First one of these in awhile where I won't spend the offseason talking about Ferentz either getting fired or leaving for a different job. That's exciting. Now if/when we go 7-5 this year.....

Benne posted:So Mark Stoops is a dead man walking right I feel like he might have a dumb buyout (I'm assuming he has the same agent as his brother, which is also Ferentz's agent) but if UK doesn't care about that than yeah. He's doing good things in recruiting but the team hadn't improved at all and he's run through a bunch of coordinators.

If I were Jimbo I would definitely be desperate to leave a great job that has had two coaches in the last like 50 years for one that is in a more difficult conference, isn't a significant upgrade in anyway, and where the standard for keeping your job is winning multiple national titles.

I get it but man that is a high standard for the next guy to live up to. If you're in the SEC and aren't Saban you basically have to look over your shoulder at all times. It's not like LSU is bulletproof either. Their coaches pre-Saban were Gary Dinardo and Curley Hallman. It's a great job but they can definitely do a lot worse MourningView fucked around with this message at 23:43 on Sep 25, 2016 |

LLCoolJD posted:I think it's a pretty big job. They've had about 16 years of consistent success, and two national titles in that time under two different coaches. Big stadium, good recruiting. I remember the Dinardo years, but couldn't the same argument re: program prominence have been made against Florida when Spurrier left? Yeah and they immediately hired Ron Zook. And hired Muschamp after Urban. Replacing a good coach is really hard! Pakled posted:How likely is Bo Pelini to get hired by an FBS team this year Pretty likely if he wants I'd think.

Other than maybe USC, who seemingly refuses to even consider going outside the program for hires, what job open last year was better than LSU?

whiteyfats posted:He's the only one with any lasting success, right? I can't think of anybody else. I mean tbd on a couple of them but so far it'd be him or Dantonio. But there's also a chance he's using LSU the same way Saban uses Texas every time they get antsy about their coach where his agent leaks that he's being offered 50 million dollars a year or whatever and seriously considering it, which is followed immediately by Bama giving him a raise and buying him a house.

That's a good spot for him too, since a lot of his success is from out recruiting the rest of his conference and he could probably realistically do that at Houston (especially if Taggart gets another job)

WKU's kinda whatever this year but Jeff Brohm is an amazing offensive coach. He's like a younger Petrino without all the baggage. Taggert's turned things around at USF after doing a good job at WKU before that and is a great recruiter Brent Venables seems like he should get a head coaching job at some point but Clemson already pays him like one so he can be picky MourningView fucked around with this message at 06:30 on Oct 10, 2016 |

Oregon has a lot of money but it's not like they've ever been a huge destination for coaches. Kelly was a I-AA OC who almost no one had heard of when the hired him. Helfrich pre-Oregon was a middling coordinator at Colorado. To think that they're gonna be able to beat out LSU and possibly Texas for someone seems a tad optimistic

It was like $4.5 million which would suck but TV is bringing in so much money I have a hard time believing they couldn't have afforded it. Although let's also stop and laugh at them giving him any sort of significant buyout based on one good MAC season

DJExile posted:Not so sure about that latter part. Purdue is about as dead end as it gets these days. I mean depends on how high they aim. Fleck isn't taking that job, but anyone else is probably in play, though I agree I don't think any of the others are worth hiring (although Chris Creighton!!). I don't think they're gonna go that route again anyway. A retread like Miles or Pelini seems a lot more likely

I was really excited when they hired Hazell and I remember thinking that Joe Tiller was the worst hire in the history of the school the night they lost to Toledo in his opening game as head coach....I will let the experts do their job, I'm just glad Morgan Burke and his incredible, intergalactic hard-on for all things Ohio State won't be the driving force behind the search. https://twitter.com/danwolken/status/787737122652430336 The only guy on either staff who seems even remotely like a candidate for a head job is Schiano but perhaps they were very impressed with Fickell's 6-6 interim season I would hire Jeff Brohm but I feel like anyone who has read any of my posts knows that.
