your reasoning is fine one addition Blake James must go as well....... he has not really covered himself in glory with key hires in Baseball now his HR hire in football has backfired.........When it fails we won't be out more money and have better reason to curtain call him. At least he can't reasonably blame it on someone else now and scape goat into an extra year or two.
Just think of it this way:
Coker - Cheap hire , lazy but acceptable until year 2006
Shannon - Cheap hire, lazy and not acceptable. So lazy all our 5* recruits came from 1 school.
Golden - More expensive hire all the money went to a house underneath the Palmetto expressway and his best fwiend
Richt - Most expensive hire no money spent on good staff, results meh for the most part.
Next Coach - Most expensive hire and boat loads of money spent on good staff, results TBD.
BTW Dawg fans are Laughing their rear end off at hire, feeling is it should have happened 4-6 years ago. no fire in the belly
and stubborn
