The Aggie Shuffle
Wasn't Ed Hardin a bit tough on A&T's firing of Head Football Coach George Small Monday?
After all, consecutive 3-8 seasons are no cause for celebration. Neither was a loss to Division II N.C. Central.
But Small's dismissal was handled crudely and A&T has fired so many athletics officials and coaches so fast in recent years, you have to wonder what's going on.
Hardin writes:
A&T is now looking for its third football coach in four years, the search presumably being led by the third athletics director in five years. The men's basketball program is playing under its third coach in six years, and the women's program has its sixth coach since 1999.
This is insane. This doesn't just make A&T look bad. It makes us all look bad.
Not to mention the judgment of those doing the hiring.
