100 percent. Maybe SIU would be better off with a new coach, but why set your coach up like this? If you want to fire him, fire him. Bell looks like an amateur with this newsletter.
Let's assume Barry and the Dawgs go 24-5, win the regular season, advance to the Arch Madness final, lose in OT and get a No. 2 seed in the NIT with their RPI of 37.
According to this, Barry would be fired for winning the league and getting snubbed by the committee because they won't "hedge" or "equivocate" on their newsletter statement.
Then they roll the dice and hire Bryan Mullins. Is everyone happy then?
