...to me it comes down to recruiting. If Jeff Scott can pull in a top 50 class, then he give him another year. Our 2014 class which contained Q, was ranked in the mid 40's & let to our best team ever in 2017, arguably (even with Strong squandering it).
He has to let Shoop go though. Former NFL coordinators do not translate well to college. For him to constantly complain about missed assignments while not simplifying the defense shows it. He had had a year & the players are consistently out of position. Let Ernie Sims call the plays, or bring in an up and comer with some fire.
Now, I'm ready for the firing squad...
