I highly doubt all these hard core big $ donors will still be supporting him if the team goes another 1-2 years without making a regional. Now, do not get me wrong there will be some regardless that will still support the coach regardless of the record because of personal reasons!
Let's hope it turns around and at least make a regional next year with all these highly rated JUCO's coming in! Because based on your post, the Admin, AD, and fans have no choice!
On the surface, change for change sake, is dumb.
If you truly believe that climbing out of the valley is impossible, then it might be prudent.
If you truly think a hole is being dug and the future is below .500 then change might be smart.
But just "wanting to see a change" is dumb.
Who is wanting to make a changes just to make a change? Most taking about it is because of the what is going with the program and I am sure you can even see it!
Also, what is the big difference of having record a few games under 500 or some over. It is about at least making a regional.
Seems it went from making a regional to now being over 500 as acceptable.
If we are being honest, and a coach needs to be dismissed it ain’t Robe. It’s big fish.
It’s safe to say that all of us would want the same thing. And yes, I do believe that some people just tend to defend our coaches at all costs regardless of outcomes which can become dangerous.
With that being said, and I’ve said this before. Robe has earned a little more time to correct this. He has done it before, and we are undergoing our first year with a new hitting system and pitching changes. Now next year and the year after that, if we don’t start showing signs of improvement, then yes. There’s no question that there should be talks of changes because by then, you will start to sacrifice the betterment of the program with a 5-year drought. And Robe has said himself. This isn’t his program. He’s just there to manage it. And yes, I am saying this as a huge Robe fan. But at the same time, it’s about the program at the end of the day.
Again, we have seen Robe turn the program around before (see: 2012). Let’s give it some time to see if he can do it again.
Anyone see what Florida’s record is this year?
