Try firing a guy that just turned it around from last place to a host site and try selling that shit to a good new coach. I'm not a Lemonis fan, but that's where we are. Firing him last year was the better option and we pussed out.
We should at least try to extend him to four on paper. If he wants to reject a 4 or even 3 year extension because the buyout is too low after the first year or two, then that's his prerogative, but we should at least try for it. Even if the contract is basically worthless after a year or two because the buyout is nominal, it's better for the coach and the school for it to be in place.
