The coaches are paid to put a team on the field that can compete and promote the school. They are not volunteers that are doing this out of the kindness of their hearts, they are paid. The way this team was performing a coaching change had to be made, however, I do feel bad that people had to get fired.
I purchase season tickets and a champions club membership. I view these two purchases as an investment that will put a team on the field that is competitive, fun to watch, and will hopefully lead to the players not only receiving a great education from a wonderful school, but also make great memories that will last a lifetime. The way I saw it my investment was not worth my money and a smart investor will change up his game plan if an investment is not paying off. Firing the coaches is the change up we needed.
Losing sucks, plain and simple. Do you think the players are having fun out there? They chose to come to this university to play football, most of them moving far away from family and friends. Playing on a losing team that is consistently being blown out causes fights in locker rooms and overall disappointment.
College is supposed to be one of the best times in your life and I can guarantee these kids are having a horrible college experience.
