Just what the hell does that mean?
This reads like Wildhack was the anonymous source.
If we've really stretched ourselves this thin, then just let him coach until the end of his contract and be a lame duck. Make a decision after that season.
Who cares, won't look much different than this year, even recruiting as a lame duck.
But I'd move on after that, find someone cheap that is overly appreciative of the opportunity. Would be better than the guy who seems to have checked out.
we aren't flush with cash for buy out, new hire or NIL. Donors need to step up.Anyone care to summarize what's beyond the headline?

If SU can't buy out ONE YEAR of Dino's contract then we should downgrade the program.we aren't flush with cash for buy out, new hire or NIL. Donors need to step up.

And moving season ticket holders seats and raising ticket prices at the same time. Why buy season tix anymore? You’ll be able to sit wherever you want and go the games you want without the investmentThat is backwards. If we go 5-7 and Dino is still HC it might be the final nail in the coffin for what little is left of the FB fanbase. People will say that they are done and will not comeback as anything more than a casual fan. We will be Duke and Wake as a fanbase. Attendance is down this year as it is. Keeping him will make that worse. No one is going to invest in NIL while Dino is still here. And the longer he stays the less people will care to buy back in for the future.
Here is where I disagree strongly with many here. Saying it’s time for a change based on results is fine, making Coach Babers into some kind of grifter thats fleecing the University is wrong. Everyone that knows the coach knows that’s not who he is, having a bad run of games does not mean you have no character. I’ll stand by that .So you sign a coach to a contract of which you can’t afford to buy out if need be? AD malpractice
Dino hit the jackpot

Wondered that too but I don't think it was after thinking through it. It was too negative of a source to be JW -- why go out there and crap on the opportunity for the next coach you're going to have to hire unless he knows it won't be this year and thinks the NIL situation will be better by then.This reads like Wildhack was the anonymous source.

that athletic dept has some nerve with the amount of discount they got from Jim Boeheim for about 25 years.If SU can't buy out ONE YEAR of Dino's contract then we should downgrade the program.
I'm 100% serious.
I also don't believe that for a second.
well the dome is probably 10x as expensive to maintain as a normal stadium.. Or it used to be anyway.I’m so tired of “Cry me a River” about lack of funds. BC, Wake, Pitt, Virginia, GT, Duke, and Miami all draw lousy crowds for football. Syracuse leads in attendance every year in basketball, but we can’t compete with any of these schools. SU probably receives more money for naming rights for the Dome than any other college stadium in the country. I believe SU raised $47 million last year for donations, which might be the highest in the ACC. We get an even split of money with all ACC schools, yet we can’t compete. JB was on the cheap for 47 years compared to other top programs. Dino is number 47 out 67 in salary. Where the hell are they spending the money? I’m tired of excuses.
I'm in the "results stink, need a change" camp. No one rational is questioning that Dino got an extension and stopped working. I would find that hard to believe.Here is where I disagree strongly with many here.
