Coaching Changes

[glm47]

He was just fired. That's all that needs to be known.

Exactly! 15-21 in the last 4 years. 3-11 in the last two.

Even the mention of his name is pure nonsense.

Skip Holtz to Temple?

Skip Holtz to Temple?

He's coached up there in the NE before (at UConn). I bet they'd like to go to 7 bowls in a row (legitimately).

Skip Holtz to Temple?

Does that mean we'd have to pay him less if he gets a job right away?

[Blue Dawg]

Rich Rod to Jacksonville St

If they were in CUSA they could go 7 bowl in a row.

[inudesu]

You seen the new AAC? They are in CUSA. At least, they're about to be.

[HogDawg]

Just saw a report on that. UF has narrowed their wish list to Lane Kiffin, Mike Stoops, and Napier, with Napier considered the leading candidate. Damn! can't believe Skippy was not on their list.

You should ask Tech52 about this. He still thinks Holtz is the cat's meow, and he's been defending Holtz to the end. Surely if Holtz was hat good, someone else would want him.

I hope LA Tech doesn't end up regretting this one.

Nope

I have not, some of you just can’t stop being hyperbolic. Please, point out anywhere that I have said “Holtz should still be here” since his firing announcement.

You all just act like weve been dealing with a Chad Morris/Arkansas situation over a period of 20 years.

Lincoln Riley to USC

The OU president with his "I wish we'd had some more notice" comments. . .

Talk about some stones. The Big 12 would like a word pal.

Nothing brings out the hypocrisy in college sports like realignment and the coaching carousel. You could set your clock to it -

"It's just unfair and bad for the sport for one conference to steal from another" (raids the next smallest fish in the pond)

"I just feel bad for these kids that he looked in the eye and recruited that must feel so shaken" (don't mention that the coach we're about to hire would have done the same thing)

"I can't believe these kids and their lack of commitment, they should have committed to the school not the coach" (happy to accept the guys from the new coach's old school or pick up pieces from some unrelated school when they have a coaching change)

I agree. The hypocrisy is incredible.

I still say, Lincoln Riley is getting out while the getting is good. He knows OU has almost no chance of winning the SEC West against Bama, LSU, TX A&M, etc....every year in the new SEC, so he's splitting town while he can. And Riley got a good job too, in a conference he knows he can dominate. This is a VERY astute move for Lincoln Riley. He outsmarted them all, and will parlay his success at OU into generational money at USC. Hey, there's nothing wrong with living near the beach either.

All this conference realignment mayhem is on them and Texas, so I have no sympathy for either school

Exactly! I see them both in the mid-bottom of the west...below Arkansas and A&M. That will be wonderful!
