Bruce James - " Chad gets at least 4 years"
I doubt that anyone knows for certain what is going to happen. There are several games remaining and everything is pure speculation at this point.
However, if there is no significant improvement, I will be very surprised if he is retained.

I don't think he'll be retained even if we somehow beat WKU. O-fer in SEC play two years straight would set an all time worst record at Arkansas and just about break the record for all SEC teams. Right now Vandy is the only one in history with a worse streak.
Exceptions to the conventional rules HAVE to be made when there's historically bad results like that. There is no way an AD can defend it, and HY knows it would be his arse next in line.
He made the move on MA, who was above average but still not meeting his expectations. The fans and media hadn't spoiled on MA nearly as bad as Morris, so it's not like he was overly pressured into it from outside forces. He's already shown he has the guts to make the moves HE deems necessary for the program.
Morris isn't even HIS hire, so he's not in the position of worrying about his appearance of hiring the wrong candidate and admitting he made a mistake. He can clean his hands of the whole thing and walk away without any personal ramifications; in fact he'd be cheered.
When all of the above is considered it seems like a foregone conclusion to me. The argument to keep him seems much more difficult than the opposite.
