This is absolutely true as I know it. The BOT guys who are powerful but haven’t always gotten involved as much with athletics, are woke and ****ed. Highsmith was an attempt to fix things and they were rebuffed. Powerful, wealthy people like that don’t like being rebuffed by essentially underlings.Nobody of any importance is sold on Manny - believe that. He has zero slack.
People here talk about the BOT like they know what’s actually going on. They don’t.
The disgust is palpable regarding last season. You don’t realize how hot Manny and Blake’s seats are. The “football” BOTs and big boosters were in open revolt just a few weeks ago...which is why some were pushing for Zo...because they wanted change NOW.
In the end, we all know that the die is cast for the 2020 season, nobody fires coaches this time of year - it’s not practical.
Save your billboard for the end of next season. If he ends up with some bullshlt 8 or 9 win record, with our schedule, that’s when to put the pressure on. Because clearly anything less than that and I don’t see how he doesn’t get fired, and an 11 win season or so, you really can’t fire him.
Or better yet, no matter the season next year, it’s time for Blake to go. But the billboard now, what the heck is the point?
Manny and Blake have no slack left after this upcoming season.
