Was this announced this late at night?
60-34 record as a college head coach. Current team in conference championship 2 out of 3 years (won championship game two years ago). They could do worse.BearFan33 said:
Unbelievable
What has he ever done?
I think firing before two years out is plain dumb ... except Arkansas wasn't just going 2-10. They were lifeless. They were getting blown out by Western Kentucky. It's one thing when you go 1-11 but by the middle of the season you see sparks against an OU team headed for the playoffs or you get within a play of OT against West Virginia. It's another to see your team regress toward the end of your second year.RiskyBizz Bear said:
And Florida State and Arky still searching....
I swear some of these teams are so trigger happy yet have no real plan in place. There is something to be said for consistency. Firing two and three years in - for a historically mediocre program still getting mediocre results - is a good way just to continue to spiral downward.
Lucke had hired a good staff around him and could've leveled out over another year or so.
Time will tell where they're at in another 2-3 years.... and I am fairly certain it will still be in the bottom half of the SEC west.
Along w Arky - regardless of who they hire.
