SKIP HOLTZ TO RESIGN AFTER PITT GAME TONIGHT

[Reliable Source]

Also, countless coaches resign from smaller D2 and D3 schools all the time. Before anybody replies: yes I know those aren't BCS schools and yes I know their contracts are neglible compared to Skippy's big score.

yEAH but we have been playing like them lately though.

Just heard it from a friend who's father is on the AD for football at USF. Skip will be handing his papers in tonight after the Pitt game.

If he resigns he will forfeit his contract and not receive any more money. Why not wait to get fired and receive the $2.5M buyout? The only way he resigns is if he is pursing another job.

If true, there was probably some settlement for him to resign vs. being fired that would cost USF less money.

yes...allows him to save face, and get a lump sum now....win-win.

I don't think we'd spend foolishly again, if given the chance.

As you would say "not every time".

I think the program has changed.

Holtz has lost the players. Holtz appeared cool, calm, and collected during last few meetings. Apparently the only ones on edge in the locker room are the assistant coaches, especially Cosh. General feeling among players is Holtz is getting one more year.

This is directly from a player's mouth. Nothing concrete but he feels Holtz is getting another year.

The players are ALWAYS the absolutely last party to find out.

lol yeah

So USF is officially stuck in mediocrity and not going after a top coach?

stuck in mediocrity? We're 4-15 in the last 19 games including 2-11 in conference. Mediocrity would be an improvement.

Yeah, I kinda figured that. He said some pretty troubling things though. Aside from the players not caring anymore, their attitude going into games was that they were going to lose. Said players joked about forfeiting tonight's game. Players are more excited about an end of the season party they organized than the game. But this is all stuff we can assume after a season like this. Just thought I'd post what I heard from a friend who plays D.
