Mid-season firing

Postby Mustangsabu » Fri Sep 07, 2007 12:52 pm

Before I say this I should point out that I am speaking from the perspective of someone who grew up in Ireland watching soccer (do I get kicked off this message board for using that word?)

If we lose tomorrow, I don't think firing Bennet is necessarily the way to go, though he would I think (though I like the guy) deserve it. However, I would suggest that firing PB might have one advantage. It would give a new coach more actual competitive games to test the squad before the off season and we might be better off next year.

Firing might be ok, but you aren't going to get a coach to come in now unless it is an assistant you are planning on hiring...

I think our new poster has a jones on to fire Bennett. If SMU loses today, there will be hell to pay on this board and Orsini will not be pleased. On the other hand if we right the ship and win 7 Bennett stays.
