Shatel: Mike Riley goes on offensive with staff changes, but creates more questions than answers

[Landlord]

I think this is a fair article. The flurry of activity is begging questions.

Honestly zoogs, the only question that it begs in my mind is why our program hasn't made such moves prior to 2017 over the past 15ish seasons.

Because who wants to fire their best friends?

 

[Undone]

Nobody.

My turn: Who wants to be a football coach that makes $2.7 million a year for one of the most storied programs of all time that has recently experienced a fall from greatness?

 

[Enhance]

Nobody.

I would. I mean, I wouldn't last very long, but $2.7 million isn't bad.

It is not urgency...it is being realistic.

Another thing to consider:

We tend to look at these situations as if it's *only* a question of performance. Nobody on this forum should claim to know what's actually going on behind the scenes.

Sure, Riley and Banker have had a relationship for a long, long time. How do we know that there wasn't a falling out that occurred over the 6-12 months? We don't know the story. We'll let it play out.

Obviously, if in two years we're no better on defense there will be a monumental grumbling from the fan base in its typical, fickle fashion. But just remember, we don't know all that's going on behind the scenes.

Enhance, the point I was making that of course, nobody wants to hire fire their long-time friends. But it comes with the territory of the assignment that Riley has.

That seems pretty simple to understand.

I just wanted to share the salary would be cool. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yes, I would also like to make $2.7 million a year.
