Think of it this way: He's 7 years into his tenure, the program is stable following the NCAA investigation in 2008, he had several recruiting classes run their life cycle and we're facing recruiting that is drying up, fan apathy and back to back NITs.
Yeah, we fire him still.
Agreed. Bigger picture beyond this season makes a change necessary now.
If I didn't think it would absolutely stop us from hiring a good coach, I would tell him to clear his office out by noon tomorrow. And give Damon a shot. But that will not bring in new or keep current fans that we WILL lose as he will always be associated with old regime.

Killing time. Kicking stuff around. That's all we're doing.
May we never get into this predicament again.

Not going to make a hire now anyway and many coaches like Roy Williams for instance, would tell his coaching tree to stay away from Memphis job as they fire coaches mid-season which is pretty much unheard of in CBB short of an assault with a deadly weapon.
