Ifs and Buts

Why have an interim Chancellor if they aren’t going to make any management decisions? If that is the case just leave seat vacant and let the lieutenants run their respective departments and save the money. Either you are the head person and you make the decisions when they need to be made or get out of the seat.
There will be two choices at the end of the season stay on same path or make a change. Both come with consequences.

It isn't that she can't make the decisions (she can and dose on a daily basis) , it is that most likely she (or any other interim) would not make that type of decision. Remember, she is literally having an on the job interview for the position of Chancellor at any university. Why do something that could be deemed irresponsible by so many potential employers? It just doesn't make sense in the real world, very little upside to it. It would be one thing if donations dried up (they haven't), or if ticket sales significantly lagged (they haven't) or if players were getting in a lot of legal trouble on a regular basis (they haven't) or if players were not going to class, not progressing with their degrees and not graduating (again, not happening) or even if we were really losing for multiple years (hasn't happened). In those cases, a decision to fire a coach and pay a ton of money is much easier to explain and easier for future employers to understand. But since none of those issues are happening, it is nearly impossible for me to believe that the interim would make a decision to fire a winning football coach that is owed a lot of money. Those type of things rarely happen in the real world.

But the anonymous guys on the message board say he should be fired...

And 17 different threads to discuss it. One was not enough

We should shut the board down with that logic.

Little common sense just sucks the fun right out of it.
