Nope, just giving you all a glimpse of reality. You all want to run Golden out of town, fine. Just be ready for what comes next. Keep dreaming about that superstar coach that Donna is going to spend 4 million on.
Here's who Donna and James have on Speed Dial:
*Break Glass In Case of Emergency BRO*
C4L,
Do you think Golden wins a National Title (Even ACC) if he keeps everything status quo on the staff?
Status quo? no. But he will make changes. He's not stupid. He will also look a lot better with better talent, just like "Botch Davis" went from having planes calling for him to be fired, to being a legend that everyone is praying somehow comes back now. Even if he lays an egg, as long as he locks up this class, he can leave NEXT year, and we will be in MUCh better shape. IF he locks up this class, he will leave TWO Elite 11 QBs on the roster, plus two TWO shelf RBs, and two good solid RBs for depth. He will leave UNREAL talent on the OL and DL. Whoever the next coach is, they will have a LOT to work with.
If this class falls apart, we are back to square one. Yearby and Kaaya are coming here because of James Coley. If he bolts, I think we lose them both. Valentine will definitely bolt. I think we also lose Jenkins and Hester, probably a few more guys. That would be CRUSHING loses to this class.
And you all keep laughing, but Ive been following this program for over 3 decades. Based on everything this school has done regarding coaches, I will tell you that it is TWICE as likely we end up with Mario Cristobal, than with someone like CHud and about 20 times less likely that we end up with Petrino or some other big name. Its not going to happen.
