Well, after the way this has all gone down, I fully expect Love to lose her job or "resign" fairly soon.

Yeah, not sure what the hell ASU was doing on this firing and hiring. Fire Erikson and get a bad hire to follow it up. Not that college football is a huge deal out here, but damn.

Please god let her be fired. Her voice during the press conference even made me cringe.

Todd Graham apparently reached out to ASU, not the other way around.


And he was the one who asked the AD to talk to ASU, not ASU contacting the AD.

When the AD declined, Graham resigned a few hours later.

It's one thing to criticize the way Graham left. He did it in a shitty way...

But it's another thing to say this is a bad hire.

The guy has won everywhere he's been..whether its coaching high school ball in Oklahoma and Texas or coaching at Rice, Tulsa, Pitt or ASU. Granted, his season at Pitt didn't turn out the way he wanted it to, but he is a very good coach.

You look at solely at the records. However, I am taking into consideration what he was left with at those stops.

At Rice, fricking Ken Hatfield left him with holdovers from a 1-10 team. 1 and fricking 10.

At Pitt, he was left with a team that had been through three coaches in like two months. They were 7-5, however, the previous year. But I do know their defense was much improved.

I think he's a solid coach. He did great things in Tulsa. He did great things at my alma mater, Allen High School while I was there. Did I play for him? No. Do I know the man? No.

But I think he is a good coach. He will do well at ASU.
