Do you believe the earth is flat?

I'm not sure about funding travel for friendly press members, but I can tell you Frazier blocked me last year on twitter after a polite but negative comment I made about something. Odd, insecure behavior for an AD to block any critical alumni.

Funny, I have never seen you be polite in one of your threads about STF on this forum.

i thought you wanted to give him an extension?

Does anyone really think that Frazier will fire Harley (or anyone else for that matter)? My expectation is that Harley will be either given a one-year extension as interim, or remove the interim designation with a two or three-year contract.

I am not sure if this is a bit or not, but there is zero chance Harley is the head coach next year. It’s not something anyone needs to seriously worry about.

I can DEFINITELY see that happening.

The off cycle excuse is lame. We could have gone after a successful FCS coach or P4 coordinator if we wanted to, but we went the budget route and now we are seeing budget results. When Miami hired Manny Diaz late in the cycle, Temple responded by hiring Rod Carey, and we went and got Touchdown Tommy.

The ultimate reality is, this program puts out what the school puts in. We have among the lowest budgets in all of the FBS, and who knew we would in turn be ranked among the worst.

Yeah I’m not sure why anyone is saying that. This is a very bad team with a very bad staff. They can all go, if any players want to stay I say “good for them” and will root for them. But if anyone does leave it doesn’t hurt me one bit.

There's some talent here and there will be losses to P4s.

I feel sorry for Patterson. 1 year and fired.

He was retired before we hired him. He’ll be okay.

Yes.

Who has the inside information that Harley and Peterson will be fired? Everyone already has Harley and Peterson out the door. However, do you realize we are dealing with Sean T. Frazier - the Master of Extension? Remember how long he kept Burno? Hammock? I assume, then, that those of you who are sure must have inside information.

I’m still not sure if this is a bit or not. Harley is an interim head coach. They aren’t going to make him the permanent guy after this year.

It is not a bit. I’m sure you have the inside information, so I’ll take your word for it.

BTW, I want Harley out as much as everyone, but I do not trust S. T. Frazier to fire him. I expect some excuse/reason absolving Harley. We have too much experience expecting things from this AD that do not materialize.

Just so you guys can get a different perspective, this guy wrote this on the FB fan page today:

I am writing this because I’m sick of reading and hearing such uninformed negativity about Coach Harley and the NIU Football Team! You people writing this ****, should learn the FACTS and understand the situation Coach Harley was put in.

Coach Harley has done a miraculous job taking what he was given, and is the man for our future!

Thank you and please respect the work that’s gone into the job. Stand behind him and he will prove to all. Vince Scott


“Miraculous job”! lol. There are in fact fans out there who (incredibly) want him to stay. (I am not one of them.)

The board of trustees has to sign off on a contract for Harley.
