What is dumb is your argument, my young and naive friend. I assume you are young as with the sense you are demonstrating you will never attain an age of any measure, so treasure the moments you have. They will be fleeting.

By your argument, you would never change any coach as there is risk you could do worse. If you are 1 - 11, be careful, you could be 0 - 12. Hide in the corner and hope that all is well.

It is all about what the goals are for the program. Apparently, you are completely satisfied with 9 - 10 and I would assume 6 - 6, 7 - 5 and 8 - 4 and being in the "hunt" rather than winning the east and NC. And that is fine if that is what you want. I have adjusted my expectations to that level as long as Richt is coach and after the Vandy game I feel confident my adjusted expectation will be met somewhere in that range.

To expand on your Florida example, they took a risk on Muschamp. Didn't work. They also took a chance on a guy that had one head coaching job previously and a guy that had never been a head coach at a major program. I believe they were Spurrier and Myer. That worked out OK.

According to your logic. Give'em hell Pell would still be coaching Florida.
