[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 653844, member: 265"] I've heard this a lot and I don't buy it. If Paul had decided to stick around, he'd have gotten the support he needed. TStan would have seen to that; he had an interest in seeing a winning program and knew it would take more money. Further, ADs don't go to the big donors (hereinafter BGs) [I]before[/I] they make a selection after a resignation or firing; they go to the BGs [I]after[/I] they make the hire. It's a matter of getting approval, not of deciding who to hire. Needless to say, ADs normally try to make their choice compatible with what they [I]think[/I] the BGs want, but that usually boils down to wins for both so there usually isn't much leeway between them. This can lead to some really bad circumstances; Bill Lewis was the ADs choice and the BGs liked him a lot. The rest is history. I do agree that we need to show more progress then we have so far. If the program goes 4 - 20 in the next two years, I doubt seriously if either Collins or TStan can remain unless there is a serious upturn in 2022. Lewis was fired during his third season and the same thing could happen if things don't get appreciably better. As was said above, a couple of signature wins would sure help. [/QUOTE]
