Bruce Read Has Been Fired Effective Immediately.

Really wonder if the decision to fire Read was Riley's call or if it came from the administration??

I was wondering the same thing...

This was pondered earlier.
If the decision came from above Riley, the program is in serious trouble.

I would have to agree with this

Maybe SE is tired of being AD and wants to try his hand at special teams. lol I'd be surprised if anyone forced Riley's hand but I guess you never know!

I'd be nearly just as worried if Riley was going to keep Read around after all. I would imagine this was Riley doing what he felt needed to be done, especially after the Hughes firing. I think he wants to make a legit run in his (almost certainly) limited time and is going to make some tough calls to try and make it happen. Different world than OSU.

Coaches decision all the way. Why would it not be, considering the results this year? Pretty plain to see what needed to transpire.

Trapped....I actually thought about you Friday evening after the game.

How's it going in enemy territory?
