Can we please stop demanding that we fire coaches after only 2 seasons?

I'm not advocating for firing him at all. It sets a bad precedent and handcuffs us in next coaching search. That being said, I definitely think he's getting fired after next season.

I don’t see any way he succeeds next year - that’s the only reason I’d say a firing now is viable.

I'm not on the Fire Mohl bandwagon yet, although I do believe his seat may be increasingly warmer. :hotseat:

I don't believe a coach needs, nor is owed, three plus years to show something.   Antigua, for example, demonstrated right out of the gate he was incompetent.  With all due respect, I'd ask that we stop demanding to pay people for extended failures.  If the A.D. is paying close attention, he should fire anyone he feels will not be successful regardless of that coach's tenure on the job.

Mohl hasn't shown any level of incompetence to this point.  Definitely not anything close to Antigua like.

OK. Let’s talk in a year or two when the program has bottomed out and the firing is inevitable. You don’t need a crystal ball to see this coming.

He would have to be an corpse to reach that level of futility...

Just a couple of points.  First, he's never been a head coach before this so there is no history to point to saying he'll turn this around. The other is that he was on Kingston's coat tails who is a legit coach and maybe the success those teams had had more to do with Kingston that Mohl.

FWIW, my comment was not about Mohl, but this idea coaches need some number of years before evaluation, in this case three.  I think evaluations start immediately and so too should actions that should result from that evaluation.  We kept Antigua WAYYYYYYYY too long.
