[QUOTE="Boomergump, post: 192232, member: 639"] I have just now gotten back to my computer after a day's work to read this thread, that I suspected surely would exist, despite not being Nostradamus. Like everybody, I am frustrated by the loss. It was ANOTHER contest we had a perfectly good chance to win, but failed to do so. I hear phrases like "being held accountable" and so forth being thrown around like confetti. What does that mean exactly in this context? 50% of ALL teams in CFB contests end up on the losing side BY DESIGN, and each of them need to be held accountable? To what extent? The way it sounds around here sometimes, every losing team should relieve its current coach of their duties immediately because losing is, after all, unacceptable. Having been a coach myself for years and having seen things go horribly wrong many times for longish stretches, despite my very best efforts to provide what I thought was a quality coaching product, I sympathize to a great degree with our current coach. What I ask of each of you, who may be of the opinion that CPJ be let go, please, at least, attach your position to his ENTIRE coaching resume at GT and not just the misfortunes of an 8 game stretch, or shorter. Failure to do so just makes you look reactionary and borderline immature in my eyes, though I truly hate to say it that way. I am willing to listen to you. He has a record. It is easily producible. If you feel his full record is unacceptable, then so be it, make the passioned argument to the best of your ability and then state your remedy. Believe it or not, there could come a time in my mind when asking CPJ (or any coach) to leave would be appropriate. I am, after all, loyal to my Yellow Jackets first and no individual. For me, it was obvious B!(( L&#!$ needed to go and there was no doubt in my mind. The last 8 years have been far from perfect but they have been far from horrible too. [/QUOTE]
