Look at the bright side. If we only when three the rest of the way (pretty likely, I think), Shaw won't have one of those pesky bowl games to worry about and can spend the extra time recruiting.

Maybe he could spend that time finding a new strength and conditioning coach.

And a new OC. And some new position coaches too (ILB, WR).

OTOH, getting to 6-6 gets you extra weeks of practice that I've read are very helpful to player development
