Even if we go 14-0 in 2021 CL wont get looked at for a bigger school after 2 less than stellar years. Anything .500 or better probably gets him a contract extension unfortunately. I'm hoping for 5-7 and relieved of duties by Halloween. Does anyone think (The HC we don’t speak of) realizes heâs in over his head and if given the chance to be an OC at a power 5 he would jump on it?

I won't even get into the three seasons before head scratcher arrived but we have had the supposed two best recruiting classes in school history and we hope to go 6-6. Wow. I guess Hawkins idea of mediocrity and failure differs from ours. You are either intentionally not understanding my post or I didn't communicate it clearly enough. You guys have won. I concede. (The HC we don’t speak of) is the worst football coach in the history of football or coaches, stagecoach or otherwise. Ok? Now that we've stipulated that the pitchforks are correct and (The HC we don’t speak of) is the worst, can we have a realistic conversation about next season? I never said "I'm hoping for 6-6" or "We should be excited to go 6-6". I literally typed out that I believe 6-6 is the baseline given the schedule. You are confident, as you've said on other threads, that Troy will win 1 or 2 games next year and I'm trying to caution you: that doesn't seem realistic. Your prediction would be easy to deal with. Troy goes 0-12 and (The HC we don’t speak of) is run out of town. You aren't dealing with the real concern that Troy goes 8-4. You can bring up what the overall record would be until you are blue in the face, but Brent Jones will have a tough decision to make if that becomes reality. And we all should be thankful that Hawkins has not allowed this institution to settle for mediocrity. In his 30 years at the helm, Troy's transformation has been miraculous. In the grand scheme of things, yelling about him making bad decisions about football seems to lack perspective. I completely understand and even agree. Except for 3 things. 1) It's never a nightmare in my book when Troy enjoys success. Even when I don't like the coach. I'll celebrate and cheer and pull for our success, not failure. 2) I don't think 8 wins is very realistic. I don't think anything more than 5 wins is really likely. 3) Dr. Hawkins has been an incredible leader and asset for Troy. He's made a profound impact on me personally. However, he is near the point CLB was the last 3 years of his tenure. Time to transition before the legacy is tainted a bit.

And what have we done offensively the last two seasons against a team with a winning record that would justify a P5 school to hire him as a OC? Oh, excuse me...Kansas wanted him. Maybe if we throw in three cows, a bull and a used wheat thresher maybe they will hire him back.

After last year we hit a bee strength and conditioning coach, what coaching changes are necessary other than the obvious HC position! Mullins fired 2 defensive coaches at Florida! I canât believe that (The HC we don’t speak of) is so confident and loves the direction of the program that he would not make any changes! Itâs clear that his offensive genius is overrated and our offense has struggled under his leadership! Is he calling the offensive calls? How can he be happy with our offensive woes for 2 years! Defense has improved but still lacks the coaching to finish an entire game!

Who would want to come to a program for a year then get fired when the coach gets canned the same year you get there? Wouldnât even be worth moving in my opinion.
Coaches talk, coaches around the country know Troy is a dumpster fire right now and most coaches of merit donât want to be on Olâ (The HC we don’t speak of)âs sinking ship.
