Farley really should retire. He’s hurting his coaching legacy outside the Cedar Valley. UNI can find someone much cheaper and get the same results.

There's more issues than money. Our coaches are unprepared and that means the team is unprepared. Dunne is the best we got.....Wow.....Franklin needs to clean the house.Comment

I’ve made peace that as long as Farley is here this team will be mediocre at best. I hardly ever watch UNI football anymore because it’s always the same old song. Basketball is heading that way for me too. All these coaches at UNI have been there for ever. And it’s same old mediocrity every year because they don’t have any pressure. Their seat is never even warm enough to motivate them to do something different. It is what it is I guess but it’s hard to feel engaged anymore. Athletics is such a boring product. I think they rejected AD candidates who understood you had to clean house to reboot this department. And they brought in a stoog who will just maintain the status quo.Originally posted by havok58 View PostComment

She's absolutely not that. Two minutes with her or her senior staff and you'll see that.Originally posted by QCPanther05 View PostComment

UNI blows now at basketball and football.
a fresh coat of paint in the women’s toilets and purple seats isn’t going to do a thing to help the product.
AD is going to need to raise money and clean house. Since she was the fourth option I don’t have much hope.
looking square in the face at a generation of mediocrity. Not going to help enrollment either.Comment

I feel she was hired to leave our coaches aloneComment

I get that impression too when at least one other more qualified candidate was blocked but an unnamed coach(es). Hmm, why would they want to do that do you think?Originally posted by pnthr53 View PostComment

We’ll see if she has the balls to fire one of these freeloaders.Originally posted by BCPanther View PostComment

Regardless of whether you want Farley gone or not, you have to AT LEAST let him finish this season. I'm fairly confident we'd finish just about the same regardless of whoever is at the helm of the program today or next week. Because Farley has been here for an incredible amount of time, you give him the dignity of finishing well and honoring him well. That's who UNI is through and through.Comment

I thought the other candidates withdrew their names from consideration?????
She won’t maintain the status quo….Comment

The problems are systemic and administrative.
Firing Mark isn't the fix, at least yet. Plus, firing him mis-season is a non-starter. He deserves to get to finish the year even if we were going to move on (we're not).
Let's give her a chance to fix the administrative side which she's got a good start on and then re-evaluate.

I agree that Farley should be allowed to retire at the end of this season. As the highest paid coach in the FCS ($400,000), he’s not delivering results that merit that pay. Take the savings from hiring a younger coach and put it towards the program. In these days of tight budgets $100,000 can go far (transfer portal). Again, you’re getting rid of a top salary for a coach that has a .500 record over the last few years and replace him with someone cheaper that can’t do worse.
plus, you may find a coach that understands and is willing to run an Air Raid offense.Comment
