Bama, are you pulling ballcoach's chain again? He's an old guy and a veteran. Don't be sending him on a wild goose chase. :nono

I hear there are some alums in the mix in addition to Bream. If you are wondering why the firing came so long after the end of the season was because Jr told Barber to get rid of Toman because of all the negatives. It wasn't Barber's decision at all because Toman was his hire, therefore he was giving him the benefit of the doubt. Jr had heard from too many reports of what was going on to let Barber keep him.


JLFJR was obviously back to reading flamefans again This is all Carone's doing

As far as Toman being JB's hire, it means nothing So was Layer If you stick around long enough as an AD, you will have to fire coaches you hired Comes with the territory

If it had been Barber's decision he would have made it at the end of the season not a month later. He did fire Layer but many felt it was a season or two too late.

I can see a scenario where JR may have relayed the complaints he had received to JB for follow up, but as far as dictating a dismissal if Jeff did not think it was warranted, I highly doubt it

JR's suggestions = other people's decisions

Good luck to Coach Jackson. Hope he can guide the Flames back to the "character" that the program was built on. Felt pretty sure that JB would go after someone with head coaching experience but I guess he decided otherwise. Will be interesting to see who he hires as his assistants. Curious if there will be any link to Liberty past.....
