I appreciate you looking into this, but I have to agree with the article. There was one letter from Dear Leader that said something about not competing to lose, but Fester has survived a scandal of conduct unbecoming and has posted 10 struggle wins. I hope the seat is truly hot, but I don't think it is.

Well no one will really know until the season is over. I think this is going to be a much better team and I am excited!

Under ChipDip we have 10 wins, and 13 losses.
Now we have fans who think 7 wins is a miracle turnaround and will scream for an extension and raise. (The HC we don’t speak of) (The HC we don’t speak of) has drastically lowered expectations and has people clamoring for mediocrity, that's something even worse than the losses.

I think a solid 5 is the correct number.

I think as much as we all want it to be closer to a 4-5, (The HC we don’t speak of) in reality is probably in the 1-2 range. I haven't been around Troy long, but I'm picking up that there seems to be some complacency in the athletics department.
All we can ask is an improvement from years 1 and 2. If that doesn't happen, then I think it's time to explore our options.

There is n o question about it that (The HC we don’t speak of) is Level 5 and he knows it! The only reason he is still here is because of a huge buyout and Covid excuses. There should be a level 6 Should have been let go already. The only good thing is that the reality of being a Level 5 had made (The HC we don’t speak of) upgrade his coaching staff and his back is against the wall and he has to prove himself or he will never get a decent job again. I hope we win. For $700,000 a year and some of my money in his pocket, he owes it to us.

Courts should be able to issue warrants to just go into a coach`s house and just start taking things out to a moving van.

Not saying your wrong in your thoughts, but there are power brokers and money folks who have Prezâs ear that believe (The HC we don’t speak of) is a 4-5 and they have expressed such. His seat is hot. (And should be). Said this before, He needs 10 wins.

So long as the Hawkins are on the hill and Jack has any say in athletics the Chippy is Level 0 - Untouchable.

Itâs interesting (and funny)that a lot of folks believe that Jack is some sort of (The HC we don’t speak of) super fan. He is not. Jack is pragmatic. With the reduced burden of a large buyout after this year, (The HC we don’t speak of) seat is hot. If he doesnât win big time this year, chances are he gone.

I try really hard to not be a negative, pessimistic person - a realist with an attitude, maybe - but not a pessimist. That said, 2020 and all that is wrapped up in the virus and the political wrangling it has wrought, along with some other events in my my areas of interest and social circles, have caused me to have a really craappy outlook on things in general right now. I'm glad there is some optimism among members about this season, and maybe, as the season grows closer, I will begin to share that optimism, but right now, IT AIN'T THERE.

I certainly don't believe that chippy is a 1. I would love to see 10 wins with us beating Liberty. But as all Troy fans know we are going to be screwed out of at least 2 wins that seems to be the going rate every season. It breaks my heart to know he is staying with 7 to 8 wins

Liberty is the game to determine how hot the seat is for (The HC we don’t speak of). Beating a ranked opponent and finally defending the wall buys him a lot of security and hope of a 10 win season. Losing a close game pretty much keeps things the way they are now and gives us the same feeling as last year when we lost to Coastal. Getting blown out will make the seat fire hot and a loss to Southern Miss and SC might just send him packing early. With all that said I am hoping for at least 10 wins for our players and fans. See you at the vet Sept 11
