With the schedule next season he is probably going to have a losing record, 4-5 wins. If he starts next season on the seat then there is no realistic way he makes it past next year. If he ends the season with this win then the "management" at BC will look at next season as a clean slate. He might be able to wiggle his way to an extension if he wins this game and goes .500 next season.<br /><br />I am watching regardless of the coach, the record, the talent level or whether or not I think the season has been a success. <br /><br /> knuckleheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04805180161124683145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-75256770479342559432016-12-07T12:31:42.995-05:002016-12-07T12:31:42.995-05:00knuckle. win or lose, daz will brag about BC bein...knuckle. win or lose, daz will brag about BC being 'bowl eligible' 3 of 4 years and achieving that 'lofty' status once again in 2016. <br /><br />Win or lose, he is back next year..... but if Daz wins the bowl some (like you, at times) will view the season as a success...<br /><br />so, I do not see the game having any importance to anyone about anything.....mod34bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129365485893573618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-75181365699651682582016-12-07T12:20:21.333-05:002016-12-07T12:20:21.333-05:00The ultimate irony would be Dazzler gets to a bowl...The ultimate irony would be Dazzler gets to a bowl game, loses the Bowl game and gets removed as HC. I think this game is huge for Dazzler. It breaks the deadlock of this season - that many have discussed here - Loses Big to the non-academic school, Wins Big over the loser schools, Goes 50-50 against the Others. The Bowl game is another Other. If Dazzler wins then he has a winning record overall and a winning record against common opponent types.<br /><br />This is pass fail they way they do it in College Park. haha.<br /><br />If he loses there is no way the season can be characterized as a success regardless of the spin. A loss for Dazzler means he starts next season as the #1 coach on the soon to be replaced list. knuckleheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04805180161124683145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-39432434925216346482016-12-07T09:56:24.320-05:002016-12-07T09:56:24.320-05:00"Rhule's association with Temple means he...<i>"Rhule's association with Temple means he was never going to be a BC coach"</i><br /><br />agree with Knuckle... not buying this .....mod34bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129365485893573618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-78858426707727519802016-12-07T09:52:57.379-05:002016-12-07T09:52:57.379-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.mod34bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129365485893573618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-74538496015531250282016-12-07T09:52:11.425-05:002016-12-07T09:52:11.425-05:00say, BC did fire Daz - who would BC get this year...say, BC did fire Daz - who would BC get this year?<br /><br />Top 3 "wish" guys - Rhule, Brohm, Fleck<br /><br />I don't think BC could compete to get any of these guys.

Being in JERZ i get stuck watching them... and you know what? It is actually fun football. They have a tough defense and an offense that throws the ball downfield and has some creativity in the run game. I can tell you that I certainly enjoyed watching a temple game more than any BC game the past three years. <br /><br />2. The year after we lost to penn state in the pin stripe bowl, temple opened the season against penn state and BLEW THEM OUT in a stadium that was 90% penn state fans. <br /><br />3. Addazio's first year at temple they were in the MEAC and the second year they were in the big east. CLEARLY that had something to do with his record being very positive in year one, along with the fact he had Golden's recruits. the 9 wins shouldn't even be in the equation. <br /><br />4. Rhule's 10 win AAC seasons were in a conference that were nothing to laugh at. <br /><br />5. Temple improved dramatically under rhule, meanwhile addazio rode the wave and 'perceived' momentum that golden createdJERZeaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10765767282825088433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-16020426672306823902016-12-07T01:15:01.319-05:002016-12-07T01:15:01.319-05:00Over the top crap from select faculty.

Rather than showing that it's in a bubble, Baylor conducted a legitimate hiring process and got themselves a good football coach. Maybe BC can learn from them when it's time to hire Daz's replacement. And by the way, Baylor Is sadly above BC in football.
