No, I haven't.  But it wasn't just TGD as so many haters on this board want to believe.  It was also Shaw with the no financial support for years thanks to a stupid accounting system that was in place and Jake when he refused to recommend to Cantor that PP be fired so he didn't have to fire his "friend", the "friend" he himself was going to fire on the spot a little over a month earlier after the loss to Temple in mid November.  Timing in sports is everything.  Does this absolve TGD of his guilt associated with it?   No.  But considering when TGD was hired and the lack of available coaches at that time and stupidly trusting NFL coaches and his buddy Pete Carroll at USC, I can at least understand why he made that disastrous choice.

Anyone who has followed TGD's coaching moves since he came to SU across all sports and the lack of many great coaching moves since he left USC should see, the guy is usually spot on with his coaching decisions.   And keep in mind, even geniuses like Jurich can make mistakes, see Kragthorpe.
