Pathetic post dude. I bet you are a real a$$ kicker at whatever job you have. Our fan base is really funny because they are so insecure. When we are low they are suicidal...when we show the smallest inkling of success they are over confident and think we are better than we are. not worth keeping the program alive. time to save money and redirect it to basketball. |

Utah has an extra 9 million to keep their coach. I think all this stuff has finally educated our fans about what we are up against. You can't keep any coaches unless you have that 9 million.
So were do we find 9 million to keep up? We need a better TV package and that means all Mountain teams have to improve.

Donate more, that is the answer. If you are not willing to do that, then pipe down.

People who post stuff like this (no hope, might as well quit) piss me off. That is not a fan - that is a twolips. There is plenty to have hope about with this football program. I agree with those who say without football, SDSU doesn't get my donations. I love basketball as well, but it's just a matter of time before Fisher retires and when he does, if we don't have football, I don't see us having enough money to replace the Fish with a big time coach. Football has been and always will be the key to a successful athletics program.

Are you all really already upset about hypothetically losing coach Hoke in 2-3 years? Wow - tallk about a defeatist attitude. It's a bit early for that don't you think? When was the last time an Aztec head football coach left for greener pastures? The negativity on these boards always cracks me up. Therapy people. No wonder why the Aztec boards are always so small. Ridiculous.
How about we enjoy the good times that are yet to come, before we mourn the coach that we are going to lose because of the good times he is going to create at some point in the future - hopefully. Do you get how insane that sounds? Any sanity here - or do I finally give up on you all?

Steve, the problem is that Sterk has a terrible track record hiring football coaches. It was that which was about to get him run out of Pullman before Weber threw him a life vest. The last thing we need is for Hoke to develop a strong program, leave, and Sterk to hire a slab who will destroy everyting that Hoke is building. Yes, I am very concerned about the future of our program if Hoke leaves. Utah and TCU immediately signed their coaches to new contracts when they went to a BCS game. Why is it we can't?[/quote]

Thats a typical bean counter mentality. Its the easiest thing in the world to cut operating budgets. The hard part is to accurately estimate the fall-out in all areas of revenue due to the cuts. Irony is the security words to post this, were, "red tape". Hey, hoop? If it's so "easiest" why the hcal ain't he governments able to?  |

Survalli.....Stop it.  We all thought the hire after Ted Tollner was the biggest in our history... We all thought the hire after Tom Craft was the biggest in our history... We all thought the hire after Chuck Long was the biggest in our history... But the hire after Brady Hoke WILL be our biggest in history. I don't think we will be able to keep Brady Hoke here after the next two years. If he can win 7 this year and 8 next year, he will prove his worth to everybody in the nation and the offers will come flowing in. Don't get me wrong, if Hoke has two straight bowl seasons I sure hope we can keep him, but I just don't see that happening.

I absolutely do not agree with the original poster that football should be dropped. Like others here, no football means no $$ from me. On the other hand, I cannot fault his bringing the subject up or wanting to seriously consider the issue. It is an important question and discussion of important questions is always good. We need to face facts, we've been spinning the recent conference raiding like crazy. We've been minimizing the impact of Utah's move and ignoring our own dashed hopes. Let's face it, we've just been jilted. For SDSU fans it's like the pretty little girl across the street that we've been in love with since the first grade ran off with the kid from our high school's rival. We all wanted to compete with the other California teams, it was our dream and now someone else ran off with it. What this constitutes is a serious shot across the bow. Instead of spinning this like crazy and refusing to acknowledge that the loss of football is within the realm of possiblity we need to redouble our efforts to succeed. Part of redoubling ones efforts is to consider the negative aspects of what we are facing, and in specific the negative nature of the initial post. The beliefs expressed by the poster are not his alone, there are others and a problem is posed. I go for the other half of his view, get off the pot and get serious about Aztec football. From the top (Admins.) to the bottom (me, fan and donor). To summarize: No to dropping football. Yes to talking about our problems. Yes to doing something about it. The Fred Noonan School of Navigation.  |

If you're going to make statements like this, say who the bad hires are. I'll answer for him. Sterk couldn't be expected to have been able to keep Mike Price forever. I was unimpressed with hiring Somebody Duda (don't remember the first name, nor do most WSU fans, probably). However, I could understand the hire since Duda was one of Price's coordinators so it was analogous to SDSU promoting Claude Gilbert when Don Coryell left. Well, Duda got shown the door after going 20-26 so it sure appeared as though Sterk wasn't going to settle for mediocrity. That's good. However, he replaced Duda with this guy: www.wsucougars.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/wulff_paul00.htmlWulff really isn't 20 years old, he only looks that way. I couldn't believe that Sterk hired anybody that inexperienced (you don't hire a guy with DIAA experience for a Pac-10 job) and to this point, I was correct and he was wrong: Wullf's two-year record of 3-22 makes Chuck Long look good in comparison. Bottom Line: In my mind at this point, Sterk looks like a hopefully more ethical Jeff Schemmel. |

No hope, huh??? (survalli) Where did you get your expertise to make that comment? Did you just happen to watch the 7th game in the NBA Finals last night? (Probably not) Sure glad the Lakers were not being coached by you. Anytime you give up guess what happens, you lose dude. Giving up now, are you?  |

Giving up now, are you? i posted in the other thread. only giving up i see is the failure of our administrators, state and local politicians, and conference officials to take action. I've been calling for lawsuit or legislation against the BCS and their member schools since its inception. Now in this current economic climate the disparity gap that the BCS has produced over the past 10 years is more than evident...even more so than pre-BCS. i think someone said it best when they pointed out BYU would never have won the National Championship if there had been a BCS. Football should be dropped unless one of the following scenarios take place: 1. We are in an autobid - BCS conference in 2012 2. There is active talk from the MWC execs of a lawsuit during the years 2010-2011. 3. California State legislature decides that all D-1 sports revenue must be shared between all D-1 participating California funded institutions |

No one can say it won't. No.2 may happen, but if your read the article a couple weeks ago by a sportswriter ( can't say what publication) he showed the main reason the BCS conferences were seeing the error of their ways. Because the commissioner of the BIG 10 realized that by not having a playoff they were leaving over $500 Billion ( Billion not million) on the table. All of a sudden playoffs looked really smart. No.3 I won't comment on since the Cal. Legis. can't even come up with a intelligent budget. |

IF keeping a coach is a problems then people needs to step up and donate. That how big time programs work. Look around and see the base salaries for all coaches. They get paid nothing. However, they make their money through donations.

Draw the line in the sand and don't cross the line.
Hoke wants his player tough. Does in not make sense that our fans work on being tough as well?
Come on exercise your mind. It is not easy to be an Aztec Fan. That is why there are so few of us.

Put it on a political board. I guess you moderators think this is appropriate??? Shall I start mentioning George W. Bush on every post. Is that the point of this board or is it Aztec sports? |
