Yes, until we can be certain that Shafer's tenure is a complete failure with no potential to improve, something that was clearly demonstrated in the G-Rob tenure. Keep in mind that Shafer already has one less win than G-Rob had in four years, so they are hardly comparable.

People who think that a revolving door coaching staff is the answer to building a program because it increases the likelihood of getting the "right guy" are foolish.  So are people who think throwing money at a famous coach to come here to save us. if we make him rich it will be less money for assistants. We've never had a an already famous coach come here, (Ossie Solem was the most prominent but his record wasn't spectacular). Coaches become famous here. Every coach after Schwartzwalder was an assistant on somebody's staff when he was hired, (Coach Mac head coached at UMASS a decade before). Whoever follows Shafer will likely have a similar resume. it would just be another spin of the roulette wheel. I'd rather stick this thing out at least through next season before we decide we have to spin that darn thing again. And things would have to stay dismal until then for me to want to do that.
