What's the word from the Presidents office?

You said awhile back that 7-5 would put him in real jeopardy.

Us students are currently on Thanksgiving break so I haven't heard anything since the 21st when everybody left the office expecting a nice comfortable win against lowly Virginia.

My guess is that the boosters are livid. I said a little while ago that I thought 6-6 made it a 50-50 shot. If they lose to Pitt and look bad while the seats are more empty than usual, my guess is he's in major trouble. The boosters wont tolerate that. If Paul Dimare pulls his support, he's done.

If they were ****ed that useless sheet and tie would already be gone. No reason to let this drag out.
 
Any update to this thread? What if we get blown out by Arkansas in a bowl and finish 6-7?
 
Man how much would it suck to play Arky and get bent over by Alex Collins a second time....Thanks Al!!!!!

Here I am.

I don't care what the admin is feeding publicly. A lot of them know Al sucks a bag of *** and there's a few reasons he is not fired now and hoping to coach linebackers at Purdue.

1. Money. His buyout is 7-8 million dollars and I have been told it's 8. Let me make it perfectly clear that the school has the money and more to burn. They just don't want to spend it.

2. Board of Trustees. Golden still has key supporters on the Board. Their reason for liking him isn't because of potential football reasons, but for public relations purposes and such of that nature. On top of that, there are plenty of Board members who either don't know what football means to the school or just don't care about football in general. Therefore, anything involving 8 million dollar spending better be massively important for academics. There are quite a few Board members who feel exactly like we all do: That Golden is a Jersey hack that couldn't coach the 2001 Hurricanes to a Big East title. Their vehemence is directly related to his lies/excuses and Penn State-gate has not been forgotten or forgiven. Even his most ardent supporters haven't forgotten about it.

3. APR and Graduation Rates. Golden has some of the best in the business. That is worth some leeway to many because they think that'll be attractive to recruits. That's there stupid mistake.

4. Last Year. The school had record braking season ticket sales. While those statistics were skewed because of the UNC/FSU package deal, it appeared that we had stimulated interest in the football team where attendance and revenue was about to swing up. Golden was given a lot of credit for that. They still are cautiously expectant for similar sales and the potential replication of money that could bring.

5. The Cloud. A lot of decision makers are woefully unaware about the Cloud and how important of a role it played. They think he was pulling in talent while up against almost impossible circumstances. Giving Golden another year could result in a team of talent that can just overwhelm teams ala the early Coker years. Once again, that's their own ignorance.

6. The Fans. A lot of the admin don't think the fans and boosters will exodus out. They think it's a bluff and they're calling it. That's going to be their downfall.

7. General Indifference from the admin, students, and fans. Self-explanatory.

He's not getting fired this year. A bowl loss to anybody and a 6-7 final record doesn't change that. But efforts are being made for him to coach somewhere else.

That's a good portion of what information I've got for you. I'll share more when I can.

@pb5cane: I CAN'T BE SHUT DOWN.
 
Cot **** why doesn't he just leave when he knows his dog**** philosophy is not working here, he has lost the team, and everyone hates him.
