***2025-26 CFB Coaching Carousel***

Not a done deal but looking very likely. Not exciting but some donors want him and the AD is listening to the donors this time unlike the last AD. He also has dantonios seal of approval but man this is not a good hire.
If true, I'd say that's an upgrade and a great hire!
 
Good hire based on what? Genuinely curious
In the portal era you want a current coach so that you can grab the existing players to smooth the transition process. This doesn’t get you that. Plus his record is in the big ten west which doesn’t count. He also isn’t going to engage the fan base

I’d rather have smith for another year then fitz

Per their own rules, the CFP committee should remove Mississippi from the playoffs. The committee did this to Florida State due to their QB being injured. Losting your head coach (along with) other coaching staff is more detrimental than losing your QB . Won't happen though.
They moved them from the top 4 and the commettee has already said this will effect ole miss’s ranking especially with how many assistants might leave
 
I feel like Lane in Baton Rouge is finally giving us the present of MENSA going there but never happening.

Drop Mississippi and add Texas?

I’d think everyone (who matters) would be onboard for this.
 


“I’m bailing on my football team before they’re done playing, but that mean old AD at Ole Miss refused to let me keep coaching the team that I’m bailing on. Even though pretty much every business everywhere walks employees out the building the day they quit, I’m going to throw a hissy fit because they wouldn’t let me stay through the playoffs. I can’t wait to bring my level of ethics-based, loyalty-infused, high-quality improvement of student-athletes to LSU, just I did at the other jobs I quit or was fired from. Geaux Tigers.”

What do you mean "moved them from top 4"? Mississippi hasn't been in the top 4 in any ranking. Florida State dropped one stop for a QB out.

Yep Florida dropped one spot out of the top 4. If there was a 12 team playoff they still would have been in. Ole miss will drop but in a 12 team they won’t drop all the way out
