Matt Viator out at ULM. The carousel is spinning. It is time for CJH and ADBJ to hop on.
Side note, is ULM the worst job in CFB?

Unless we want MTSU 2.0, the staff is going to have to take this game seriously, which hasn't been (The HC we don’t speak of)'s strong suit vs lesser opponents.

Main reason is money. But Don't have a lot of faith in either CJH and ADBJ to make a call on the replacement. A true roll of the dice. ULM is near the rock bottom of worst job. Say UMass is the worst. No support, no league, etc.

I don't like it, but improving your record in year two is usually enough to keep your job.

Three 10 win seasons in a row..Coach leaves.....new coach arrives....5-7 year one ...6-6 year two (including 0-5 in Sun Belt East "predicted" and all 6 wins against teams with losing records ) Coach keeps job for improving year two?? Only at Troy

It's in the top five with New Mexico State, UMass, Kent St (low pay, worst facilities in the MAC and no real tradition) and in my opinion Akron?? (this one is hard to fathom as I'm from Akron. Nice city, big campus, best facilities in the MAC (stadium and indoor facility) and in prime recruiting area..and Terry Bowden is the only person to remotely sniff success in it's history. Even when they were D2 and 1-AA they played in the 36.000 seat Rubber Bowl and couldn't win and zero fan interest.

Unless Covid changes things schedule wise improving year three (2021) is unlikely. More than likely losses South Carolina, Liberty, App St, Coastal. Toss ups Southern Miss, Georgia Southern, Ga State. And not sure if we play ULL next year. I don't see 10-2. Talent is there but Chips don't change and leopards don't change their spots. I see 5-7 or 6-6 next year

LIKE AT West Virginia, Neal Brown at WVU 2019 - 5-7 2020 - 5-5 (most likely) The 3 years before he got there were 10-3, 7-6 and 8-4. FoulPole is right. It happens everywhere. I just will continue to cheer and support our Trojans to win whoever the coach.

In 2019 he was losing games 20-28, and now he is winning them 26-20, a two touchdown per game improvement. In a normal season he probably has two more cupcakes and ends 7-5.

And yes NB is on the hot seat for sure. My PT is a WVU alumni and they are losing patience with him. Losing VK over that snow flake punk was a HUGE blow to him for sure this season.

Everything I've heard in the national media is they are elated with job he has done and knew it was not going to be a quick fix when Holgorsen left.

You can't improve your margin of victory by 14 points per game and be on the hot seat. Despite losing VK, WVU went from the 73rd ranked scoring defense to the 22nd ranked scoring defense.

They aren't happy with the record. W-L is all that matters to fans.

Speaking of ULM, anyone think our game against them still gets played? They are off this week which means they have to attempt to hold a team together to play a meaningless game with no head coach in 10 days. If the SBC allows it, I'm betting we don't get that 12th game.

If they don't play it that will be the biggest black eye a football program could take. It would be forfeit unless they could hide it under COVID tests. Y'all expect a football program to just toss up their hands and say "no mas"? What about the honor and glory of the Duck People and Terry Bradshaw??? I expect any team to live up to their commitments and play the games they said theyd play. And if they don't, I'll never buy another ticket to sit in front of their storage containers turned luxury boxes.

We have no reason to not want to play this game. In fact, we every reason to want to play it. If it comes out that we have too many positive tests to play, I would think that is 100% true. Just look at the way we've marched out on the field to play games with multiple folks (including multiple coaches) out due to COVID. We've shown no signs of running away from a fight.
And to be fair, neither has ULM. This board invented that cowardice for them. I don't think they'll look for a way out.

They hid behind Covid once before, why not again. Quite frankly, I called our first Covid fiasco, I wouldn't be surprised to see it again this week and or next week.

The cupboard was far from bare when (The HC we don’t speak of) and company arrived.
