This is exactly what I thought

They let Troy put 59 on em and everybody was like, "Nah. He's aight."

They get drummed by the best team in the conference and dude doesn't even make it out of the locker room.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hud's support for Berry understandable. One of his best chance for a win. Bet he feels the same for the TXST coach. He won't lose a second of thought if the USA coach gets the axe.

Does the timing of the firing make anyone else think it may have been an emotional reaction? I know Berry has had a tough time, but it isn't like ULM is throwing resources at him. I wonder who they think they can get to take that gig. Are they going to pull up some coach from high school? Are they talking to the coach from Evangel?

How does a program get to a state where they are going to make a stupid emotional decision? (I'm looking at you, LSU.)

Wouldn't it be hilarious if they hired Coach Cook, and he came down to Lafayette and kicked our sss?

Mid-season firings normally do not accomplish anything. It was inevitable that Berry was done, but what good did they do by firing him before the season ended? Is this some kind of revenge thing for the benefit of the fans?

They could have went about the search for his replacement quietly and fired him the day after the season ended, but that would have required class.

Nope. Not funny.

I find it interesting two weeks before he was to take the team to Hawaii. The university had to already pay for his plane ticket and since they are non transferable, if I was him I would get on the plane and go to Hawaii for a vacation. I am sure he or the university bought his wife a ticket as well. The man did wonders for this program with nothing to work it, at least give him a trip to Hawaii.

If the players quit on him, it was time for him to go. A scandal or losing your locker room are 2 reasons to me, to fire mid season.
