There is talk by some individuals about putting up another Fire Mooney billboard. The last one was about as successful for the anti-Mooney pact as the bombing of peril harbor was for the Japanese. It caused a swell of support for Mooney, which helped lead to a contract extension. It was an embarrassment to the school that lead to widespread criticism of the group responsible to the point they were pressured to take it down almost immediately. Finally, after it was evident the strategy was a failure, the group tried save face by saying it motivated the team to do better.
I do not criticize those that advocate for a new coach. They have the right to communicate their views. If this season does not go well, I expect increase scrutiny of the coach, but that is many months away. The best way the anti Mooney pact should approach this is by clearly communicating to the admiration and the board of directors why it is in the best interest of the University to make a change. With all the stress they are dealing with now relative to potential name changes on buildings, this is not the time to get their attention in a positive frame of mind.
