Sounds like Miami likes their chances of getting something done early next week per this article. I think someone forgot to tell them they need to fire their current coach.
All FB coaching rumors and speculation

It's pretty ****** for Manny, but Miami probably won't fire him unless they have the guy they want lined up. If they don't get their guy they will probably stay with Manny.
For all the Manning haters, Messingham is available.

The thought of another Messingham offense is giving me Nam flashbacks...For all the Manning haters, Messingham is available.

If someone offers you double your salary you at least listen. If you don't I question your intelligence.
is that a part of the process??
Sorry I'm just sick of people questioning his loyalty. He turned down Washington and their big offer. He's only leaving for a certain couple of jobs and he didn't get one of them.

Available for what? Collect towels and jocks after the game to wash them?
You haven't been listening to what Campbell has been saying ever since he got here.
so dumb.
we really don’t know how seriously he considered usc. to be honest, it always made some sense for him to look a bit more seriously at jobs this year. The big senior class. The bit of a disappointment of a season. And the uncertainty of the conference. And maybe he had a bit of a 6 year itch. I’m thankful a much better fit for usc came along so we will never know how close he came to taking that job.
for all we know after this, he might just realize he is where he wants to be. Or maybe he continues looking for a exit. We don’t know. I think both are possible.
in all honesty, other than the more serious than usual interest in usc, this years job carosoul was pretty similar to every other year. Schools perceived as better jobs than Iowa state wanted him (Florida state, Tennessee, Washington) and he wasn’t interested. But this year a couple of elite jobs came up but there were better options for those schools. I’m very thankful that ND hired freeman as DC last year, otherwise we might not have been so lucky.
It seems obvious that Riley left Oklahoma in large part so he avoids having to play in the SEC and all that goes with that.
So it would follow that any coach who is thinking about taking the OU job that that is going to weigh on their minds as well.
In five years Riley won 85% of his games at OU. Is there anybody here that thinks that OU is going to win 85% of their games in their first five years in the SEC?

A lot of these journalists are just slinging mud at the wall hoping it will stick. CMC isn’t talking to every school that has an opening. They truly don’t understand the man and there are only 2or 3 schools that he would even leave for.
With Jamie's cancer diagnosis and admission to the public, it's entirely possible that JP and CMC will be working out details to an extension later but for now, Campbell is more worried about JP concentrating on his treatment instead of his extension possibilities. THAT seems more in line to the Matt Campbell we have come to know. He's in the coaching profession. It doesn't carry many guarantees for long term success at one university. It only makes sense to inquire about other positions opening up. That's just the way of the world. ISU is not the queen on the chessboard of college football. Nor are we a pawn. We're more like a rook...or a bishop. We can sometimes make bold moves but we have limits. My opinion of Matt Campbell is based on what he has already done for this university...not what he may do if he decides to leave someday. He has that choice. I hope he stays for a good long time. But I am done worrying about something I can't control. So I'll just enjoy while he's here.
I think most of us agree that the OU shift to the SEC was a factor in Lincoln Riley's decision to take a "step down" to USC. And he was probably not in the loop.
I don't think he was afraid of the SEC, although we all agree it would have been tougher sledding. I think he just saw $$$ and a chance to dominate a conference that has been down.
Maybe the same for CMC, just opposite. The Big 12 will remain an A5 conference (I find it hilarious that they are already putting that fact into B12 commercials), seriously. Has anyone ever associated the word "Autonomous" with a conference before?
CMC might see the chance to be the Dabo Sweeney of the new Big 12. Get ISU to be the bad ass ***** that rarely loses in conference.

Umm yes people have lol. Autonomous 5 is the proper name for the media coined “Power 5”.
Is there anybody here who thinks Oklahoma will win 85% of their remaining games in the big 12?
