Imagine the outcry now if Lick doesnt go

[DuffMan]

Seriously. You thought things were bad before this would be borderline appocolyptic. As geeked as soooooo many people are that Lick is leaving, the fallout of him staying might be to big to bring him back.

If the reports/rumors at this point are untrue, it's actually possible that they will have gained so much momentum that Barta can't put the toothpaste back into the tube (i used that just for Jon). We could actually be looking at the first ever firing caused by the internet....

If there wasn't any truth to it Barta would have smashed the rumors with a statement. The fact that he himself hasn't is pretty telling. As AD you protect him if he is your coach.

Hasn't there already been a thread on this today?

I've thought about this too. There is a reason why the view counts on these threads are getting so high. People care. The apathy is wearing off and fans are getting some life again. If Barta drops the hammer and brings Lick back after all of this there will be a revolt.

A revolt of what?

Gimme a break. If he doesn't fire Lick, everyone will ***** and moan and not go to games, which means things will pretty much stay the same.

PLEASE!!!! Like what only 5,000 fans at games instead of 6,000? Some people have no clue.

I have to agree with Ghost, but one difference may be they are giving the hot dogs away instead of charging $1 to maybe get 3,000 people there instead of 2,000.

I would describe it more as a funeral than as a revolt if this doesn't pan out...

No, there won't be. A certain segment of the posters here will be ****** because their dreams didn't come true. Nothing that has been talked about today has been credible or concrete in any sense of the word.

If none of this turns out to be true, and Lickliter is brought back next year, the people that are upset will have no one to blame but themselves.

Nice tact bud.

 

[djwoody98]

If he was going to be back don't you think the statement from the AD would mention his support of the coach and his staff?

No, we will have no one to blame but KCCJ, and their sources, for starting this crap if it is not true.

Isn't there a large white oak on campus that was once named, "The hanging tree?"

I would think so too. At best (from Lickliter's perspective), it means that it is undecided if Lick is back next year.

Is KCJJ what you would call a reputable news organization? Is this something that they do frequently?

Starting this crap. How do you just blame KCJJ. I was reading a thread called Lick Fired?? With about 15,000 views and 9 pages worth of comments about 3 to 4 hours prior to KCJJ jumping in the ring.
