You know we're USF, right? Not Oklahoma, Ohio State, etc?

Just because we want someone doesn't mean we'll get them...

Im aware but is it not easier to get someone when there is Less schools looking to find replacements? Right now Idaho is in the hunt, If we wait to the end of the season other schools could also be in the market for coaches. Which would put us at a bigger disadvantage yes? Why not be the first to start the search so we have a chance at grabbing a good one?

Proactive instead of Reactive will help our cause.

IDAHO gets it , USF clearly does not.

Pretty safe to say the buyout wasn't $2.5 million. It's a little bit easier for them to make the move at this point.

Plus he'd been there since 2007 ... was 2-10 last year ... was 1-7 this year .... averaging 45 pts against in the losses, including 3 over 60 pts.

Because any coach worth his salt is going to be wary of a situation where a coach was fired after only 2 1/2 years, and really just a little over a year of "bad" games ...

its bad form to fire someone mid season yet most schools and nfl teams will do it. Why continue on a path of destruction? Appointing interim head coaches gives an assistant you might think has potential an opportunity while searching for a replacement. Its the only way it should be done. Its not fair to the future coach to come in and not be able to recruit. I think you have it backwards. Your paying a guy millions of dollars, you can fiire him when ever you want.

This might be the most incorrect statement I've seen in some time.

Especially in the middle of their 3rd year ...
