How long does Harlan get a pass on all this?

Wonderful question. His only big hire has been a failure.

Antigua is done. The best thing USF can do now is terminate his contract. They don't have the bodies or the quality athletes to be able to compete at this point. A 20 loss season is likely. Antigua isn't having any success  attracting good talent to come in for 2017-18 season so combine that with what's to be expected

 a long season, why delay any longer. USF is at the point where they just have to step up and get a HC with a good name so he can do proper damage control and bring future hope. Harlan go raise some more money.

You tried to tell us all how great of a hire this was. Should have kept Heath another year.

You Bulls don't get it. It's USF. We either will have good football or good men's bball. Well, football is back, and bball is back --back to the wall.

It ain't but a thang... Been down this road before.

DIG THOSE FREAKING BONES OUT FROM UNDER THE DOME!

Technically Harlan extended CWT's contract; thus, in some form, he now owns that decision, for better or worse.  I am still unsure exactly how I feel about that, but it could be the trauma that the Holtz extension placed on me.

So, as usual, we don't know all the facts, one columnist mentions the timing coincides with the investigation, and we're all sure that this is COA's fault.

I'm not going to sit here and argue for keeping COA, he's done (or hasn't done) enough, but, unless I missed something, we don't know why Troy isn't with the program.

Every win and every loss is COA's fault. Do the details really matter in the end?

Did your drunken source happen to mention anything about our Big 12 invite?  

Yes, but you have to take into consideration I was inebriated as well. It was difficult to tell if it was factual or a strong opinion based on his inside information at the time.

I would not be surprised if Murry Bartow ends up coaching the team this season as it may be part of Harlan's plan.  Who knows what is going on behind the scenes  http://www.gousfbulls.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=7700&ATCLID=211126892

I liked the hire of Antigua because, after the Masiello debacle they needed the process over and I thought he would be able to recruit. Tthen it looked like he was lost and completely over his head. I think that's why they brought in Murry Bartow. He's the babysitter this season. Have to admit, with Baxter not coming it's hard to be optimistic about it.
