He is an older man, he's 41.

Now, if the media would grow up, so they could be proclaimed a man. The media sure lowered themselves in my eyes.

Corey time....you sure opened up the article and read it though...didn't YOU?

Dad- I love it. I'm staying out of this one- headline says it all

Bullnose, Jay (8/13/2008 4:19:57 AM)

FIRE GUNDY, Do you have a solution other than firing the coach? Who should replace him? Did he steal your girl in college or do you have a solution beyond termination? Is it personal or legitimate? Fire him and then what?

FIRE GUNDY, TULSA (8/13/2008 7:53:46 AM)

Yes-

Fire him and hire someone who is a good coach. Given the size of our program I would consider the following factors important, as they should have been 3 years ago- prior Division I head coaching experience before coming to OSU, a winning record, and finally the basic social skills to win over the fans and his players.

Look at the stats- even going back to 1990 (the start of his assistant coaching career) Gundy has a losing record. Look at Gundy's record as an assistant at the only 2 jobs he's had outside of OSU- 1996 a year at Baylor losing season, 1997-2000 at Maryland loser every year.

Gundy had success under Miles and was already at OSU. Those were his sole qualifications for the job.

I would say that when we hire the new coach next year we should take some other things into consideration.

Awesome news story on a 41 year old who purchased a convenience store sandwich. Glad I spent the time.
