Every coach that has been talked about has flaws. There was not 1 big time coach out there. Don't get me wrong AG was not my first choice, but I am still happy, I think he fits the culture well. Let's see these perfect candidates that have no flaws at all.

I would give AG a very short leash.
There is no reason that he should not have UD back in the NCAAT by year 3 or year 4.
If UD is not back in the NCAAT by year 4, then I think UD should pull the plug and replace him and move on.
I am not in favor of giving him 6 or 7 or 8 years. We did that with BG, and things never got better.

We just had our best coach in 30 years, and we went with an external guy, with a very sketchy track record, to replace him.
I am just stunned.

And he may get fired next year if he misses the NCAAT again.
The AD at OSU already had to issue a statement of support this year.

UD2, you are continuing to throw all this out without giving any real fact or substance to your argument and without offering any better choices. You just keep repeating the same things over and over again. If I tell my boss I hate his idea, I better have good reasons and good alternatives. Who was a better choice? Why do you continue to only look at his time at Bama and not what he did at VCU? What is so "sketchy" about his past? Has he already said he is against the 15/15 H&A schedule?
