"Well then, I guess there's only one thing left to do [...] Win the whole ******* thing."
-Jake Taylor, Major League, 1989
With all the talk, rumors, and speculation about GMac's (pending?) firing, I was wondering about something today during my run. If he and the team truly "know it's over" at the end of the season, there is a possibility (albeit improbable) that the team gets a "Win one for the Gipper" attitude and goes on a hot streak (much like what happened with DMac against Mizzou in 2006). As a result, there could be an (even bigger) argument among the fans...was it a fluke or did the team really turn a corner?
So, my question to you, CycloneFanatics, is a hypothetical one:
Put aside speculation, and let's assume that at this moment, Greg McDermott will indeed be terminated at the end of the season. With two (guaranteed) games to go, what, in your opinion, would the MBB team have to do from this point forward to save GMac's job?
Poll will be posted momentarily. Each option builds on the last, and yes, I realize most (all?) of these are unrealistic.
