Ok, it’s been well over 12 hours. Time for a reality check. My biggest fear going in was that the team would beat two inferior teams and get hammered in the 3rd game. Shaka already expected an extension at the end of the season. Any extension would have prolonged the agony. Bottom line, ACU did us a HUGE favor not by beating us, but playing so horribly WHILE beating us.
Did they really shoot 30% and beat us? Yes. I think that is a record low % for a winning team in the tournament. If not a record, certainly in the bottom ten.
So even CDC can see the need for change. The question for me is simple.
Does Shaka have any understanding of his situation? His reputation can only get worse if he digs in his heels and tries to come back. He is looking at a 10-20ish record at Texas. Will have the worst attendance since kaiser bob.
Right now, he might be in the consideration for a job at some places, but his value will dive big-time if he comes back.
Bottom line. If he has any balls at all, he should start looking for a job somewhere else, maybe an assistant job, whatever, and make this transition easier on himself and his family. He has the power. If he gets terminated, it’s only because he was too hardheaded, foolish, and unaware of his surroundings to do the right thing. Btw, if that happens, he proves he’s not a “good dude” like many people here are saying. It would prove the opposite.
Coach, do the right thing!!
