Has there ever been a coach that was fired that you couldn't make that argument about?You’re putting words in my mouth. My statement is that the program is middling - we aren’t improving year to year, and almost making the tournament this year will have no bearing on our chances of making the tournament next year. You and DV7 seem to be using the unlikelihood of Wake firing Forbes as a defense of his results, and trying to argue from that perspective.
In hindsight you could easily go back in time and see that neither Bzz nor Manning deserved their last season. Where do you think you are going to be after year 5 or 6 of Forbes not making the tournament? Still defending him for finishing .500 in the ACC? Hopefully not, but I guess we’ll see.
I think this is a difficult league and finishing .500 or better isn't as easy as it looks. It's a tough existence when a team can get a double bye and not be a tournament lock.
I think it would be foolish to eat a bunch of years of salary based on what we have seen so far. That calculus could change in a couple of seasons.
