The state of our program and our record this season is bad enough, but now all of the speculation of what will happen with Dooley and the remainder of the season-- Hart is continuing to make us look like we don't have our Sh@# together, by being silent. I understand that wheels may be in motion on getting someone else and that we will probably have to wait until the end of the season. I also understand that for the sake of salvaging the remainder of the season with the team, Hart needs to tread smartly, but at this point, the guy has to say something....
Maybe it is taking longer than expected to get the paperwork togther to finalize things with Monday Night Football....

I personally don't think Hart has been hitting the channels to find a coach up to the Missouri loss. I think he thought 7 -5 would get Dooley another year and more time.

We will see how it turns out.

If he hadn't at least been considering firing Dooley well before Mizzou, then he shouldn't be in that position. It was obvious to most fans and should have been obvious to Hart not only after the Acron game but definately after the Troy game that a change was inevitable. So I think Hart is much more qualified than I. Therefore, I am confident that the wheels have been in motion for several weeks

Let's hope so.

His point was that the silence from Hart has gotten to be a real PR problem. Not that Dooley's on the hot seat.

And I agree with the OP, in fact I started a new thread about this not realizing that it was a duplicate of this one. Moderators please merge....

we are getting destroyed in recruiting

Oh No! Please tell me we aren't about to lose the kid we beat UAB for. I bet he goes back to them...........If we focus on the symptom (recruiting class) and not the problem (establishing a sound foundation with a proven coach) then we will hire the next Dooley and be having this conversation again in 3 years. Stop the fall and get us headed back up no matter how many days or weeks it takes to get us going that way.

I agree, slovog. However I didn't take the guy's comment to mean that we shouldn't fire Dooley b/c of recruiting. I think he was responding to the OP's point that the longer this goes on with nothing but silence from Hart, the longer our recruiting will suffer.

Dooley's uncertainty and the public meltdown of our fanbase is being used against us in recruiting. The quicker the announcement is made and a new coach is hired, the more time we have to dump the 2* Dooley recruits and go after the big fish.

Hart's trying to pay the mounting bills so finding a coach right now is not a priority...we have a coach
Do you think this is even close? Hope Not
