Toilet Mouth posted:Best move for Baylor is to retain the current staff in hopes that Briles alone is enough to satisfy the public. Make Phil Bennett interim HC next year (he has HC experience), and then see if they can bring back Philip Montgomery from Tulsa to be the new HC at the end of next season. Also the report indicates it wasnt just Briles, but other coaches doing this poo poo too.

MourningView posted:https://www.seccountry.com/lsu/repo...m_medium=Social No joke, FIU is going to be legit in a few years. The amount of money being thrown around at that school in literally every department would blow you away. I wouldn't be surprised if they do go after someone like Les Miles to grow the program.

skaboomizzy posted:FIU is a state-system university in a state run by someone who hates spending money on education and it's basically a commuter school. Where the hell are they getting all this money? The school expanded and became really big like in the 90s and early 00s, so I imagine they are starting to reap alumni donations. They also just built a med school and were able to poach a ton of talent from UM and secure a ton of affiliates. Other than that, I am not sure where else they are getting the money, but now I would say that there school facilities and faculty are better than UM, which is crazy because (at least in medicine) UM was seen as impossible to dethrone as the place with the most talent in south Florida.

At Florida Charlie would have a terrible defense one year and an amazing one the next with the exact same kids. I think there is just a learning curve to his system from the player side, but once they get it that defense is really good.

Wiccan Wasteland posted:Yeah this could be a good job if he's able to recruit without getting sanctions. Mario Cristobal was able to get 4 guys who were drafted into the NFL to go there, but I'm not sure if they where highly sought after players. Where FIU will be able to excel is in getting a ton of 3 star athletes. They might get a 4 star here or there, but the rich recruiting ground, the recent improvements made to the campus and stadium (honestly, place is looking better than UM and I say that as a UM alum), and the promise of actual play time and early on, and they should be able to rack up tons of 3 stars who want to play rather than sit on the bench at Bama, Ohio St, Florida, FSU, etc. I said a couple weeks ago, there is a ton of money being thrown around FIU right now, and its a great area to be in.

DuckHuntDog posted:I'd be curious what you think would be so toxic at the program to cause the football program to be so poor, though. Recruiting has not precipitously dropped, but the team consistently loses to way less talented teams. His tenure as a coach at Texas is historically the worst. You have boosters that go off the rail and think they are more important to the program than the coach. The reason why Texas isn't seen as a top job in football has everything to do with the structure that allows boosters to throw their weight around freely and operate independently of the Athletic Department. Like, imagine if you hire anyone other than Tom Herman, do you see that person lasting more than 3 years?

# ¿ Nov 22, 2016 07:36 |

If Texas doesn't get Tom Herman you honestly think they last more than 3 years if they don't have CFP appearance? The program has ridiculous expectations and the boosters have far too much control over a new AD and administration. Its exactly why you see mutiple reports about Strong being fired despite him not actually being fired.

The smoking gun for Tressel was him signing a form saying saying he didn't know of any violations and then evidence emerging that he clearly did. Its the NCAA equivalent of perjury or falsifying an affadavit.

LeeMajors posted:I don't know anything anymore. I feel like the coaching pool is weak. Strong? Morris would be in over his head I think. Throw cash at Holgo? His riverboat offense fits the bill. I think people are underestimating how much of a mess that side of the ball was when Muschamp left. Remember last year Florida only had 5 scholarship OL. Even if you recruit that heavily, you are looking at true freshmen to shore it up, which is probably the position that is hardest for an 18 year old kid to step into. Hell, it usually takes two years just to get them up to proper weight. There are some good players, but absolutely no depth and of course the ongoing QB struggles. I think next year you should at least see the line being better at the run game and hopefully a good QB comes along.

General Dog posted:I can't remember, was Beckman fired for cause? Seems like that almost never happens, probably usually generates more negative attention for the school than it's worth. According to this article, he did not get his buyout. Also, Mike Leach was fired for cause, but then after it came out that the James family was full of poo poo he sued and won. Schools usually try to negotiate a little reasoning that it might be cheaper and easier to give some money for them to just go away rather than fight in court. Even USC (if I recall correctly) had a settlement with Sark rather than going to court over the buyout. edit: ^^That number is totally affordable and worth it for just having him go away forever. Might end up spending more in court to not pay him that.
