The key piece of your post here is “not a season ticket holder.” A team not quitting is not grounds for someone keeping their job. The 12 year resume speaks for itself. If Maggard retains Marlin, it is a just middle finger to the few of us who still buy tickets to this.
I’m a season ticket holder as well. And while I think it’s time we go in a new direction, I think it’s unfair to say it would be a middle finger to us. After all that Dr. Maggard has done for our program as a whole, I would like to believe he would have strategic reasoning for retaining Marlin.
"25 k for championships." ....... Never had to worry about paying that money. LOL
Its already been discussed on an earlier thread, wait until after April 1st to make a change and the buyout drops. Ideally, CBM will announce his retirement in a couple weeks and everyone can give him a pat on the back.
I’m not sure what reason could be given.
But initial thoughts are our on our athletic programs p&l. What did the new soccer hire cost us? Football staff that is a small army? Could be a plethora of financial impacts, Bc the next coach and staff will cost more than where we’re at now.
So we can’t take care of one our most important programs because the soccer coach left? We went from paying Billy $2 million to $700k to MD and got a buyout and the assistant pool didn’t change. We already pay top dollar in the Sun Belt for basketball. Next excuse please.
This is incorrect and exactly for the reason you tried to use to support your statement. Football has been winning at the highest level EVER and we struggled with attendance. It's not a basketball thing. Did you see how many people attended the top 28? People do care about basketball but we've been in the same rut for years. People don't want to be a part of a stagnant program.
