Kennesaw State fired coach Brian Bohannon, who turned it from an FCS startup team into a playoff team and then into an FBS program. We discuss:

  • How Kennesaw trapped itself

  • The shambolic handling of the announcement

  • The history of FBS transition programs firing coaches

  • Why Bohannon’s firing was bound to get messy

  • What happens when a program jumps before it’s ready

  • Whether the firing was actually a bad idea
