[QUOTE="Fighter of the Nightman, post: 1419421, member: 590800"] A Yeah, what?! REGARDLESS of what has happened since Ron Zook departed, he absolutely should have been removed. Hiring Beckman as his replacement was the dumb decision, not Zook's initial firing. Would I kill for some Ron Zook type seasons right about now? Yup, LOL. However, the second you stop respecting yourself as a college program, the second you admit yourself into purgatory. He was already underachieving with the talent we had, and he finished out the season 0-6 (friendly reminder that we made history with that one, folks). We had to TRY to improve on what we had. It didn't work out, but spoiler: if we are consistently going 8-4 every single year for a decade in the magical hypothetical future, we're going to try to improve on that, too! And we should!
