[QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 4392670, member: 833"] I don't think anyone is thinking these things through. I think a lot of Athletic Departments and alumni are having temper tantrums that cost the schools millions in unnecessary buyouts, blow up seasons, undermine the student athletes by blowing up the seasons, and creating long-term damage to the football programs with these early season guillotines. College football is not like the pros where a bad record gets a team a better draft pick. In college, a bad record runs off quality players, kills recruiting, and scares off potential successor coaches. Who wants to try to catch a falling knife, as a player or a coach? Even with the stupid mistakes Frost teams kept making, Nebraska has the talent to go 6-6 or even 7-5 this season if Frost had stuck around. That may not be great by Nebraska standards and would probably have gotten Frost fired anyway, but the next staff would have had some players to work with. The wheels are probably coming off Nebraska, ASU and Georgia Tech with these tantrum terminations, and they are probably adding a year or two to any rebuild, or the program gets so gutted by these dumb firings that it becomes the league doormat. The buyout issue is just a giant cherry on the top of these stupidity sundaes. One other issue I would add is that the conference and networks should step in here too. I don't have a problem with an early season firing if the coach has lost control of the program. But lighting a season on fire because the Athletic Department is having sadzz hurts the TV ratings, which impacts future TV and advertising revenue. Frost and Collins and Edwards can all be fired at year end after they have put up mediocre seasons that included competitive games in October and November. [/QUOTE]
