We have a lot of folks on this board clearly more qualified to be AD than Dave Braine, so let's have them audition!
Coach #1
Your team finishes 10-1 in one of its best seasons ever. You hire a new coach from a lesser program and he goes 8-3, 7-4, 8-4, 6-5, and 4-7. Do you fire the coach?
Coach #2
You just finished 7 consecutive winning seasons, including 9-2-1 last year. Your coach retires and you hire a new coach who goes 2-9, 3-8, 6-4-1, 6-5, and 5-6. Do you fire the coach?
Coach #3
Your last coach went 20-12-3 his last three years, then left for a higher profile job. You hire a new coach, but 3 games into his 3rd season he is 1-20 against Division I-A teams. Do you fire him?
Coach #4
You have a successful coach, but he may be past his prime. His record has slipped from 11-0 to 8-2-1 to 8-3 to 6-5 to 6-5-1, including 2 losses in a row to your in-state rival, including a 49-26 humiliation. Do you fire him?
Coach #5
You've just completed 10 consecutive seasons with 9 or more wins. Your coach leaves for the pros and you hire a new guy. He breaks the string his first year going 8-3, then inches up to 9-3 his second year, but plunges to 5-6 his third year with a humiliating 47-0 loss to your in-state rival. Do you fire him?
Please share your wisdom with us.
