    Urban was hired in November but Luke Fickell finished the season and the bowl.

    Seems like keeping him around will kill us in recruiting.

    I think someone else coaches the remainder of the season.

    The players want him gone. Fans want him gone. He's a negative to recruiting at this point. I'm pretty sure he wants to be gone, too. Make it end.

    Those games outside of Bama are toss-ups, IMO. How many times you gonna flip a coin and hit heads every time? Possible. Highly unlikely.

    Good catch... And potentially good timing... Where's Steve Taneyhill when you really need him?

    BUT would they run the risk of him possibly winning the SC game?

    Could see that but saddling an interim with Bama in 5 or 6 days would not be moral. I'd think they would let Jones take that lap.

    IMO you have to have made your mind up that it doesn't matter. And losing to Bama by 50 would be the cherry.

    Just a guess tho.

    I question the loyalty of anyone still staunchly behind Butch. There's no way they can think he is going to suddenly turn this around.

    This imho, is why you do it now. The interim would have 3 weeks to change things.

    I'm not sure that beating SC changes a thing. Not with the East being out of reach and a Bama beating coming.

    Timing looks weird if he beats SC and gets fired after Bama. Any win is going to bring some people back on board.

    I don't see any reason to not go ahead and announce the firing going into this bye week. Couldn't possibly be a better time.
