Indeed.  However, IMO, it's these words of his where the larger problem lies.  When you have leadership setting a bar so low, this is what you get.  Nowadays, getting to a bowl (at least in minimalist fashion as we are talking about here) is hardly a significant feat.  Especially, when getting 6 total wins is the threshold, regardless of whether you've a pathetic losing conference record of 2-6.  Think about that.

Moreover, Wildhack knows he's on record (get to a bowl and all's good so to speak) publicly, and realizes his already questionable credibility would take a further blow if Dino does get to a bowl and he fires him anyways.

Regardless of how incredibly embarrassing for the university, et al these past 4 games have been, especially while being broadcast nationally for the entire viewing sports public to witness, he knows that the pickle he finds himself in today is of his own doing and creation.  At his age, he is of the generation that one's word still actually stands for something, regardless of how low of bar he set.
