I am not an apologist, not even a little bit. I am just trying to get some of you to understand why he is not going to be fired. I know it is a futile task at this point as everyone is completely out for blood. But, after his second season we were on a trend of showing a dramatic improvement from a 9 LOSS team to a 9 WIN team in just two seasons, followed that up with another bowl season last year (disappointing though it still was)... and here we sit- basically one bad season and everyone wants him gone. It is irrational to expect a change right now. We can all complain and be upset but what we need is a long term solution and knee jerk “fire everyone” reactions after one bad season do not lend themselves to the mindset of allowing someone enough time to turn the tide of our historically below mediocre program. I was never a fan of this hire from day one and I am sure you could dig old threads of me bashing this hire when it happened and even older ones talking trash about Boom when he was at UF... I wish he would be fired and we’d hire some sure fire big name success who can turn us around immediately, but this our bed and we have to lie in it right now. Emotion aside, if you look at the situation it is very hard to warrant firing this man today. We can opine about how we wish he never had been hired but he was and coming off the three year stretch he had, beating UGA this year, the obvious excuse he can fall back on of all the injuries they had to deal with... They just are not going to fire him now unless he goes loose cannon and does something stupid behind closed doors. (Fingers crossed)
