RE: Todd Graham on the hot seat at ASU
Keep in mind that Todd Graham still has four years left on his contact. Given three sub-par seasons at ASU, it's rather amazing they kept rolling over his contract, but that perhaps reflects the tenaciousness of Todd.
ASU started last season 4-0, and then tanked the rest of the season, finishing 1-7. Given the tough slate ahead for 2017, I think the early San Diego State and @ Texas Tech games will need to be must-wins for Todd to survive the season.
Even though it will be a major financial drain with threes year left on the contract, ASU will probably fire Todd if he wins less than five games this season. Faced with a program spiraling downward, ASU would seek to make a clean break. Compare this with Rice's response to a program flat-lining under an over-extended Bailiff...
