[QUOTE="ThatGuy, post: 923619, member: 3440"] Be that as it may, hindsight aside, I remember the reason for Collins’ 7-year contract was that it could take at least that long to complete the greatest rebuild in the history of college sports. Now, we find ourselves with a team that went 3-9 for 3 years, and then went to 5-7 in year 4 (under an interim HC). Which makes me wonder - had a different HC been hired, what would be the timeline we would have expected to get us back to a bowl game (& beyond)? I imagine (but have no hard data) some who wanted an outside HC candidate would have considered 3 years a reasonable timeframe. For me, that timeframe is understandable for most new HCs, as they try and implement their systems and get their recruits in. So a challenge for all of us - given Brent Key’s success on the field this year, are we able to give him the same timeframe as we would give a new HC hired from another program? I personally think we should afford him that same leeway, as hard as that may be, as he’s now building his own system out from under someone else’s. If not, why not? [/QUOTE]
