Miami, Maryland, USC.....

Ours is a compound problem. We need to replace both and AD and HC. No decent HC will come with a lame duck AD.

I don't know about that. A football coach is more powerful than an AD, except for a crappy coach. If a coach is doing fine, knowing a new AD is around the corner will not scare them.

True, but If a coach has a choice between 2 otherwise comparable jobs, he will choose:
A - the job with the stable AD situation.
B - the job with the AD who is a "football guy"

We have neither A or B at the moment.

All those school's football budgets are double ours. Additionally, USC's coach was embarrassing the university.

And Coach Hat's record isn't embarrassing!?!

If Hazell is the HC in 2016, I bet you see the lowest number of season tix sold ever.

I'd be in favor of keeping DH if he were showing improvement somewhere, anywhere. But, his recruiting hasn't improved, the on field performance hasn't improved, the team still does all the things poorly coached teams do (penalties, turnovers, mental lapses.). I don't see a single area where there's been improvement in 3 years.

You don't see improvement because there is none!
