[QUOTE="RedRocksIllini, post: 1350461, member: 560974"] Hopefully you are correct. But suppose next year doesn't go well and we repeat a 2-10 season or something along those lines where progress is not at all clear. And maybe the 2019 recruiting class is rated as poorly as 2018. Do you extend him then? I wouldn't. (Nor would I consider firing him at that point.) Maybe Whitman is laying the groundwork for post-2018 in the event the faithful become considerably less faithful. Or maybe Whitman avoids this unpleasant possibility and extends him after this season. Ideally, this is all moot and an extension after next season is an easy decision. [/QUOTE]
