Babers fired according to Thamel

Thamel usually knows what he's talking about, so disappointed not to see Chadwell or Mullen on there-They'd be slam dunks. I like White, but think he is a tough sell now as a DC of a 5-6 team. I also hope Wildhack doesn't force an SU alum hire like Austin, who has been out of the college game for a while.
For the 1000000th time…Mullen ain’t coming near Cuse…nor is Chip Kelly or Brian Kelly or Nick Saban or Jimbo Fisher…
 
I said I'd let the season play out. I remember JW saying at one time that making bowls was important but so was showing progress year over year. We were 7-5 last year. Once we couldn't get to 7-5 that was it. We win last night he would have survived to see another day. Now we need to fully support the new coach. And in today’s world that means NIL. I hope everyone here is donating till it hurts. Put up time.

Word is JW told DB before the season the goal for this season was 7-5. Apparently this was Re-emphasized following the FSU game. The loss last night put 7-5 out of reach, this the action taken this morning.


Fran Brown is a name I’m hearing.

Exactly
 
Aren't you one of the posters that made a comment along these lines about Babers not being fired in-season? Maybe take it easy on the absolutes moving forward...
Don’t recall thinking or saying that was an absolute. Really can’t be with the fall portal. But those coaches aren’t coming here absolutely. My guess is Tony gets announced ina few day

Fran is a gamble. Workhorse recruiter who has been rising up the ranks

Would be intriguing
 


Is one preferable over the other? Or, is there a better option elsewhere?
 
And 3 of our last 4 coaches get fired after GTech games…

This
He had suitable backups. One was bought away the other left for playing time in the off season. This is how college football works now. The programs with the most money will be recruiting our players. Most will be bought away so I doubt we can ever have consistent success ever again. If Lamson and Sellers are in this team it would be a completely different situation
 
JW is a thorough guy…he didn’t fire Dino not knowing which direction he’s going…my guess is the guy is basically done deal at this point. With the portal have to move fast
Yeah, I don't think we'll be hiring a search firm (unless already done).

Sellers is a true freshman and Lamson has looked awful at Stanford.
 
I'd be shocked if John hasn't been researching this a lot earlier and has been ready just in case he pulled the trigger, thus why the trigger being pulled?
For sure
 
Under Dino Babers we will never have a starting QB that stays healthy. Our offensive identity is put our playmakers in harms way and hope we pull out a few wins.
Why is that exactly?? Explain what you mean “under his system “.
 
“If”

If our entire season’s success rides on one player who doesn’t have a suitable backup - you think that’s acceptable for a guy making $4m a year?
I agree, with a note of caution. CDRW was a good chance to take, and might even work out when he calms down. But I think the program needs to look at what happened with Sellers’ recruitment. Again, no matter who walks in the door, we have to be able to win that kind of recruiting situation. I continue to believe it was $ and until and unless that is “fixed” it won’t matter who is hired.
 
God forbid someone should post that Dino is a nice guy. It immediately forces sone knee-jerk post about his W/L record. Or snarky post about how “you must have wanted to retain him.” Relax people. Two things can be true at the same time. We all know the facts about the last 8 years, AND Dino is a good guy.

Moving on.
I’ve had to layoff plenty of nice people. It’s never easy. He can be nice and less than adequate in his job.
