**Buzz Buzz Buzz** - Scott Strickenbaum's finest hour?

He is 63. If a big school calls him and offers 8-10m he’s clearly taking it in Dec/Jan. Nobody is saying he’s going to come tomorrow

 

You’re conveniently ignoring the destructive impact of constantly changing coaches. A multitude of bad hires in haste is what got us in the hole we’re in. Our next move has to be a good one.

I’m trying to stay purposeful in this exchange with you, so shitcan the ignorant insults. This isn’t personal

 

The problem isn’t that we fired, it’s who we hired.

Are you suggesting if we kept Champ, Mac, or Mullen we’d be in a significantly better spot than now? We’d be a shitty team under any of those circumstances

 

Of course you mean to be rude. I’ve explained my logic to both of you. There’s nothing more to explain. You don’t seem to be able to do this without trying to make it personal. You’re on your own

 

But what are you suggesting? Do you think the next 3 years will be better under Napier than say Cig, Kiffin, Fisch, etc? If that’s your argument then make it. I’m not sure if any of those coaches will succeed but I know Billy won’t

 

True but don't underestimate the whiners they'll go straight to Sun Belt Cignetti or some such thing

 

I don’t think if and when maybe is fired has anything to do with who we hire?

 

IU punted. He's out.

 

There’s really just no hurry. Firing him now or firing him two months from now makes no difference. Actually keeping him till the end of the season may be better.

 

Oh come on man! You are better than this…. It would be Sun Belt Curt.

 

I think that's a bit of a stretch. Cignetti is doing well now but so did the likes of Sonny Dykes. His prior success is at a lower level. That said, I think "proven" is overrated so I wouldn't hate a Cignetti hire.

 

You keep attaching the timeline to the only thing that matters, they were bad hires. Bad hires done slowly = bad hires done quickly.

 

So what are your credentials that would make your message board cowboy take, worth anything more than his, or any others?

Go:

 

Say what you want about Cignetti. What he’s doing in his first season at a B1G doormat is damn impressive. That roster is not much, understatement, and he’s whipping up some chicken salad. Indiana has not trailed at any point in any game this season, one of only 2 teams to do that. 63 is not old either.

 

The coach who keeps betting on himself beacuse he is getting up in age wouldn't jump at an opportunity at UF? Devoid of any logic.

 

I'm sold, when was the last time UF beat even a mid tier SEC team by half a hundred?

 

Because he is 63 he is going to likely have attitudes that will lead to valuing the opportunity IU gave him and he will have some loyalty. The generational attitudes are different and real.

 

Urban is only three years younger….so your point is what?

 

Guess you haven't listened to anything that is being said about his mindset or his history.

Alabama recruiting coordinator, said he doesn't want to get stuck and takes a chance at:
IUP 5 years
Elon 2 years, jumps to in conference team
JMU 4 years, jumps to Big 10
