In reality, at the moment Hauck was hired the second time this was never going to end well. He was a good coach, not great but good. However he was a petulent, narcisistic bully who had to rule the roost. He had to have known after the first Cat loss that he wasn't going to get an extension. He could have retired then but I suppose, in fairness, the thought he could salvage something. He put Haslem in a no win situation and it essentially it went down how it went down. If he had retired earlier many would have said that it would ruin recruiting which it well might have. Many of you seemed to want him coach for life but essentially this had to happen some time and it never would have been pretty because he is an asshole. Personally I find cleaning house, including the coaching staff, to be the best possible outcome. Coach K (no not that one) may turn out just fine - will go 9 and 3 with a home playoff win easily. Maybe he will continue on maybe he won't. This was inevitable because so many of you turned Hauck in to a cult figure which is your fault and no one elses. Kind of echoes another situation going on in the world today.
as well as other Universities.
