re: Ole Miss is Completely Delusional

Enh.

I have become a firm believer if you think the head coach is not the guy to get the job done then you need to let him go. Letting him linger around the program like a fart in an elevator does no one any good.

Luke was not the "guy" and he never was going to be the "guy". He took the fall when Ole Miss got hit with sanctions and kept the team vaguely competitive. To his credit he did the best he could in a bad situation but he showed no signs of building Ole Miss into a team that could contend for the West again.

There is nothing wrong with hiring a coach to soak up a painful few years of sanctions and rebuilding. Shula at Alabama is prime example of someone doing a fine job in a horrible situation and setting the table for someone else to come in and do great.

Luke did his job and was well paid to do it.

I do, however, think he would have been back for one more year if they had beat State. The Ole Miss Piss did him in.
