Last Man Standing

Add your reasoning below.

Drake. Football program has proven to reload at coaching positions. AD easier to be rid of for perceived problamatic athletics.

I don't buy this "oh coach is mad bc he got punished....he's gonna walk" nonsense. Drake is old and Gene is on borrowed time already.

 

[Bucklion]

Smith is Dead Man Walking, and Drake will likely only finish his term. I think Urbs weathers it and survives.

For the record, their current contract expiration dates:

Gene, 2020
Drake, 2021
Urban, 2023

 

[Nigel Tufnel]

For the record, their current contract expiration dates:

Gene, 2020
Drake, 2021
Urban, 2023

And there you have it. The answer.

 

[Ryan36_1]

For the record, their current contract expiration dates:

Gene, 2020 62
Drake, 2021 68
Urban, 2023 54

Current ages added. Pulled Gene's off his 2011 bio so may be a year off.

 

[ORD_Buckeye]

Gene leaves at the end of the academic year.

Urban is a wildcard. He came off yesterday as a guy who was going to start putting feelers out right after this season.

If Drake goes early, it'll be his own choice due to this plus the wrestling shitstorm getting to him. If he chooses to stay, I think he'll stay long enough to kick off the next big campaign. That and cleaning up some of the mess in the med school will be his legacy.

He will get back with the team and his players and coach some games and get over it.

It’s like not having electricity- when it’s out you’re fucking pissed and going to write so many angry letters... and then the lights come back on and you immediately no longer give a shit.

Yeah, I think he likes winning too much. There aren't many places he could go where the situation could be better for W's. And if he is worried about this issue dogging him in recruiting, which is probably valid, that problem will follow him anywhere he goes. It might be slightly worse here, but that's just going to be a part of him for a while.

 

[Buckeye513]

Urban.

Where the fuck else is he going to go? Notre Dame?

 

[MD Buckeye]

Urban & it won't be close.

 

[gmen6981]

I say this with all due respect for Urban, but he can be such an arrogant ass sometimes (I like that about him) that I can see him outlasting the other two simply out of spite.

Urban, Drake, Gene....
