Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me
would you hire him as women's basketball coach?
Nope. The second time around is almost always a disappointment. And he’s flirting with a scandal on his staff.
I don’t want to spend $2 million plus on a womens basketball coach that left Mississippi State already.
Women’s basketball is a drain on our athletic department, even if they go undefeated and win the whole thing. It doesn’t matter whether they are successful or not, the sport still makes no money. As far as Vic goes-17 that 17’er. He’s a low-life, floor-flushing snake and the only thing he deserves is a punch in the face. 17 that guy.
If money was no object - we would pay our assistants more in football.The money is no object to anyone in our league any more. Total non-issue. The biggest drawback to bringing him back is that it would take - best case - a few years for him to get things back rolling again like he had it. And it may never happen again like it did. We got very far for 2 years on that Vivians / McCowan combo, and its hard to catch lightning in a bottle like that twice. Before we know it, he could be 64 or 65 and still battling to get us into that Top 20 tier again.
That said, if he wanted to come back, it would be tough to go another direction. Would have to be a really strong commitment from him, though.
No it's not.Technically the baseball program is a financial drain too.
You must just be a fatalistic guy overall. You are treating this like you do NIL. How the hell is money no object?The money is no object to anyone in our league any more. Total non-issue.

Only if he came cheap. Spend the money on a sport that matters.would you hire him as women's basketball coach?
You deny the fact that if money in is greater than money out, it's not a financial drain?Yes, it is.
No it's not.
Probably because they are amortizing the stadium out, or something like that. But year over year, we make money. And if the time hasn't come yet that we've paid off the stadium, it's coming soon.State reports baseball revenue and expenses as exactly the same, to the dollar. So that tells you there are stupid accounting tricks at play. We don't make money on baseball.
We lost a half a million dollars just on the post season run last year.
Our overall athletics budget is in the black, but make no mistake, football subsidizes everything.

Because it's wrong.We don't make money on baseball. I don't know why this is controversial.
