[LWC]

If I was the AD, what I do is start contacting coaches now, and make no secret about it. I would be certain to tell Joker first before I started, then I would tell the team or allow Joker to do it. While the season is going on and calls are being made, I would be sure to tell everyone that no change will be made this season and that Joker is not necessarily fired yet.

If you throw out interest and a very prized commodity takes interest, make the hire, if not, Joker knows and the team knows that he is on the hot seat. Hopefully, that makes him work even harder and inspires the players to play.

One thing I do NOT do is hire a coach with a dirty record. I would take a few more seasons of Joker before I hire a Petrino, Tressel, etc...
