Agree on making it known they are gone after Iowa game. Everyone knows they are gone anyway.

It is a terrible idea to announce early. The staff is still going to tell kids they will be around...meaning kids are going to miss out on recruiting visits to other schools. Frost is announced in early december and then he gets to re-recruit a bunch of already committed players instead of going after guys who have decommitted. If TO had announced the Callahan firing in November it would be likely that Suh would have transferred. That extra month MAY have given Bo enough time to convince him otherwise. Tennessee lost a bunch of guys who will commit to other schools, and the new coach has to get them to decommit again...Moos should have a presser that states he is still evaluating based on the final two games of the year. If we win then that will effect his evaluation. I don't understand why fans need blood now...an interim coach can't recruit or build the program.
But announcing now would make some feel better. Aren’t feelings important?
Riley has handled this disappointing season with class and professionalism. Let him finish the season, and then let everyone move on gracefully. An extra 11 days isn't going to matter - Moos knows who he wants to hire, and that person is likely still coaching and isn't going to make any decisions before then anyway.
I'm holding on to a glimmer of hope that Riley will take over play calling duties for what will likely be his last game of his career as a HC and just goes Bill Callahan 2007 vs KSU all over Iowa. Riley is probably too nice to hurt Langsdorf's feelings though.
