Maybe when Harsin was hired but definitely not when Freeze was

When Freeze is shown the door, we need to pull out all stops and go hard for Clark Lea. Damn good coach. Get him the funds to hire some good recruiters/position coaches.

Vegetables has sucked at Chokelahoma, so I don’t care either way. But people need to realize that if/when Freeze gets fired, only Rhett Lashley, Josh Aldridge and Charles Kelly will be interviewed. Or they go full retard and promote Durkin.

You need to shut your little whore mouth.

I think some coaching changes are coming this week, Kent Austin and Thornton, not 100% sure as things change, but it wouldn't shock me if they were both gone this week.
Posted on 9/30/25 at 10:49 pm to smuphy72
Won’t change a damn thing.
Posted on 9/30/25 at 11:05 pm to bawbarn
Nope. Not without some great replacement coming and I don’t see that anywhere on the staff.

Can we just say firing Malzhan was a mistake and bring him back. Arky is doing it

F that! Firing GusShortBus wasn’t a mistake. The only mistake was not firing him after 2015.

Gus' worst year was better than any season Harsin or Freeze have had or will have through this year.
Posted on 10/1/25 at 8:19 am to FlyDownTheField
And yet still got his arse beat constantly by our top 3 rivals

I am fully on-board with any firing of O staff. Just 2 doesn't go near far enough though.
Posted on 10/1/25 at 9:00 am to AUIH1
It isn't the O staff. It's the dimwit running the O. He is a one trick pony that refuses to adapt as the game goes along. Either it works or it doesn't. We have seen how often it has worked.
He will lose doing it his way. I respect his conviction. I would rather respect it at a different school.
