Worst game ever

[SwirlinLingerie]

You have to scrutinize his every move in the weeks before and months after you fire Brian. I firmly believe the man will try to burn the organization down. There is a bunch of vague and ambiguous shit in his cause definition so it wouldn't be a slam dunk that he'd win it. You owe him fifty, you tell him you'll pay him two years salary and a third for his lawyer to go away. He'll take it. The offense is simultaneously easily defended and indefensible right now. They really need to make a contingency plan with Woods right now because I believe there is a nonzero Kirk is gone by New Year's. He also has looked a bit jaundiced, I seriously don't want the guy to go out with an inferno burning and that is where the ship is heading right now, even if we win out.

Say what you will about Steve Alford, but when Sam was losing heat on his fastball Steve-o got him extricated from the program ASAP. And again, I think Brian has shown flashes of brilliance as an X and O guy, but he is pathologically incapable of being a P5 coordinator at this juncture in his career. He needs a rehab stint without nepotism in the background. I honestly think he could be a very solid NFL coordinator if he doesn't have to worry about personnel. Personnel is what will do him in at Iowa. I feel like Obiewon Kenobi right now. As the scoreboard turned off at that Ohio game in 2017 I thought this young man was the chosen one. I looked past the 66 yard effort the next week. I can't look past this anymore.

In all seriousness if Brian went to Bama or Georgia as line or TE coach I think he could work his back into the limelight, but he needs to get his paws off of this offense ASAP.

Won't they only owe him more like 40 after this season? (6 years at $7M?)

Regardless, how do you think he'd try to burn the organization down? What would that look like?

I do think his reaction to Goetz firing his son would be a huge variable. I think he is a man of integrity who overall has been a great ambassador for the university and state.

That said, he's had nearly total control for years now. People in power don't like to give it up. And often react emotionally when a decision is made out of their control, because they haven't had to deal with that for years. Throw in the element of a family member being adversely impacted, and who knows what direction this takes.

He is also incredibly stubborn and loyal. Those can be good qualities, but I tend to think they'd work against him in the case of Brian being fired. I'd hope Kirk would be able to say this was a great marriage, a quarter century is an unbelievable tenure for a head coach, it has made me a fortune and produced only feelings of gratitude on the way out. But who knows.
