All FB coaching rumors and speculation

Those teams need to be scary so wasn't a big deal imo.

I'm still lost on how he leaves with Cinci in their current position.

The same way another potential playoff bound coach just left

this is the craziest coaching carousel I've ever seen.....absolute madness rn

You could tell me Texas was firing Sark and hiring Lane Kiffin and I’d say that sounds about right.

Walters said much, much earlier today that CMC would not be on the show this evening.

So you’re saying Walters is in on it to? He gonna be the next voice of the Irish? Man, that’s another kick to the stones

ESPN article has Fickell as the top candidate and Freeman next. Hope this stays this way.

Oh Crap! CMC to the Bearcats!

Who else should have played Rudy?

Cant believe Disney+ hasnt remade that movie wit Lil Bow Wow in the Rudy role.

 

[CloneGuy8]

Is this the craziest 3 day stretch in college football history? This is all wild.

 

[dosry5]

That makes me horny!

Sorry, I’m married.

Rumor has it ND was telling Kelly he needed to win a Natty in the next 3 years or be done. This move was not just for the money, but for a re-set of the clock.

Pretty sure Fickell has more integrity than Kelly. He could ask to coach out the season with Cincy.

That wouldn't surprise in a normal year.

Texas is one big scramble mode.

I would be shocked if ND hired someone who's never been a head coach.

Generally agree, but I also think in today's climate there's something to be said for trying to keep some recruiting continuity if Freeman is truly a star in that regard. I think ND sees what's happening with OU's recruits after their coach blindsided them.

Also, recruiting to ND isn't as easy as it is at the other blue bloods.

Honestly, I would chalk that up to Texas being Texas and not a bizarre carousel.

Worked for OSU and OU (until today)

Fickel is a great guy and is quite similar to CMC in alot of ways. Based on 2-3 conversations with him. First impression type thing.

True. There's that "academic standing" thing that can get in the way.

I think he’s hungry and has a big chip on his shoulder after what happened at tOSU(in a good way).
