Accountable means hiring qualified coaches and when they aren't successful or break rules fire them. It doesn't mean knowing the future like so many on here appear to be able to do.

Give us all a list of Doug's so called accomplishments and his grade/ evaluation if you will as our AD.    Curious as to what exactly it is he can take FULL credit for ,   has done a good  job at?

Slick can explain away failure and scatter accountability. History is an excuse not an outcome. It's bizarre.

He's the kind of boss we'd all like, in that regard.

How low and long do we have to go before we have No fans at the games?  20,000  was the actual butts in seats according to  Sports authority.    

 

USF's broken promises to donors and season ticket holders with POOR play on the field and Horrible decision making by the AD is compounding the problem.

 

Our mess is much bigger than Skippy and the current mess Coach T inherited.  We run our AD office like a JV high school booster program made up of volunteer parents and teachers.  Time to cut Doug before the next wave or realignment comes ( its coming folks don't kid your self)  and it might be the last one.  

 

What will USF PROMISE next year to get butts in the seats(only to not keep those promises)? 

Doug ur the Top man the chit stops with you. 

 

Coach T your the coach so "Do something and make these players play with heart and pride"  or bench them and go with the future ( freshmen).    

 

I agree with all of this... we need to dump Doug and bring in a quality SEC AD who can get this program running right.

 

Doug is one of the highest paid AD's in all of college sports so why can't we fire him, and then bring in a SEC guy to get this crap done right? We apparetly have the $$ to blow, so why not blow it on some top of the line talent?

Please tell me you're not talking about stealing a current AD from an SEC school ...

Guys, the AD ain't getting fired. Ever. He'll retire when he's darn good and ready to retire, likely within the next five years. And that'll be that.

 

Isn't his contract up soon?

 

I could see that not getting renewed.

Sounds like a rather simple, risk-free gig if that's the extent of the accountability our AD has.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
