[QUOTE="GT33, post: 932275, member: 5550"] This probably belongs in a different thread but... Yeah we're likely to replace Danny Hall this year, if not next, but not because he's a sorry coach just not meeting everyone's lofty expectations of going to the CWS & coupled with the fact he's getting long in the tooth and new blood is needed. It's time, but maybe he's being asked to stay because the other 2 programs are under heavy duress with football currently undergoing massive changes & basketball needing massive changes badly. There was a lot of whining about Johnson & many couldn't wait to see him go. That worked out great. Thankfully, we seemed to have at least gotten us back to where we won't be a joke any more in football. I hated Hewitt, was glad to see him go but we couldn't attract a coach that wanted to come here. That worked out great also. There's a common theme here. GT does not change major sports program coaches well, we're very poor selectors of replacement coaches and seem to buy the hopey/changey BS from whoever's left in line after the top candidates used us for pays raises, contract extrensions or to make their real destination pay more. We fall for the smoke & mirrors with mindboggling predictability & we enter into abysmal contracts that hamstring us near term and shackle us long term out of sheer desparation and embarassement once we get jilted 3-4 times. We're terrible at fundraising, then we lauch a campaign and see what's possible, but we don't follow thru with the momentum and in the process manage to alienate loyal, long term supporters. Maybe this time it will be different. We're horrible at managing large capital projects and our budget, we look like the Federal Government in our rampant ineptitude. Glad J Batt is here & along with Cabrera as they seem to understand the current state and all the issues plaguing our sports programs. It's just gonna 4-5 years for these guys to unsrew this mess. They inherited a collasal clusterF & it's more than just rolling a few heads at the top. [/QUOTE]
