Two things can be true. There is a proper balance that must be hit between chaos and order for anything to progress. Chaos is not good, but chaos doesn’t only present opportunity for bad things to happen either. If the right people take the initiative then good things can come out of a chaotic situation. There’s nothing great about how this is all being handled, but that doesn’t mean we couldn’t still fall into a great coach when all is said and done.

unfortunately, while chaos is a horrible position to be in when you are having to swim around in it, chaos also usually means big $$$$$ for opportunistic others who recognize it and take advantage of it or in some cases even create it.

I get that hes an upgrade from Pruitt but I think we can do better.

I kind of agree. Herman would be fine but not sure it's the homerun some in here think. His football mind intrigues me but everything else about him seems kinda underwhelming.

I don't know what a true realistic HR hire looks like in our situation though. I'm convinced it's Freeze but... We may need a sure thing to at least get back to competing for the East. We might end up changing coaches again in a few years, but that risk is present no matter who we hire.

Does it really "look better" to hire a guy that just got fired over a guy that has a troubled past but has rehabilitated himself and currently winning at a smaller program?

Curious... who would you go after?

I don't see why most coaches would turn us down. We pay you to fail then give you more money to leave.

True, but I feel we have never PAID enough to get that special coach to succeed. We have been going cheap for way too long and that's usually a sure fire path to failure.

Just to clarify the crouch leaning info from Vq was regarding it would be likely if Pruitt left ?

not leaving under Pruitt ?

Stoops would have to turn down a huge offer.
