It's cheaper to find and spend a few mil for players from the transfer portal and a new OC vs. the $16 mil for Pittman plus all the assistant coaches which puts it about $20-$25 mil plus having to hire a new HC and entire staff.

I went back and watched his presser.

Something evidently happened this week because he was asked about him saying he thinks he will have the NIL money to rebuild the roster, and if something happened this week to make him say that.

His response was

No, well yes, but I don't want to talk about it yet. Then he looks at Hunter and said, "I kind of blew that didn't I" Everybody laughs and he responds, answer is no and i'll leave it at that right now.

If the OL gets fixed and we hire a good fit at OC, but we still don’t improve with Pittman, he should be fired.

But everyone knows we’d be much better if those two things are fixed, it’s the uncertainty that fans are worried about. Their doubt is warranted because he blundered the last OC hire and the OL shouldn’t be an issue under a career OL coach, unless the majority of the offensive issues have been due to the talent on the OL. Which might be fixed this offseason with NIL. Just about any OC would look good with a good OL.

tldr - fix the OL and Pittman saves his job

Aren’t most the assistants on a year to year?

Except OC/Dc?
