Jurich and Kragthorpe obviously have some special relationship and Jurich is not going to fire him. Tom Jurich is a great Athletic Director but there are lot's of very capable Athletic Directors that can replace him. Louisville would be a Primo Job and I would have to think that Pitino would be a Possible Canidate along with many others. This program needs a high Profile Coach that will turn this program around and that would attract Top Recruits. If this program continues with the current Coaching staff and Coach it will continue to fall into an abyss it will never recover from. Just 2 years ago we were in the Top 10 and had just won the Orange Bowl and now we are a nobody and have not gone to a Bowl Game in 2 years. I am tired of hearing the excuse from&nbsp; both Jurich and Kragthorpe that this is Petrinos fault, My opinion is that both Jurich and Kragthorpe did not want any immediate success to be attributed&nbsp; to Petrino so they both decided to clean house of all remaining Petrino players so that any future success would be all thiers. It is time that Kragthorpe and Jurich take responsibility for the programs demise and not continiue with the blame game.&nbsp;</p> <fieldset class="poll-box"> <legend>Poll</legend> <h5 class="poll-title">If Steve Kragthorpe does not improve the Football program next year by having a winning season and a Bowl invitation and no action is taken by Tom Jurich should both Steve Kragthorpe and Tom Jurich be Fired?</h5> <div id="poll_container_34153_525177947" class="poll_container"> <div class="poll_option clearfix"> <div class="poll_option_percentage" style="display:none">32%</div> <div class="poll_option_result"> <h5>Yes</h5> <div class="poll_option_bar"><span class="vote_count">41</span> votes</div> </div> </div> <div class="poll_option clearfix"> <div class="poll_option_percentage" style="display:none">65%</div> <div class="poll_option_result"> <h5>No</h5> <div class="poll_option_bar"><span class="vote_count">82</span> votes</div> </div> </div> <div class="poll_option clearfix"> <div class="poll_option_percentage" style="display:none">2%</div> <div class="poll_option_result"> <h5>No Opinion</h5> <div class="poll_option_bar"><span class="vote_count">3</span> votes</div> </div> </div> <p class="poll-total-votes"><strong>126</strong> votes | <span class="poll-has-closed">Poll has closed</span> </p> </div> <script> FastInit.addOnLoad(function(){ new SBN.Poll('poll_container_34153_525177947').animateResults({renderImmediately:true}); }); </script> </fieldset>
