[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 929667, member: 2299"] I don't know why people continue to bring up cooperate analogies like they make any sense in relation to coaching. When a coach is fired mid year the expectation is that the entire staff is gone. When Bowden was fired from Clemson (or stepped down mid year), Dabo called his wife and told her that he (meaning Dabo himself) had been fired, but worse was made interim. There is no chance Key stayed around knowing that Collins would be fired expecting to be promoted or even be retained when that happened. If that happened at the end of the year, this year or last year, Key wouldn't have had a snowball's chance in Athens of being retained much less promoted. Hell, if we weren't hamstrung by money he probably doesn't get the job even in the situation we had. Promoting from within happens when coaches leave to take other jobs. They very rarely happen when coaches are fired and it's damn near unheard of when coaches are fired for bad performance on the field. And the examples you can look at, Dabo replacing Bowden and Orgeron replacing Miles at LSU, were programs in significantly better shape. Where the train was obvious headed was Key being unemployed. The result is the train grew wings, turned 170 degrees and flew to the north pole. [/QUOTE]
