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.

Hold on, you're mad at him for missing on what were good hires (except for Chizik)? You don't know how they were going to turn out, and neither did Jacobs.
And you don't know how Malzahn will turn out.
My point is that he hasn't made bad hires, just ones that were praised at the beginning but didn't work out in the end. So why do you think Jacobs will hire a terrible coach if Barbee is gone?
