If you were to force JB out, the moment occurred when SU landed on probation
a second time, putting him on a list of maybe one who has gotten caught for
NCAA violations at the same school twice. At the time, it was enough, and
maybe the NCAA looks at that and doesn't give the penalties they did. But,
they are the NCAA, so who knows. You avoid a bunch of things, good and bad.
The time to have said goodbye was the end of last season, and Wildhack
should've come to an 'agreement' which took effect the moment Richmond and
Guerrier were eased out, and he focused on running a team based on his two
kids. You weaken the program so you can coach your kids, ok, but unless you
hit THIS_MILESTONE, when they're done, you are done.
Now you're in this sort of cycle, where he wants to coach until it's left in
a "good enough point" to leave for the next coach, but who decides it's good
enough? You could string that out forever if you wanted to. Or, you get
into a position where the program is in great shape, but is so good you
can talk yourself into it being strong enough that you can win a title, so
you stay. And if you miss, well, you were close, and maybe with a one more
piece ...
No. Cut the cord, bid adieu, thank you for your great time on the Hill, have
awards/ceremonies etc, and move on with the next guy.
