I'm not reading all of that. I think it premature to fire MA before he has been here 5 years, so many fans wanted MA (I am not one of them) that he needs to be given enough time to show whether he can be successful here or not.
That's one of the main reasons I was extremely leery of hiring Anderson in the first place. Our fan base was so obsessed with recreating the glory days of Nolan wanted to bring in Anderson because it gave them that old feeling. USC football has a similar thing going on right now.
I'm also always hesitant to bring in a guy with deep ties and roots in the state because it's harder to get people to both judge them objectively and be willing to cut ties when they should be cut, and it's why Nutt was able to stick around for 10 years and it's probably why Long wanted nothing to with Malzahn.

Mike isn't Nolan.

Mike in no way compares to Nutt, Nutt was able to stick around because he forged alliances with influential boosters and BOT members. Mike isn't doing that, the University received a letter from the NCAA warning them about the booster control of the athletic department not that long ago.
There are people who have had a dislike for Anderson because of Nolan's actions, no one blamed Nutt for being on Crowe's staff.

It was also a clever way to get some spark back in the program, fast. And I think interest has picked up a lot, even with our struggles. Should mike not be able to do here what he's done elsewhere, we're still gonna be in a better positon than when mike came in.
