Wrong glass, Sir.

Shame the Rickster was ousted. He would fit right in with the collection of clowns that's coming together out there.

I believe because the administration finally realized that "Anybody, anytime, anywhere" meant exactly that ... Fresno St would go anywhere, anytime to pick up a paycheck and an ass beating from anyone.
Much like Charlie Weis, Pat Hill's greatest game was that one when he almost beat USC in 2005.
Fresno St under Pat Hill developed this mythic reputation as a potential giant killer, yet they never actually slayed any giants. A lot like Gonzaga basketball, IMHO.

And he had been there 15 years. What a dumb move by Fresno, unless he was doing something illegal or against NCAA rules we don't know about.

Bien. Bien chiludo.
I have a colleague who lives in Fresno (his mother absolutely loves all things Fresno State). Anyway... he said yesterday that a lot of people don't understand it except for the tangible drop in attendance. However, he said that some entity had changed the rules regarding tail-gating sites and things of the sort which, IHO, led to a LOT of people having no interest in attending the games. Take it FWIW, but it appears that even a great deal of people in Fresno realized their lot in life and are disappointed with the news.

Was surprised to see Pat Hill fired. He's been a consistent winner at Fresno State. Though he had a rough year.
"Fresno State fired Hill on Sunday after a 15-year tenure that included 11 winning seasons and 11 bowl appearances. He had an overall record of 112-80, and the Bulldogs won a share of the Western Athletic Conference title in 1999."

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Just sayin'... Pat Hill was only making around $650,000 at Fresno State. He has coached in Ohio before (Browns...OL/TE). He has to have connections for California recruiting. Besides having a cool mustache, he may make some college team a real good OC and/or OL coach.

I think a lot of people around the country lost interest in Fresno St athletics after Stacy Johnson-Klein was fired.muffler dragon;2059379; said:
