The top two names on their short list are the top two on my wish list here.

Damn it!

They are top 2 on most lists outside of the "names everyone knows" list (Petrino, Gruden, etc...)

P isn't getting fired after this season, as much as I'd like him to. 5-7 and 5-7/6-6 doesn't get you canned after two years. By the grace of Don Brown, P hasn't had a disastrous season yet. Now, after next year, if we are 5-7 or worse next year, there will be no excuse- but P has saved his job over the last two weeks.

Colorado fired their coach after two seasons.

Colorado firing was a bit different considering how horrific that team has played the last two years. UConn hasn't been THAT bad.

But...it is interesting to see a program make the change at 2 years....it's not going to happen here...but it is good to know that the precedent has been set.

The only way it happens is if Warde plays the "I want to win or lose with coaches I hire" card. I don't see it happening, but it is possible.

Wasn't necessarily past 2 years as much as past 7 years. They are the true dumpster fire.
