress or whatever, by saying he is 11-2. Honorable mention: claiming that what he learned about going 4-8 was not to lose your starting QB.
With Butters, the think that REALLY sticks with me is Franks stating that Butters taught him to be careful and just allow the defense to give you the game. Just take what the defense gives you, straight up 1950s Big Ten ball. Any doubts about what a dud we hired were gone.
Can you even imagine SOS just running the clock out and hoping the opposing defense would mess up and give him a chance to win the game? Right.
When did you know it was over with Chimp and/or Butters?
