Yeah. We all like him a lot. He's gutsy and takes chances which is the kind of poo poo you have to do with a team like Hawaii.

I mean we opened the year with an onside kick. How can you not love that?

If Charlie Strong can beat WVU then a TCU team that has looked pretty beatable is all that stands between him and locking down the job for another year (I'm giving him the Kansas win). With 8 regular season wins, an active 5-game win streak, and a chance to keep it going in a bowl game, I think there's no question he stays.

At 7 wins, it might be quite the conundrum. Assuming Louisville beats Houston, is a 9-3 or 8-4 Tom Herman a clear upgrade over a 7-5 Charlie Strong? Are we going to pay $18m in buyouts to fire our whole current staff, on top of whatever it takes to get Herman and a whole new staff in here, just to find out? All I know is, whatever move we make will almost certainly bite us in the rear end in a way that seems completely foreseeable in hindsight. If we pass on Herman, we'll get utterly humiliated in our bowl game and Herman will take some other team to the playoff in his first year while Texas flounders. If we fire Strong to go all-in on Herman, we'll spend another four years wandering in the wilderness with him while Strong spends a year killing it as a DC before landing a HC gig in the ACC or SEC and winning a ton of games there. It is known.

Lol, some radio dude in Nashville is hyping James Franklin up for the Tennessee job.

As if Franklin would rebuild Penn State from the ground up into a top 10 team to leave to take on a dumpster fire. Tennessee isn't even a lateral move from Penn State at this point.

His goal was to get a HC job, and the profile is definitely higher in the SEC. The presumption also was that Tennessee was loaded with seniors but PSU would be rebuilding a bit and Franklin might be under heat.

God the interim coach situation for Oregon is dire if Helfrich is canned mid-season. Interim Coach Brady Hoke is a nightmare, the LB coach who was demoted from DC last year (Pellum) would be just as bad. On offense, OC Matt Lubick is relatively unknown since OC was Scott Frost's position until he took the UCF job. It would be cool to recognize RB coach Gary Campbell's contribution to the program over the many years.

It would be hilarious if Hoke became Interim HC when his historically terrible defense is the main reason everyone would be getting fired. I'm rooting for it

Hoke's explanation on how Oregon managed to have 14 defensive players on the field after back to back Stanford timeouts at one point:

"They were in a different group one time and then another group and we were in a group and we didn't get enough guys in the other group off the field"

I've just realized one potential downside to hiring Ed Orgeron as head coach for LSU, regardless of whether he's good or terrible. It would make scanning threads really difficult when people are talking about Oregon.

It may depend on which schools are looking. If LSU keeps Orgeron and Texas keeps Strong, we may make the jump if/when we get steamrolled by LSU. I'm not sure what type of coach we'll go after though.
