Another weird firing/resignation in the Southeastern Conference?
A year ago Dennis Felton somehow managed to get Georgia to the SEC championship game.
Today he’s out of a job.
Huh?
Maybe it had something to do with the fact that the Bulldogs are 9-11 overall and 0-5 in the conference this season, including seven straight losses. Felton was 84-91 overall and 26-59 against SEC teams.
Ok, never mind.
Not surprising considering the ever more popular what have you done for me lately mentality.
But winning the SEC tourney was something else.
It may start a trend of under-performing teams from the BCS schools letting go of their coaches now instead of waiting until the end of season.
It’s the whole win now not later mentality that comes from the pros.
