What is the thought process for the people who want Brannen back? Earnest question. Is it just that you think the players are soft, so that's not a reason to fire him? That the whole thing is unfair?

What is it that gives you confidence Brannen is the right guy?

You would normally give a new coach three years. That's four with a Covid pass. I haven't been too enamored of the on-court results, but I'm not sure there's anything worth blowing up the program over

You don't think all those players leaving factors in? Do you think we won't be able to hire as good a replacement?

I'm finding it hard to understand why anyone would care much about moving on from Brannen at this point. Even you aren't happy with his on-court results. And I don't see how much more the program could be blown up. Our roster is 3 returning guys and 2 likely bench warmers.

I don't think being a p___k is cause for termination. Most college athletes have mixed feelings about the coach and plenty end up hating the sport. There are plenty of players in the portal.

Unless Cunningham has a killer hire up his sleeve, this appears to be an instance where the cure will prove to be more harmful than the disease.
