    I am faced with that issue also; 2 p or not 2 p?

    Most of the time it's yes.

    At my age, it's definitely "Yes," especially several times a night.

    With Marshall, I suspect it's more like a bumpersticker I saw:

    MY KARMA JUST BACKED OVER
    YOUR DOGMA

    Well, ULMost added 72 players last year, so they can fill the spots in numbers.

    I get the impression these boys & girls are a bit out of touch with reality. It's like they're double-dog daring the gods of football to strike them down.
    Or…stay with me now, they aren’t willing to get into an arms race when it comes to coaching salary. Marshall is a pretty big G5 brand and they feel like they can get a good coach and keep winning every 5 years.

    It could be a very good philosophy to follow, risky though.

    "Risky" I'd say dangerous. Better yet, on a "risk scale" they're off the chart.

    Wow. He was coach of the year and division champ his last year, also since he was a "local" his whole life, seems that woyld have added value.

    Although with those being CUSA accomplishments, maybe they saw he was not sunbelt material and wouldnt be able to Rise Together

    Seems they gave huff the exact same, (as doc's high end) except the bonus potential was way higher.... and the first raise/ext discussions seems to be at that same 4 year mark

    Not to make light of what happened to Marshall in the past, but no program can afford a self induced immediate single season crash and burn like what just happened.

    Also, no program can afford a long, slow artificially sustained ember burn out like what happened to UL basketball.

    Administrations need to be cognizant on both ends of the spectrum.
