Accepting of mediocrity

One of the overlooked realities is that it's highly unlikely Seidel or the unaccountable BOT is going to let someone go who only has two more years to hit the magic number of 20. Even perennial Top 20 programs would be loathe to pull that trigger. Short of him slaughtering puppies for a halftime show, I don't see them acting other than "suggesting" 20 years is a good exit point...

You're not wrong. The "academic approach" would be to allow him to keep his title or "promote" him to another position. If the former, his decision authority is revoked and transferred to someone else. He's still ad in title only.

They have to do something. Waiting 2 years on him and PBJ will kill football.

To criticize him for admin-speak is like complaining that water is wet. People in that position make the noises they make and when they hit on good hires and good policies we all think they are geniuses. They aren't....even the ones at BSU.

We needed a better admin/coach back in the late '90's. Now it's too late to be anything but better in whatever conference we end up in. Doesn't seem like Burman can make that happen. Can a better guy?...I sure hope so but I have my doubts.

You have your belief.

UW has a people problem and administration accepts it.

And runs off anyone with the power and balls to bring it to light.

He can be reassigned and hit his 20 in a different office with a different title. If they wanted to do it, they could. I don't think he needs to hire another coach at UW.

He won't in the next two years. We're stuck with Sawvel and Wicks through his 20th.
