No, it's 10k or nothing. If this is going to take 5 years I want it to be worth my while.
I haven't seen a good portion of posters say they'd rather lose in the first or second rounds if it means being rid of Terry. I've seen one, and I think he's an idiot.
The escrow is as much for your protection as mine. But 5 years is a long time. If we're doing this, let's make sure the funds are there.
I have no idea what "our standard" is. Why am I suddenly speaking for anyone other than me? My opinion of Terry was formed a long time ago while he was an assistant under Barnes. Nothing he did after he left changed my mind. This season doesn't change my mind. I've liked what I've seen the last few games, but that doesn't say anything about his ability to run a program. I know Gerry is saying none of the assistants are going to leave, but they haven't had Beard make an appeal to them, yet, and they haven't had tensions in the staff, yet.
I've already said what my parameter is. He just needs to be able to keep the job. Do well enough to stay as the head coach at Texas and he's done enough to be considered a success as far as I'm concerned. That seems pretty cut and dried to me. But again, I'm not trying to speak for anyone else, and I'm certainly not trying to pretend my "standard" should be anyone else's.
