The fact that he fired him so quickly tells me they have a game plan in place to replace him. I believe it was absolutely the right move.
now they need a quality hire with some shops. If that means taking a little bit of a chance, I say go for it. In today’s college environment this program can be turned around overnight it’s just going to take proven leadership.

Maybe. But they fired Jeff Scott during the season and didn't make a hire until well after the season ended, so I wouldn't necessarily go putting your eggs in that basket yet.

Maybe it’s a taxes thing? You know, like I put a bunch of my money in a charitable foundation that I created and then claim losses to pay less on taxes. USF must be flush with cash!

That's always the problem when a hire doesn't work out. More incentive to make sure that this time you make the right hire. Perhaps better to pay a little more for someone established, instead of someone who comes in as a big question mark.

The plan is like always hire some assistant from a big program with no real coaching experience.

The problem is that established coaches probably won’t want to come here even if you pay more to match the other schools. Now if you want to pay 1-2 million more then the other schools are offering maybe we have a chance.

Absolutely the right call.  CBG like CJS are both nice guys and we wish them well but both were the wrong people to lead MBB and football.  6 years is a large enough body of work to see that he wasn't gonna get it done.  Let's hope Kelly brings in someone with some juice.  MBB needs a spark in a big way.

Kinda like football? This AD is a joke.

He didn’t hire CBG, extended him after a terrible year and 4 out of 5 ****** years so if the extension cost us even one extra dollar then I am with you, can his sorry ass.
