re: If barbee is fired who should be replacement

How many hires has Jay Jacobs made that were universally bad when the news broke?

Hint: It's more than zero and less than two.

Your point?

I was actually on the Barbee bandwagon, too, when he was hired. He was one of the "up-and-comers" I wanted to get the job. But I'm just a fan. Jay Jacobs does extensive research and gets paid a crapload of money to hire good coaches, and he's missed on Chizik, Barbee and Pawlowski. And then, with Alabama reeling off 3 of the last 4 national titles and our football program in desperate need of a proven winner, he goes out and hires Gus freakin' Malzahn.

Jay Jacobs is single-handedly running our athletics department in the ground, but like I've said before, Gogue deserves just as much blame for keeping this clown around.
