Neff is not evaluating Brad on the last 13 years...

The light kind of went off for me today regarding what Neff is looking at and it is clearly not the entire Brad record as coach at Clemson. Many of us have harped on that many times and I just realized after thinking through today's announcement that I have been wrong in thinking this way.

Do you know when a new boss comes in and sits down with his team and says, "OK, from today forward everyone has a clean slate with me and we are starting from scratch?" I am convinced that Brad's evaluation with Neff started when Neff took over as AD and not when Brad started as head coach at Clemson. Based on that, Neff has had a certain set of expectations and he has been measuring the progress from the point he took over. That's why Brad's performance over the last few years doesn't look as bad to Neff as it may to the rest of us.

I think Neff now has a clear expectation as he laid out in his statement earlier this year and reinforced today in the press conference. Without an extension in place, this next year seems very critical to me and it does feel more like missing the NCAAT next year will absolutely call into question whether or not another extension is warranted or it is time to move on.

Maybe I'm way off on this but it is the only way I can rationalize how 13 years of mediocre performance is being overlooked, and that's because it is.

Neff is just taking the easy way out for himself. Like those before him - he doesn't care.

Just like those dismissing our bad losses this year, do whatever it takes to make Brad look like less of a loser.
