Wait ? What ? "Coaching makes a difference ?" Are you sure ? They have worst facilities than Troy, they are not allowed to move forward.

Coaching doesn't make a bit of difference haven't you learned anything from this board. Our problems are we don't have a locker room like New Mexico, SMU, Vanderbilt, UConn, Kentucky and other winning programs with great facilities.

Heard that a lot at the game, we missed our chance. If Blakney leaves we will hire some SEC coach, probably from ole miss or cowbell u., that has never been a HC. Might be a great one, might not. I like to go with proven winners...like Clark.

Hearing Larry wants to retire after a winning season. So could be after the 2015 season. If we have a losing or non winning (losing) season and he is given a choice things are bad wrong. Hartwell has more of a backbone than that. There is not a person on this board who would still have their job or be in business if they had performed as poorly as coach has over the last 3 yrs. And let's be honest. Something I am having to come to grip with - coach has been to loose handed with the program long before 3 yrs ago. I hope there is ongoing evaluation in the future.

agree, I said on this board before the UAB game, working in Birmingham the last 5 years, I have seen UAB fans / coworkers excited with a hire. This coach from people I work with say he is a class act, and strong with discipline and a players coach. We missed out on a good hire for sure. Not sure why he would now want to come to Troy. On the waiting until a winning season to retire, have we done so well on recruiting the last couple of years, or planning to, that we anticipate a winning season by 2015? Confused on that. or is that just hear say. I cannot imagine if this season Troy does not win at least 7 games that the AD will not clean house. That would make no sense whatsoever. But I am not an insider as some of you appear to be, so clueless as to the true facts. Maybe my business mind is just not the way football programs are really ran, but if you just break even year after year, or have a loss year after year, one must make changes. Or that is how it happens in the "real world" .

The question is do we have enough money to clean house and pony up the money to hire quality coaches?
As soon as I start my new job, I'm rejoining the Trojan Warrior program... I'm looking forward to it.

I'm looking forward to it. Well, before Bolt was hired we didn't have the extra $75,000 to hire the defensive coordinator that was a clear cut unanimous choice. so when change occurs one of two things will happen we will pay a staff close to what this staff is making and you drastically narrow the list of candidates. Doesn't mean you can't get lucky and land a good one. Or we, as donors and fans, pony up some money to get the best possible coach and give our administration a much larger group to choose from. I think I'll have a beer.

Sir, I've never had a desire to "pop a puppy's can" in my life. I believe you posted that in the wrong forum. I think I'll have a beer.

Maybe not for buildings but for salary. So which is it all you insiders. Someone/something not telling the truth somewhere.

Will bring in the change (checks). People on this board will give reguardless. We need the money of those who only give to winners also.

CLB wants to retire after a winning season? People in Hell want ice water but they're not getting it. Hartwell HAS to be prepared by date "x" to call CLB into his office and say the following: "You will have a press conference on date "y" where you will announce your retirement which will be effective at the end of the 2014 Season. We will then celebrate you as you deserve. Or...should you choose not to have said press conference, you will be terminated on date "z", there will be an interim Coach to take your place the remainder of the season, you will not be celebrated and you will return or purchase your white Tundra."
Pretty simple really.
