I will happily, ecstatically eat crow if we win more than we lose next year. I will party my ass off at the bowl game. I will buy a drink for any Boneyarder I run into there. Ain't gonna happen.
And this is the time we have to evaluate WM. Not now. If our suspicions are correct, when does WM pull the trigger and who does he get. If he fired PP after this season his coaching search would have less candidates then if he fires PP next season. There are coaches who don't want to go in to a program, uprooting their family knowing they have only two years to prove themselves.

Why don't they just fire coach P while they're at it and start fresh.

Disagree canning PP Dec. 2 would have reduced the number of HC candidates. There would be virtually the same pool factoring things "out of our control" as the poohbas like to say - geography and unsettled conference status. Most coaches understand are smart enough to realize PP was hired by an AD who was canned six months later for making bad decisions (like hiring PP and pissing off a major donor in the process). Second, as shaky as UConn's position is, it is only one of 65 or so paying over $1 million plus. Any decent, ambitious young coach worth his salt would take a 2-year window as a challenge.

A lot of great coaches started in the MAC (Urban Meyer, etc), and as bad as things are we're still a notch or two above that. I'd take a quick run of success over what we're stuck with now any day.
