Well, I just think teams should show some respect that other team's seasons are not over yet. UGA would not be happy if they were in our shoes with a playoff berth right around the corner, maybe one day they'll get to experience what the playoffs feel like.
I think the NCAA will have to do something one day, it may be many many years from now but, they will eventually. As this playoff grows bigger and expands (like we all know it will) teams will be playing more games in late December and early January. It's not fair to those teams, that just because they are having success, their coaching staffs get picked apart by lesser teams right before a playoff run. The NCAA will need to create guidelines or rules that prohibit the hiring of coaches whose season has not ended. Similar to the NFL, you don't see DC and OC abandoning NFL teams right before the playoffs and it shouldn't happen in college either.
Don't give me the recruiting excuse either, your commitment and obligation to your current teams has to count for something. If you fire your coach, sorry but, recruiting will take a hit that year and the new guy will get started in mid January. That should just be part of the territory of firing a coach. It's just not fair to any of the playoff teams that have worked so hard to get to this moment and then have their coaching staff picked apart by vultures who demand that you skip town before the most important games of the season.
