Any interest in discussing coaching moves?

To avoid the troll of the year award, I won't touch local talent. But here are some that might happen.

1. Florida takes either Mullen or Frost and the other ends up at
2. Tennessee
3. Les Miles goes all CoMo on us
4. Neil Brown leaves Troy for Oxford
5. Nebraska takes a cultural misfit, either Leach or the scumbag - my guess is Kelly
6. Oregon State takes McElwain off Florida's books
7. aTm, if it fires Sumlin, takes SMU's Chad Morris
8. Ku keeps their dude after Saturday's monumental moral victory over Bill Snyder
9. TxT holds pat but if they fire KK look for Brent Venables
10. Arkansas has a huge buyout and will pass rather than pay

If Nebraska fires Riley this year that program could end up in the cellar of the big 10. They've already got a reputation for being quick to fire coaches, and they found out last go round that they don't have the clout they thought they did when it comes to coaching searches.

For sheer entertainment value I'd love to see Leach in Lincoln. That would be Hindenburg- level disastrous.

WIllie Taggert will get massive consideration at Florida. I then wonder if Nike would throw a boatload of money at Chip to return.
KState not getting Snyder to retire and hiring Venables would be like not getting Brad Underwood.
I still think Les Miles at Nebraska would be intriguing.
I think Leach goes somewhere, maybe Mizzou?
McElwain would then think about Wazzu.

I’m just hoping we finish strong and then go hunting for recruits and eligible grad transfers of these programs.

I’ll order a couple OLinemen and defensive backs, please.

Stanford is also maybe one to keep an eye on. David Shaw's name usually comes up in the NFL after every season, and there are at least six teams who will likely be looking for a new head coach in January.

What about Charlie Strong to Florida? He was a successful DC there for a while before going to Louisville and has South Florida playing well. Plus has strong (no pun intended) recruiting ties to FL.

 

[2020cy]

I really don't want to talk about, especially if it involves a certain ISU coach.

 

[somecyguy]

Charlie Strong would be crazy to take the UF job. UF = UT. Same types of egos and expectations and people pulling you in a million directions. Why would he sign up for that again?

I think NU is screwed whether they fire Riley or not. I think at this point, I would lean toward doing so because even recruits notice he is circling the drain. I hope ISU can poach a few of their recruits.

Yeah, that was my immediate thought as well. Maybe he learned from his experience at Texas and he'd have a better handle on it the second time around, but he also now knows the grass isn't always greener.

In fairness, though, he was always screwed at Texas as their second choice. They never gave him a chance. If he was Florida's first call, then maybe it's a different story.

To me any school that offers a coaching job, but stipulates how you have to win (and win a lot), is a disaster waiting to happen.

Frost is the most interesting play. Nebby needs to back up the truck for him, but would be hilarious if he spurned the alma mater for Florida. And if he were smart, he probably should.

Nebraska still has not realized they are irrelevant.

Perhaps Frost will feel obligated to give it a try at NU, but it must cross his mind that going back to the prairie as a legend has more negative outcomes than good. I’m sure he can win there, but will NU fans be happy with being a poor-mans Wisconsin? That didn’t appease the locals for Bo.

I think if Bielema gets fired at Arkansas, he'd be a good fit at Nebraska. He was great at Wisconsin in the midwest and could certainly give the corn an identity running the ball.

I dont know why he sucks at Arky, but just seems like he belongs in the midwest finding big farm kids to pound away with up front. He'd make the Iowa/Nu game an actual rivalry.

i'm not worried about CMC leaving Iowa State in the near future. However, I'm very concerned about losing Tom Manning at the end of this year or possibly next.

Not me. The coaches on this staff are very close and genuinely love each other. I honestly have never seen another staff that was this close. Most staffs have personalities that clash or coaches who are all about themselves, but these guys aren't like that.

butch Jones to Ole Miss. you heard it here first.

I want to know what Surly has posted on other boards about his prediction for Campbell...because you know this has changed for each audience.

That guy is a massive myocardial infarction waiting to happen. That would have to scare a lot of teams off I would think.

With the season Arizona is having I expected Rich Rod to start getting his name thrown out for jobs. I looked up his contract and found this, I doubt he leaves Tuscon any time soon.
