not firing golden will only make the rebuilding job even tougher for the replacement. this wont end well.
people need to understand that if Golden leaves in the next month the 2015 will most likely be a dumpster fire
majority of recruits will leave
Most people understand it's the difference between 2015 potentially being a dumpster fire and both 2015 & 2016 almost definitely being a dumpster fire. The new coach recruiting bump would come into effect immediately for 2016 if Golden leaves now, and that's a far more important class to salvage.
And this class, if Scarlett and Williams flip, ends up being a dumpster fire anyway. They may leave regardless of what happens with Golden. I'd gladly sacrifice one class that's very average to begin with in order to bring in a real coach, have legitimate optimism surround the program, and have a chance at landing a monster 2016 class.
Some fans can get all hyped about the early 2016 commits, but most of them won't be committed at this time next year with another season of Al Golden sinking us further into mediocrity. We already lost one stud (Snelson) from that class, and he certainly won't be the last unless sweeping change is made.
