    Look my schedule is busy but I’m willing to move things around and do it for $500k. I promise you it won’t be worse.

    Roberts plate is obviously too full with coaching up what appears to be another defense that can't find its posterior using both hands. He doesn't have time to be interim coach. His current job seems to be more than a FT one.

    yes, he hired a bunch of coaches he has worked with before rather than trying to bring in the best available.

    He is not getting fired during the season. What would be the point?

    Maybe it would send the message to the people that are paying all their salaries that they are at least being heard.

    Having ample time to do our homework on who the next guy is?

    We fired Zook, Muschamp, McElwain, and Mullen all during the season FOR LESS!!!!

    Zook never had a losing season and we thought he was 'terrible'. Little did we know.

    A victim of following spurrier. I wish spurrier would have had a little more of a succession plan.
