The Bear wouldn't be disgusted. Whether you like him or not, or whether he's a good guy or not (which I think most of us agree he is), his job is to win football games, not be a nice guy.
Other than the 10-2 year, he was a total of 16-21 at a very prestigious football university. And even with last year's team, that was an unbelievably talented team. Yet look how many games they had to fight tooth and nail just to win.. against mediocre teams.
I wasn't happy when they hired Shula, and I am happy now that he's gone. He's NEVER been a successful coach anywhere he's been. His offense is vanilla, his playcalling is suspect and his decision making ability is questionable at best.
Mal Moore should also be gone with Shula.
