if we are going to get serious about football or not. We are getting left behind by damn near everyone and the only way out of this is to invest in this program. I know I’m preaching to the choir on here but we’ve got to make moves and make football a priority again. I fully understand that we will not get any help from the state or by adding any student fees, so we have to fundraise. McClain needs to come out with a campaign complete with renderings and a pathway to achieve the goal of improving facilities. I think a solid hire for football coach would go a long way in generating excitement toward this campaign. We need to do something we’ve never done and that’s make a splash hire, a common name in the college football world. Yeah we got to pay the man and yeah we’re broke. But if we are serious about this, it has to happen. Will Hall is not going to turn this around. Johns at Memphis won’t do it either. I think a Briles or Freeze would inject life into this program overnight. JM has to find a way. Get the coach and then fundraise your ass off for that indoor practice facility, it has to happen or this is over. I don’t think there’s much of a choice here, if we’re serious, it’s got to be 1 of those 2 guys. Bennett needs to get over himself and get out of the way and allow this to happen. It’s a steep uphill battle and it will take a lot of people but it has to happen if we’re ever going to be remotely relevant again.
