I think we need a football coach that can win without money


By that I mean they can't ask for the money first and wins second. Fu reminds me of the leaders in the business world that believe they have to build a team of VPs akin to a bank when he works at a startup. First and foremost, he's not savvy nor has he demonstrated he can flat out coach. Aside from FSU and WVU, I can't think of where he snuck out a win despite considerable odds. Second, he's a whiner and excuse maker. Third, he simply hasn't produced results in 6 years as the CEO of our football program. That's a lifetime in the college football world. Fu believes in a slow, incremental climb to dominance once you get all the pieces in place and it's pure fantasy. Success is not linear. Change is constant. He struggles mightily with that. Or perhaps he doesn't and just brilliantly uses it as an excuse. Dude is getting paid.

We need a Mike Young style football coach that you find at programs like App St. Giant killers that play with their hair on fire, embrace the fans, and find ways to win.
