I would think that would be the case but that interjects logic. In regards to athletics the BoT is against such. And many are placing some hope in the new AD. But he’s got to be approved by the BoT correct? So he’s guilty until proven innocent.
With Tanner they seemed to rubber stamp everything.

I'm so glad I can stay home, turn on the TV, then turn it off when I get disgusted. Saves me lots of aggravation, not to mention ticket money, gas money, parking money and food/drink money.

Firing Franklin was a mistake. Especially since it doesnt look like they had their replacement lined up. Firing him without that is running from a problem. Instead, they should be running towards a solution. What good does it do to fire a guy if you don't have better results (or at least a significant chance of better results) already lined up?

Of course, all this is moot if they have their guy at the end of the season.

Great post. If fans stop going to the games, that will send a message.

If you have to go, please take a paper bag to cover your face. That might send a message too. The better route is to stay home with your ticket. If not, get used to mediocre results under nepo baby Beamer.
I stopped going after Brad Scotts last win. Very little has changed. I don't think anything changes in Columbia until there is a dollar value placed on wins for salaries, NIL, etc.

It's possible they have their guy, but it wont be public knowledge till later. Maybe.

Other than that scenario, I agree.
