Maybe when you didn't make the sale, get a raise or promotion or get the employee of the month award at work, your family should greet you at home wearing paper bags.
Ummm.... don't you mean the saleS, get the raiseS or promotionS or employee of the month awardS
This isn't about one loss ....
Your analogy, like most of you "send in the clowns" rhetoric once again falls flat.
The program is ready for a change. That isn't a knock on Saul as a person. At $500k+ per year, the results they're getting isn't a good return on investment. It's time to go in a different direction.
Quit trying to make it like some crusade to crucify Saul Phillips the man.
My point is if any of your work life were subject to the same scrutiny you put on this basketball team, all of you would be crying like little children and would never leave the house. Nice win!
When someone decides to pay me north of $2.5M over five years and I net a less than average result three of those five years and barely a 54% success rate over the term of that deal ... I'll happily accept criticism.
It comes with the territory of being a division one basketball (or football) head coach. Saul is a big boy. He knows what he does for a living and understands what it opens him up to.
Scrutiny is part of the job when you're the highest paid employee at your said company. You don't think the university president isn't under scrutiny for their results five years into their term?
Hell, even minimum wage workers are scrutinized for the work they perform. It's called an evaluation.
To think Saul's results as a highly paid coach shouldn't be subject to scrutinizing is laughable.
