will riley be fired before wisky game if he drops 1 to Rut or illinois?

Who on this staff get the interim tag? Diaco would be bad and Lang's would be worse imo.

Well, before the season I would said no...he finishes out the season no matter what; however, the Eichorst firing now leaves me not so sure anymore.

There is a good possibility. Cant see a loss to Rutgers not being he's last game, thats pretty much "anything/anyone else would be better" territory.

You don't understand sports 

IF we are unable to beat Rutgers, as in it's impossible, then it's most definitely impossible to beat anyone else on our schedule.

 

That being said, we CAN beat anyone on our schedule. Obviously, it would take a helluva lot better performance from the staff and players for that to happen, though.

It's business, you budget & save to fix.  The fastest fix is the asst. that are not pulling their weight.  

and when the head coach isn't pulling his?

I think we'll get another press conference this week with a loss today.  The pressure on chancellor Green will be immense.

 

A win today and a loss against Illinois would still be really bad, but maybe not pull the trigger bad.

I don't see them firing Coach Riley before the year is out, no matter the results.  We are known for firing 9-3 coaches, kicking one to the curb in season is not a good look to add to that.  If the decision has been made to fire Coach Riley, they can look and talk to people.  Firing him in season does not give us a head start on anyone. 

 

I think he has been told what it will take to keep his job.  They spoke to him directly.  Some communication was voiced as to his future.  I think if he was going to be fired in season, it would have happened when the AD was axed.

Well if it isn't a splash hire that everyone is looking for then what's the point because if you lose the top recruits we have they need to be replaced with other top recruits or you are looking at another year at least we won't be very good 

Wrong. This team is vastly underperforming. Any good coach will get more out of them. Bo took the calihan crew from 5 to 9 wins in one season. Why is there so much fear of failure? We are failing now. Who cares if it gets worse? You keep trying to get better.
