In the game thread there was reference to CML being retained if we beat Tech next week.
Regardless of the outcome of the game, that ship has sailed. There is an active behind the scenes coaching search going on. It's not feelers or prep work. The process has started. You do not reverse gears on that kind of machine once it's in motion, even over a big rivalry victory.
Don't waste a moment thinking there's anything to save CML's job.
Also, he's gone. Firing him this week or the first half of next week is meaningless. Don't let your frustrations eclipse your common sense. He's gone after next week. That's enough.
Also, we almost surely are not going bowling with a 5-7 record. There aren't that many 5-7 spots available and Tech has one of those all but sewn up if we beat them next week. They travel well and there's a built in storyline/point of interest to sell on an otherwise meaningless bowl game you had to scrape the bottom of the barrel to fill. Of the handful of 5-7 bowls left over, there's nothing that would make us desirable to a bowl. We don't travel particularly well, we don't have a particularly strong football tradition, our coach is on the way out, we don't have marquee players.
