I mean if getting spanked in your rivalry game and then getting destroyed by a team that hadn't won in 6 weeks doesn't get you shown the door what would?

Getting scared that, like Holmoe, Cal will keep Tedford until his contract is up?

I'm shuddering at the thought.

IMO (and others posted on this), keeping Tedford will depress ticket sales by 7-10K seats per game, negating "savings" from retaining him. The question really comes down to whether Barbour can raise the $7M+ to get us out of this mess. If she can raise all or most of it, he's gone.
