[QUOTE="the Castle on Daniel, post: 1567547, member: 650015"] I agree, but I have a sinking feeling in my gut that tells me we're going 3-9, 3-9, 4-8, 4-8, Bret fired and we're no closer to mediocrity than we are now. There was no rush to find someone this year. A program as lackluster as ours needs to be sold over months to the right person. We should have spent all of this year selling the program to someone consistent and underpaid and made money moves in 2021. Lovie was happy to retire then anyway. I generally don't have strong opinions on FB hires and I hope I'm wrong, but I'm convinced this is one we'll have buyers remorse on fairly early in his tenure. [/QUOTE]
