  1. Why are so many people talking about not firing on Sunday due to church when we canned Holtz on a Sunday?
  2. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. Let us see how strong of a will the former CFP COO/ 3x Super Bowl committee president/LRS assistant/ has in him.
  3. It is quite literally Kelly’s job to make it work. That’s why he is the AD. Find the funds in the couch cushion, or raise them. Can you put a value on the amount of long term damage this program will sustain with another year of Charlie Strong? On top of how far he has already set us back? Time to get creative. Just like the creativity Harlan showed in creating this horrible contract in the first place. To say such creativity is impossible in this circumstance is short sighted. Would it be difficult? Sure. Financially painful? Sure. Worth it in the long run? Absolutely.
  4. Ah, so Corey is G5Bull from 247... Well that explains a lot.
  5. How about you directly acknowledge my arguments instead of ignoring my points: 2 winning programs greatly regressed under Strong in the past 6 years. Charlie lacks an understanding of modern college offenses. He lacks guts on the field and charisma at the podium.
  6. Who recruited our “D3 talent”? Was it Taggart, who has multiple former recruits balling out in the NFL? Or was it Chuckles? And why would that change with Chuckles moving forward? Why would his recruiting suddenly improve in offseason #4, after three seasons of diminishing returns?
  7. A coach who hasn’t killed two programs in a six year span. A coach who has something more to say after a loss than “we gotta execute better” A coach with a sense of always-evolving college offenses. A coach with guts and charisma.
  8. We are all a little bit stupider for this thread existing.
  9. Hell. No. We are only stuck with him if Michael Kelly isn’t capable of doing his job. He’s got 48 hours to prove his worth. Any coach should be worried about getting fired for having three seasons of diminishing returns. Regardless of if it’s USF or somewhere in the SEC. Name me a coach that USF has realistically sought, who has been scared away. No coach would ever look at the construction of an IPF as a personal commitment to their continued coaching at the institution regardless of results. Having a good coach is not realistic? Sir, your defeatist attitude is not welcome here.
  10. An IPF announcement isn’t going to pump life back into the program. In a couple years when it’s built, sure it will help. But if you’re banking on just an announcement to turn things around, you are delusional. Who would want to come here right now, seeing how Charlie has imploded the program, and knowing that he would be a lame duck? What recruiting leverage does Charlie have at this moment?
  11. We fired Skip on Sunday, and church is irrelevant to football
  12. This level of impatience is ridiculous. Expect an announcement tomorrow.
  13. I'd expect something tomorrow. Today was the first work-day after Thanksgiving. Michael Kelly will do his due-diligence.
  14. Two runs up the gut in a row. It's Gilbert's MO. The first run is normally good. The second run sniffed out from a mile away. Every time.
  15. Posted this in the wrong thread: We have won 5 games in a row that we were expected to win. Many teams don’t win every game they are expected to win. I also did not expect us to be 5-0 given the amount of roster turnover this year. Are we one of the 25 best teams in the country? No. Do we deserve to be in the Top 25 this week, based on established ranking formulas and precedent? Yes, but barely.
  16. For me, it's still offensive playcallling. I remember that thread hailing Gilbert as our new savior after the GT game, a game we won due to special teams contributions, not offense. Last week, and last night, I saw the same Gilbert playcalling from last year. HB dive, HB dive, shot down the sideline. It worked on all of two plays yesterday.
  17. This win is only 'meaningful' if we follow through the rest of this season.
