I have quite a few friends that follow different teams (we all grew up in different parts of the US) who complain about their coaches all the time. Would you like to see your coach fired? Here are a few coaches I've heard about lately:
Paul Johnson - Georgia Tech: Coming into this season, Johnson has averaged 8 wins a year for 7 seasons in Atlanta. It frustrates my buddies to no end when they play great ball against great teams, and then lose to teams that are lucky to be .500.
Al Golden - Miami: Coming into this season, Golden has average 7 wins a year for 4 seasons in South Beach. Miami just hasn't been able to get back to the "Swagger" of the late 80's and late 90's. One of my friends would love to see a change. (there was a "go fund me" that was taking donations to keep flying the "fire Golden sign over Miami games...I think he donated to it)
Charlie Strong - Texas: I don't know why anyone would want to get rid of a coach in his 2nd year (he went 6-7 last year, not bad for a first year coach), but I have a few Texas fans that would like to land a "bigger fish" in coaching.
Bret Bielema - Arkansas: He has 10 wins in 2 seasons, and has started this year 1-2. He should get more time to build his team, but I've heard a few people that would rather someone else come to town.
Frank Beamer - VaTech: The guy has had an AMAZING run in Blacksburg, but the past 3 seasons haven't lived up to what many VaTech fans have grown accustomed to. I've heard him compared to Joe Paterno in terms of "he's past his prime of coaching".
Any others out there that should be added to the list? Feel free to criticize some of the guys on this list. I think a few of them don't deserve to be let go.
