[QUOTE="froginmn, post: 3071844, member: 67577"] And i think that's fine; I'm not sure that my expectations are higher or lower because yours aren't quantifiable. At Minnesota for instance, I've seen head coaches with huge expectations who have come in to be very disappointing in their results.I don't think that's a good thing. I think we're all frustrated with the recent results. It's a question of how patient to be, what changes Gary makes would satisfy each of us (some say none, get rid of him now), and what comes from a change. I think the stability of having Gary for so many years has worked very well compared to the repeated changes at UT. I think you need to ask yourself what are the risks and benefits of changing coaches. We know that GP has the ability to get us to the pinnacle; we differ on whether he has lost it and can't get back versus he's had a combination of circumstances (largely bad results with QB recruiting IMO, coupled with a bad run of injuries). Can he rebound from that? If we make a change, what are the odds that we get another home run hire? We could get a Matt Wells, who seemed like a can't miss but has missed so far. We could get a Matt Rhule, who had success but left quickly. We could get a coach who falls flat on his face. Or we could get a coach who does well and stays. I'm frustrated, but not so frustrated by some 500 seasons mixed in with 11 win seasons that I'm ready to roll the dice just yet. And I'm appreciative enough of the crazy good experiences we've had to give Gary more slack than others. [/QUOTE]
