UL Coaching Contracts

[Turbine]

nobody is immune from 6-7 - everybody is now immune from much better absent fortuitous circumstances and very hard work - fortuitous circumstances much more so than hard work as un-fortuitous circumstances can wipe out the benefits from fortuitous circumstances AND hard work in one fail swoop . . . moral to the story - get realistic with expectations or choose to live in repeated misery . . .

That's the "career hire" mindset.

That's the "career hire" mindset.

I refuse to accept just going to a bowl game and losing the bowl game and having a losing season.
The expectation is to win SBC championships, have a shot at the CFP, and win bowl games along with having winning seasons year in and year out. Nothing less!

Appreciate this information being posted here. The only one that seems negligent or just careless on Dr. Maggard's part was his eagerness in offering the multi-year, long term extension to CMD after one winning season following two losing seasons. An athletic director must be more shrewd with our resources even in the best of times. One of the first questions from whomever becomes Dr. Maggard's new boss should be "Why did you do that?"

With that attitude, just settle for mediocrity. Yeah, thats real happiness manifested. You heard it Cajuns fans. Dial back your expectations and you'll be happy.

No thanks.

One hire couldn't skew it that much.

His tenure amounts to like a two year overall average boost.

Still impressive.

The problem is the university uses the same approach for coaches who don't produce.

The median is 17.
And if you drop the high and the low the average is still 21
