But if those changes don’t lead to good results what does it matter?

A 63 finish last year was the worst finish in 15 years (apart from the worst season in half a century the yr prior)

Football has more room for improvement in basketball. It’s similar to complaining about an 8-9 win Bronco season but then feeling encouraged by .500 ball.

I’ve seen changes with the football program, most of them not for the better.

Completely agreed, but you also have to remember Rose has been at this for

Don’t get me wrong — I think there need to be changes in the basketball program.

The only arguments I find somewhat convincing are around the staff changes

I don’t disagree with any of that. All I’m saying is that it seems too early to

If that’s how you want to explain away .500 football over the last three seasons

Sitake’s job is tougher than Rose’s for sure. I’m guessing that is reflected in

I think this year will be a pretty telling year for sitake. He has good home

He should be sweating with anything less than eight regular-season wins, or

no because they seem more willing to make changes.

Fire detmer and hire Grimes. They easily could’ve kept him on for another year.
