Sure thing....honestly, I hope you are right because that would mean there is some semblance of RTD...something he hasn't produced yet. NOT.EVEN.CLOSE.
All D1 football coaches are major assets - typically the highest paid on campus. All are expected to win.
Haslam may have to fire him to keep his job before all is said and done.
Hauck took UM from about 33 in poll ranking to top10 in years 2 and 3. Due to an injured qb, UM finished no. 14 last year. Also playoffs and playoff wins in years 2, 3 and 4. Not dominant, but returning.
Hauck is a major fundraiser for UM. The major donors like Hauck generally and personally and would not allowed Hauck to be fired.
No, all D1 coaches are not major assets for a university. Some are; many aren't. Their pay has nothing to do with it. The pay is set by the market and the school. Most are expected to win. Hauck is winning.
Haslam's job is not in jeopardy. No one, or virtually no one, with any influence at UM wants Hauck fired.
Hauck has said he doesn't want his contract extended this year. If he wanted it extended, it would be extended.
I can't imagine DeCuire's job is in jeopardy either. I don't follow his situation.
You really don't have a clue about Griz football, or even football much of the time.
