    What is the point of the analysts if you don’t listen to them?

    Some suffer to a debilitating degree, not all of us.

    There is also the buyout that does create a SIGNIFICANT increase to the "value" of what we had. So, to be fair, at the time many saw it as a no win situation were the only realistic solution was to hope he figured it out.

    Ignoring or hand waving away problems is never the solution though. Pressure should have been applied much sooner to make changes when it was clear the "process" was shit.

    Billy the recruiting guru with only 2 good OL whom Mullen recruited. The lies that were told on this man's behalf just get exposed more and more.

    In our own state we are currently behind Miami, f$u, USF, and UCF. Should we throw a party that we are still ahead of fau and fiu? Thanks Billy! Out-freaking-standing place to be in year four of your tenure!

    Dang, I’m torn. He starts listening to his ast coaches, and the offense gets going and wins on Sat, thus saving his job. He’s still a bad coach, and will continue to lose 3-5 games a year. I would encourage Napier to stick to what’s got him here this far, so we can send him far away from here.

    How bad of a loss will it take to get Billy out of the building NOW. Texas has the #1 defense i believe. Do we break 200 total yards of offense?
    Manning looks like he might be getting comfortable.
    SIGH.. I can't believe i'm hoping my team gets run over..
    Does it take 35 point loss..40?

    If it looks like the team has completely quit on him. It is no longer and if but when Billy is gone.

    I don’t think he will get fired regardless of how bad we lose. The only reason they will fire them is if they start to do poorly financially because people stop buying tickets, merch, donating etc
