[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 660532, member: 2175"] I don't have any idea what the tether for Collins should be, except that seven years is way excessive. More importantly, though, is that in my career I have on occasion had to fire somebody. That is never pretty and I never trusted nor liked anybody who enjoyed that. You are dealing with a life and a family. What I came to realize, finally, was that while the employee -- for the sake of argument in this case the coach -- was a failure and it could not continue, then it was also my failure. And in this case, the AD's failure. It is a hard thin to come to because nobody wants to admit someone else's fail is a direct result of your fail. I don't think one can ever be a successful leader who does not embrace that reality. If Collins fails, then so does Stansbury. In equal measure. So let's just all hope that starting Saturday it works out. [/QUOTE]
