What's the new time given for a new coach?

For decades it seemed a coach would get an automatic 4-5.

That, I feel, is now 2 years.

I think you have a good indication of progress after 3 years.

Honestly depends on where you are at.

At Arkansas its still probably 4-5 @ Auburn its 2-3 depending on success.

We fired Chad Morris before he even finished his second season. I don’t think anyone here would think we should have given him more time. Well, except for Mizzou fans, that is.

2 years if you are terrible (Morris). 3-4 if you show a glimmer of hope (Muschamp, Butch), 5-6 if you have one really good year (Mullen). After that, you get one mulligan for a bad year here and there, but you cannot have two in a row.

Depends on how shitty your program is but I think in general some improvement should be seen by year 3 regardless of sport. This is how long it took Bruce to begin bringing auburn out of the cellar in basketball.

Infinite number as long as we go 8-4, have reasonable but sort of lame excuses for it, and promise that next year is our year.

It’s 3. It has been 3 for a while. 4 if the coach is charismatic. 5 if the school has low expectations. 2 is only if a coach is a raging incompetent at a school who considers themselves a competitor. This usually requires off the field humiliation of the school (legal or otherwise).

Think people look for progression which honestly after 2-3 years you should see improvement. If you don’t, year 4 probably isn’t going to be some magical season

Depends on his success/failure and the amount of his buyout.

Three years is fair, but still a bit short, IMO.

You gotta give coaches time to recruit and develop — I don’t think the CFB world has the patience for it though.

Which Auburn coach lasted only 2 years. If anything it’s the opposite, especially once they receive that retirement plan.
