Nebraska fires AD
I know it's not OM but IMO it shows how a program SERIOUS about winning holds employees accountable for failure. We could learn if WE were serious about winning.....but we're happy to just go politic and visit in the grove....

Re: Nebraska fires AD
Unfortunately for the Ole Miss fans, the administration and the fans are not really serious about winning. Look at most big programs in the SEC like Alabama, Auburn, Tennessee, Florida, and LSU. If things are not good, then there is a changing of the guard. At Ole Miss everyone is too worried about their image, partying in the Grove, and socializing. It appears that winning takes a back seat. No wonder Ole Miss has been so mediocre for decades. At this rate their will be many more decades before Ole Miss is serious about winning. Just look at little to the East at Alabama and you will see how a real program is run.

I guess that immediately made Mike Reilly a lame duck, a lame duck who just got a contract extension.

After everything I've been hearing, I'm not so sure Bjork is the problem. I can safely say Vitter should go before Bjork.

Well....I feel pretty confident in saying that I doubt either of them have anything to worry about..... We don't hold people accountable....there are zero repercussions for failure..... We'll just continue to get the same results....and lil Ole Miss will continue to be happy with the grove and the party......
Winning is just icing on the proverbial cake...as long as we have a winning record, guaranteed by playing enough D2 schools, all is well.....There's a reason we can't get to Atlanta.....but we continue to bury our heads in the sand and refuse to do what is necessary to change that mindset..... Rinse and repeat....

Re: Nebraska fires AD
Nebraska firing their AD is further proof their failure to adapt to change. Their fanbase still thinks they are the juggernaut and crime riddled program of the 90's and it's been almost 20 years since they played meaningful football. I don't think it signals anything remotely close to "taking charge" or "holding employees accountable". I think it speaks loudly to their inability to accept where they are and make the right moves to change it. If you ask their fans they are an Osborne away from being NC contenders again which is both laughable and sad.

Could be....but at least their fans are pushing back....instead of accepting mediocrity without so much as a whimper. We, on the other hand.................................fill in the blank

Re: Nebraska fires AD
Not firing Womack after 2015, not firing Luke after 2014 or 2015 or 2016 are just some recent examples of our lack of accountability that has cost us wins.

Re: Nebraska fires AD
Nebraska has been irrelevant for 20 years. Their moves are not unlike ours. None have worked. Over that period of time they have had about as many head coaches as we have as well. What does that say to their ability to enforce or demand change? I would say they are well adapted to mediocrity and I don’t see that changing any time soon. Yet they will likely make another move in the offseason. Changing just to change is actually worse than trying to figure out what isn’t working with what you got.

Re: Nebraska fires AD
I agree on Freeze not making staff changes when they were long needed. Just another example of him being more interested in things off the field than on.
