I think if you can save tens of millions of dollars, it makes sense. Especially since this coach is one of our own.
How bad would it look to fire our own guy who won a NC here after just 4 years?
It already looks bad we fired a 9 win coach every year, having to pay out his contract, fired the coach after him, paying out his contract, had the recent AD resign, paying out his contract. Do we want to tack on tens of millions of dollars on to the end of all that?
I believe Scott is here for the next 2-3 years. He's at least going to get 5 full years here to turn it around.
