if freeze not hired because of administration and should we shutdown the program?

And? Even if it were to drop another 10k, do you honestly think that makes a difference? No. It would have to drop to like 40-50k on average for a season to illicit real change. Thats not gonna happen.

You obviously have no experience running a business. Losing $1.5 million in revenue while all of your other expenses are going up isn't something to laugh at even when you are taking in total revenue of $70m (football only). UT AD spends something like 96% of the money they take in so losses of this amount does have impact. I recall just a couple yrs ago the AD had to forgo their donation to the school just because they were paying a fired coach $3m a year. And that was when they were selling 70k season tickets. They're at about 58k now I believe. These aren't healthy financial numbers. When attendance hits 75-80k, there will be some pain and they're not far from that happening.

Why am I now getting a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach that this OC coaching search will become a HUGE clusters**k just like last year's HC search?

After viewing the Schiano contract either the chancellor or president,(?), has to approve the hire. I don't see it being a problem but I expected some concern over Freeze's past actions.

This was all done prior to his interview.

OP is a joke. Has to be. No one can be that dumb can they?

If a Vol trips and falls in the woods and no one's around to hear it...well, you figure it out.

Was going to ask you how you know this, but I read your other posts below. You don't.

I think its very possible that Pruitt decides, himself, that Freeze is not the best addition to his staff, for whatever reason.

That's a possibility but in at least one post I said there are several reasons why Freeze may not be the next OC. I'm safe in saying that the public at large feels he's the best choice. But then Freeze put a whoopin on Pruitt's defenses......amirite?

Pruitt's doing his job. Only person letting you down is yourself. The reality exist that Freeze doesn't want to coach here.

That could be the truth

Are you saying that Freeze may turn down over a million dollar job, because several years ago he beat our head coach when he was a DC at another school?

If you’re referring to the victories over Alabama, you’re not right. Kirby Smart was the DC under Saban at the time.

This bodes well for our upcoming games against Kirby Smart-coached Georgia with Freeze coordinating the offense.

Some think Shut down the program before going so low as to hire a freeze or others with such baggage

 

[LakeMaryFLVol]

I think we should.

Over 70%+ said they don't care or shut down the program if Freeze isn't hired. That's the clear majority.
