No its not Bees. You might want to admit that he didnt leave for money. As to Babers im on record as to my opinion on his strengths and weaknesses.
No. As to mismanaging words please read my post again. I didn't say that JW was running the football program so please don't take my words and twist them to your liking. To be clear I believe that JW is very much hands on with Dino. Micromanaging him to be exact.
The real question is whether Babers has done enough to get an extension whenever his contract is up. This last year helped a lot there, but it’s still a tough question. The 5 game losing streak was bad enough, but I guess you can blame it on injuries? That’s the problem with Babers though, you always have to find a way to defend something. The crazy penalties, still multiple dumb calls a game, inability to recruit wide receivers, inability to put out an even average offensive line… in general for a guy who came in as supposed offensive genus, he’s had terrible offenses. Even this past year, if the offense had even been average we would have won more games.
Some of the takes in this thread are staggering.

I just re read what I posted, and I can see how it came across which was wrong. I realize that JW isn't running the day-to-day operations of the football program. He isn't running practice, calling plays etc. What I do believe is happening is that he is directing Dino on big decisions. As to Dino being renewed if he makes a bowl next year yes, he should be renewed but his contract needs to be more on the incentive side with a reasonable buy out.

The only games I’d really want back are Pitt & WF, which we were beat up for both. And honestly, I thought we were better. But that’s a dangerous game to play, because I’m sure Purdue and Virginia would say the same thing.Yeah, the fact that apparently some fans would feel better about this season, had we LOST a game or 2 out of those first 6, but picked up a W or 2 during those 5 straight L, and that being somehow better, because: reasons?
I can’t even.
Thank you.
lol he's always making digs about Dino and the staff as if he knows more than them. Creating little stories in his head and trying to make them come across as facts. He doesnt back it up so it comes across as unknowledgable. We all have concerns with Dino in some way but that guy goes over board with the digs. There's some good people on that staff. Im not going to let false narratives live on this board.
Worse than that...some are borderline delusional.Some of the takes in this thread are staggering.

Hey! I take pride in being bats* crazy!
Listen. Im on record as saying he is a good CEO type. I dont think he is a good in game coach. He has never been a coordinator other than the one time he was relieved of his duties mid season. His recruiting is average at best. He is the highest paid employee in the history of Syracuse University and has 2 winning seasons. His in conference record and November records are awful.
Maybe it's just an emotional thing for me right now, but I don't have the same fuzzies for TW being the future HC after leaving laterally for Nebraska (Not exactly Alabama). I would have felt differently if he left for a HC job. I'm not saying I would not consider him, but he loses that extra edge of being an SU guy. I think his move makes it harder for him to sell stability to the fanbase and recruits.
You are not saying anything most of us havent said. We all want more. He's been coaching since 1984 and learned from various head coaches and you think Dino doesnt know how to run a football program? You say stuff like because you want a new coach but that's not going to start a movement to get him fired. Its not in our control.
Like any good boss should? I know that my boss isnt allowing me to hire anybody or make decisions that affect the whole entity, if it doesn’t fit his vision of what the company is or where it is going. I would think that the coaches that have the freedom to do whatever they please is few and far between.
Nebraska is 9th all time in wins, we are 30th. 5 national titles to our 1. Their football budget in the B10 is perhaps double ours. Yes they have been a train wreck lately but our train wreck days aren’t far in the rear view. I would hardly call it a lateral move.
