Year 2: One full year of recruiting is enough
Year 3: First full class of JUCOs will be seniors
Year 4: 2020 is long enough, they need to dance by now.
Year 5: First full HS class will be seniors.
Year 6+: He gets until the practice facility is guaranteed to happen.
There were people who were calling for Rob Jeter's firing on the Eunuch board as early as the 2006-07 season. That was year 2. This is a different situation; while the cupboard wasn't bare until the end of Jeter's first year, in LaVall Jordan's case Amanda Braun picked up the cupboard, tilted it face forward so gravity swung open the doors, and then proceeded to beat the back of the cupboard with a heavy mallet.
So what is the limit of your patience? How long can he go without making the NCAA Tournament before you get on the bandwagon to chase him out of town?
Just wondering.

I honestly don't care. I want Braun gone, then I will care again.

My hope is by 2020...the standard has been set by AB. The better question may be when does she start clambering for him to be fired. Given her actions with RJ and her expectations for the program given her quoted reasons for RJ's firing, I can't see him struggling more than 2-3 years TOPS. Unless Mone is the puppet master behind the curtain allowing him to stay on longer than she or any of us would want to see if he does have a few rough years early on
i'm with you on this. But since there's no immediate sign of Braun leaving, i'd say Coach Jordan should be judged by the same standards Coach Jeter was judged by. If Coach Jordan gets a pass where Coach Jeter got sabotage, that's only further proof that Braun ought to go.
A panther is like a leopard. Except it hasn't been peppered.
Should you behold a panther crouch, prepare to say "ouch."
Better yet, if called by a panther...don't anther (Ogden Nash "The Panther")
Ceterum censo Amanda Braun debet esse accensa.
Jeter was given a lot of lee way early on. His teams struggled to get consistency his first several years, yet he was rewarded with extensions. I imagine coach Jordan will be held to higher standards immediately.
Didn't Jeter coach for 11 years?
I think that this poll itself underscores what a tough spot L.J. is in.
Best of luck to him.
