I think context matters.

CWT certainly had 3 years which is similar to where we are now. CCS should have been fired last year.

I said if we kept CCS we would go 4-8 this year. Obviously many on this board didn’t like that but I said we were probably closer to 2-10 than 8-5 as most were predicting.

Where the program is starting from matters in how much patience the fan base should have.

Like if we practice a whole year like in 1996?

Not sure we'd sell many season tickets to watch a year's worth of spring games.

Next hire cannot be a miss , if there's a chance to get to a P5 conference we can't lose to central anymore and must win championships. , it's in your court MK good luck.

The Ravens beat the 49ers, and Charlie Strong is fired. Today is wonderful. 

Dolphins and Buccaneers also winning today

“Don’t fire Strong because we can’t afford it” is not only an ‘opinion’ I didn’t recognize, it’s now been proven incorrect.

People and institutions do things they can’t afford all the time.

Because they know short term pain is worth long term gain.

Just because something has been done doesn't mean we could afford it. You are making an assumption as much as those making the assumption we couldn't afford to fire him.

Not sure we'll sell many otherwise... 

But I was joking then and I am joking now.
