Good luck trying to coach a team that knows it can just get you fired at any moment.
Their football program is most likely headed for some hard times.
Pinkel is a dead man walking - mainly for the reason that he is a white male-but since the team is faring so poorly, it makes him expendable. He is attempting to navigate a minefield and you can only get away with that for so long. The football team will demand a black coach and they will get one.
If I were Pinkel, I'd be brushing up my resume, although with the performance of the team as of late, he doesn't have a lot to commend him.
