There is zero reason to bring Autry back.  Zero.

First things first.  In today's game he doesn't have to wait for a recruiting class or two to be ready to contribute.  He can pick a roster, if we are willing to pay, from a plethora of available players.

Second, and most importantly, last season was our worst since the 1960's.  Jim Boeheim was half asleep his last couple of years and starting his All Family Reunion team and didn't have a year that bad.  Autry is 46-38 (0.547) here all time.  It's possible, even likely, he finishes his tenure here at 50-46 (.520).  Boeheim won 51 games his last three seasons combined.

Third, does anyone get better here? Honestly?  It seems like the majority of players who walk through the door were better before they got here or the ones that leave, find more success elsewhere.

Retaining Autry or even pushing the idea it's being considered is a colossal mistake.  It was after last year and it will be exponentially worse at the end of this season.
