Has coach been fired yet?

Post #85 » by **Gremz** » Mon Jan 24, 2011 3:23 am

No? How about now?

How about somebody leaves a "Coaching For Dummies" book laying in the middle of the Denver airport, JOB runs and chases after it, everybody else boards the plane, and we take off back to Indy without him? Sound good?

I think Tyler Hansbrough is pretty good. Pretty good...

Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty good.

Why so few minutes for Granger and Collison? The game seemed close enough, and Collison seems like he would be well suited for a game with a pace like this.

They both had bad games.

Granger sprained his ankle too.

i dont get it...no other team would still keep a **** coach around this long who has sucked as bad as job...they would not finish out their contract..they would be gone...idc how much money we dont have to fire job and pay someone else and job...we are losing money by being a suck ass team in lue of a suck ass coach

I want to see Tyler get 30+ minutes every game just to see how much of his 20/9 average when he gets 25+ minutes is real.

I would coach for free. I got too much free time the way it is.

It's not all JOB's fault. Boomer has to take some of the heat too. Cat's been well Un-Motivational for weeks now.

not particularly...im just saying tho...they are losing money by keeping job, bcuz the team sucks...and people arent coming to the game..if they got a new coach in and started winning by chance, attendance numbers would rise, offsetting the cost of paying two coaches...i know it wouldnt make up the cost completely...but at least this season wouldnt be a wash

They will lose money either way and getting a new coach would not guarantee the team make the playoffs. Even if they did, it's not a very significant amount of money they would get to host an extra two games.

In a basketball sense, it makes perfect sense to fire him now and hire a new coach. However, it just doesn't make any business sense.
