Didn't work the first time at ECU, didn't work the 2nd time either.

Fired after 4 losing seasons. 46-83 in league play

Would you want JC fired if he goes 15-15 and 6-11 next year?

Question I have, why re-hire a guy who didn't work out the first time?

Has any other Coach,been hired and fired, and then hired and fired again by the same school??

Leitao wasn't fired twice though.

First time he left after 3 good years for UVA.

Dooley fired, moved down, can back and then fired a 2nd time

Let the first few swipes go. But these keep coming the same day.
Is there a reason to continually kick a guy who gave 4 years to GW at a point when he is the most down?

The Dude is a troll, and it was my mistake for engaging him in one of his dozens of echo chamber posts to himself.

This popped up on my feed this morning. They do love him there.

Went to look at the KU fan reaction and found a very funny Twitter account, FakeJoeDooley. This tweet is both hilarious and, well, maybe not that far off from the truth of today’s NCAA…
