[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 903609, member: 2299"] If we finish out the year with a 30 point loss to UGA I don't think either an AD or a new HC will be on thin ice with at all due to not keeping on the coach. Fans are fickle. The same fans that are talking about Key being the head coach, two weeks ago were calling him one of the four horsemen that needed to be run out of town along with TStan and Collins. Losing to UGA will flip those same fans right back over or at the very least having them not be upset with going with a different HC. And that's not including the fans, and likely a large number, who are just happy Collins is gone and expect Key to also be gone at the end of the year because they still view him, at the rest of the staff, as part of the problem and see the same things that characterized our issues under Collins as still being present. I think that group just assumes there is no chance Key is retained barring a win against UGA and would likely be upset if he was hired following a 30 point loss to UGA, expected or otherwise. At the very least they certainly won't be upset with not keeping someone from the previous staff. To me the bold was assured when we fired Collins and TStan mid year and I think it's a big reason Key won't be a real consideration unless he beats UGA. The next hire has to be a "We are serious about this" splash hire, and promoting from within the program that was in shambles to the point of firing the AD mid year doesn't accomplish that, especially with as weak as the coastal looks at the moment.
