We had assembled the best portfolio of coaches in school history. Fortunately, two of the best--Walz and McDonnell--are still on board for how long we don't know.
3 of those positions were must fires (Rick and Bobby and the Women’s LAX coach) so you’re kinda cherry picking the numbers. Plus many were unhappy with the softball coach as well.
"Cherry picking?"
You’re trying to build a narrative that good coaches don’t want to work with Tyra. That is just factually untrue. It is clear over the last 2 years that Bobby Petrino was only an offensive coordinator. He was fired because he could not meet the standards of our program. Rick was fired for failure to monitor his assistants and possibly taking part in a pay for play violation along with the stripper issue. The women’s LAX coach was fired because she lost the team and possibly abused them if I remember correctly. The softball program was dead in the water. Your financial numbers usually have merit. I’m just gonna have to throw a bull crap flag on this one.
I'm not building any narrative--the numbers speak for themselves.
Losing coaches and firing coaches that deserve to be fired are not the same thing. That’s all I’m trying to say. The numbers don’t mean anything when what you’re trying to use them for is a farse.
It's a "farse" because that how you wanna view them. It's just your opinion. The numbers say what they say...
The numbers don’t say anything on their own. They require interpretation. You’ve chosen to interpret them in a particular way which supports your disdain for anything not Tom Jurich. You need to look deeper.
Not necessarily... For a guy with a great track record at hiring coaches, it involves less risk. OTOH we have "Vince".
I wish people would quit talking about the last guy. I like talking about the new guy...
That's the same argument every time more data enter the picture leading to the same conclusion. It's not the same horse, it's the same glue...
People already have and you don't like their interpretation.
That's rationalizing data points, I'd argue, just to fit a "Vince" narrative. Maybe you don't understand data analysis. They are what they are. They're not ALL outliers.
Explain to me how you bias raw data? I took the time to research the data, did you?...
I'll be glad to sanitize the OP of "Jurich". Will that change the data? Let me know how you want it presented. My guess is you simply don't want it presented. I understand that...
100% agree with this statement. I didn't agree with anything else you posted...
That's rationalizing data points, I'd argue, just to fit a "Vince" narrative. Maybe you don't understand data analysis. They are what they are. They're not ALL outliers.
You bring up Jurich's arrival...same circumstances. He was dealing with a group of coaches that he didn't hire or knew. Some were performing well and others poorly. What were his metrics the first few years? He replaced six coaches in six years. "Vince" has replaced that many in his FIRST year.
And Jurich inherited coaches that Bill Olsen hired. All Olsen cared about was banking money from basketball, which he did admirably. No one questions that. But he didn't set up his successor with great coaches.
The other element that undermines data rationalization was a key concern many had about "Vince" in this role...retaining our portfolio of coaches. That was, in fact, theorized as an eventual problem. And what's happened? He's losing them.
Pretty simple actually. You gave raw data like there were zero factors except who the AD was. When in actuality there were factors to consider. Tyra had to hire a basketball coach. This was brought on by demise of the last regime. He had to hire a football coach, with an unreasonable contract, again, somewhat due to the last regime. I can go on but you have your agenda, as weak as it is, and what I say will not change anything for you.
It's always possible to rationalize data beyond simple outliers. It's also NOT what statisticians and people trained in handling data do. How do I know?... I worked alongside them for many years.
Not nearly as many. Jurich was running pretty close to a one-hire-annually clip. He started that way and ended that way...
Thanks for exemplifying data rationalization again.
