I could care less about the black eye or hair lip or concern for how hard the NCAA would get if we hired someone that has not received NCAA sainthood. I want to win football games in bunches and sick and tired of hearing about the DP that happened 20 years ago. I want to play by the same rules as every other D1 program out there and if we decide that we may need to wander into some grey areas to do it count me in.

I'm all for slime as well, but Rich Neushsiel is a bad coach.

Stupid comment. You don't take your team to 4 bowl games in 4 years because of bad coaching.
It's a crappy job but someone's gotta do it.

coaching relates to the on field performance, not off the field issues. he may not be a good team manager (i.e. teach the kids how to handle themselves outside of the game, handle himself away from the field) but his record indicates he was pretty good.
Sports, and all that implies.

Neuheisel has proven he is a great x's and o's guy. However, either he can't recruit or Ty Willingham can't coach. Otherwise, how do you explain Washington's abysmal record since he left?

we need a head coach who can run a program and Neuhisel has failed at that in both his jobs

Could he leave this program in worse shape? I doubt it.
