if it’s a middling program idk. that’s a good Q. sometimes it does pan out. get the gears in motion for new season sooner. |

Date: November 4th, 2025 4:14 PM Author: Odious Aquamarine Pit idk, it seems to me that declaring the season is such a failure the coach needs to be out of the building this very week is worse for morale (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5793457&forum_id=2.#49401695) |

However then you have situations like Florida firing their coach right before the biggest game of their season against UGA and then almost winning the game (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5793457&forum_id=2.#49401459) |

So you get an extra shitty year 0 with new coach and new regime is up and running for year 1. Basically by giving up on current season early, you can start building for the future earlier
Athletic directors are forced to act this way because of the structure of the sport," Klatt said. "It is the business model that they're in. So, they have to react to current realities, and the current reality right now is that the structure of the calendar is forcing them to be prepared for roster building in the first week of December.
