It is WAY too easy to hold onto an elite these days. When I was at Tennessee a few seasons back I stepped away because I felt I was not doing the job that an elite school deserved. I don't expect others to do the same, but if you are underperforming several years in a row (not winning conf. titles at a minimum) then the carpet should be pulled from under you. I also think "elite" schools should vary from world to world based on conf. titles and final WIS Ranking over 10 seasons or so.
