They have started winning.”
ummm yeah. with a different coach. do we dont know if they would have with him or not. i need to wait a bit to read the whole story tho. :rolleye33:
yeah, it may have been harder but the fans wouldn't be going to games either. and i think brady being fired had a lot more to do with other things besides W-L's but starting 0-5 in the SEC was enough ammo to make it justifiable on the surface. no matter what opposing coaches say, this was a much needed change for LSU.
Brady and Odom are full of chit. They are just compadres, because Brady is Odom's hand-picked guy to replace him at USC from what I hear. No Big Dance = No more job for Brady, no matter what kind of run the team was about to go on.
it was all timing... they wanted: 1. 1-2 months extra to scope the field out. 2. they wanted butch to get a trial run.
I think Brady's firing was a cumlative affect. Players leaving the program, always a small roster, along with the two losing seasons.
