JUCO DE Larry Jefferson has also de-committed

[Luth4Cy]

Too bad. CPR really needed to be able to keep JUCO recruits and avoid attrition on the current roster to be successful next season.

I don't think Pollard has the balls to fire him mid-season

I'm not a JP lover, but I completely disagree with this. He's definitely got balls.

This is why Pollard needs to make a statement saying Rhoads is our guy through next year, or fire him now.

Exactly. Recruits want certainty about the coaching staff.

 

[Clonefan32]

Makes sense when people are talking about firing the coaching staff.

Yes, because coaches at opposing schools would have NEVER considered the fact CPR could be fired having won 5 games in two years without the message boards spurring that on. This has nothing to do with fans clamoring for him to be fired. This has to do with him producing the kind of results that gets someone fired.

Took Danny Mac down about the same point in the season, didn't he? Granted wasn't his hire..

 

[RustShack]

Lol just fire him now. Can't win games, can't keep recruits anymore. Stick a fork in it. It's a shame because we were set up to have a good year next year, but he's lost the team.

 

[Cyclonick182]

Time to take this season and staff out back and give them the old yeller treatment. I've seen enough.

 

[Clonefan32]

This. It's very un-Pollard like to remain quiet this long.

I think he knows CPR is coming back, and also knows that making any statements right now is throwing a match to gasoline. I imagine he thinks we can get to basketball, everyone will get all excited again, and we'll slide into football with fans excited about the stadium, overhyping our returning talent, and filling the stadium, at least early in the year.

Something is brewing behind the scenes most likely. Everyone that is saying CPR is staying next season I think is dead wrong!

Yep. He has kids

We were?

I think the most important thing about where you are going to play is knowing who the coach is. At least if I was a kid, I think that would matter the most, playing for a coach I felt comfortable with. If you don't know who it is going to be, you are not going to commit.

Winning is the most important thing, not getting embarrassed on an almost weekly basis is a close second in my book.

Not to mention that there is a very real chance of getting injured playing for a team this bad as we have all witnessed, you're putting your good health on the line when you go out on the field for this team.

I think it is too late.

 

[timappelgate]

This will be Mangino's team.

I like your train of thought. Let's just recruit FB players who really like to watch good basketball. Problem solved.

This will be Mangino's team.

I sure hope not.
