This is not going to be Sitake's decision to make. It will be Tom Holmoe's decision.
Sitake needs to take his next step as an HC. Its something Bronco learned and something KWhitt learned. KWhitt mastered it with the OC. A new OC every year for a long time. If Sitake will call KWhitt I'm sure KWhitt will tell him the need to cut a many loose to better the program.
But Tom will not be able to raise funds if we are getting blown up in the Big 12. Sitake won't get recruits if we are getting blown up in the Big 12.
