Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 2202769, member: 622"] I did not watch the presser. Calling for a coach's head is a decision taking great care. Things to consider: 1) Record this season 2) Record last five season's 3) Record overall 4) Recent past recruiting 5) Current recruiting 6) Competition level on the field 7) Competition level on the recruiting trail 8) Academic performance 9) Personal performance/ behavior of student athletes off the field 10) Potential candidates to fill the role A failure to win championships year in an year out is not a sufficient reason to fire a coach. Especially when the competition level is increasing. Desko has left some cause for concern but there clearly are many factors one should consider before dumping one of he best all time coaches and one of the best coaches over the past decade, even the past few years. Desko has room for improvement. But throwing away one of the best is not a decision to take lightly. [/QUOTE]
