We have historically held onto bad coaches for too long. And our athletic department has tolerated mediocrity for decades. Fran should have been gone after 77-0. Sumlin should have been fired the minute the plane touched down after 59-0. No coach ever recovers from losses like that. And giving Jimbo an extension was idiocy.
The same for basketball and baseball. Childress should have been fired 5 years ago, and we kept Kennedy way too long also. If Buzz doesn’t have us in the tourney by next year, he needs to be gone also.
Every school in the SEC gives a coach 3-4 years, and then they move on. You know what you have by then. I’d give Jimbo one more year after this one, but we can’t do that. We are stuck with him.

We are actually a lot less stuck with Jimbo than we were with Fran. We can buy Jimbo out if we need to even though it would be painful. The Jimbo extension was a calculated risk and if it doesn't work out then Bjork should pay the price. That said I think it is way too early to panic about Jimbo, way too early.
