Ok, so conventional take on David Shaw at Stanford is he can coach there for as long as he likes, because he’s done enough in the past and he’s such a good fit for the school. But he’s had a few rotten years now (Covid year doesn’t count, so 2019: 4-8, 2021: 3-9) and there’s no guarantee that they even get one conference win this season with Smith out. The rest of the North looks really good, they miss Colorado this year, so outside of a home game w/ ASU in 3 weeks, I don’t see any obvious wins. The remaining non-conference games are BYU and Notre Dame, so not much relief there. Historically, Buddy Teevans 3 seasons as head coach (where he went 10-23) May end up better than Shaw’s last 3 full seasons with how this appears to be headed. Is his seat really secure enough that he can survive a 2-10 or 1-11 season at this point?

This was supposed to be a year where Houston would content for a NY6 bowl; instead they’re 2-3 (and probably fortunate they won those two) and have players fighting on the sideline. With them heading to the Big 12 next year; Holgo has got to be running out of time right?

Wins and losses don’t really even factor into Harsi’s fate; he was never the guy for the powers that be at Auburn; he was doomed from day 1 and was ultra-doomed the day they ran off the AD

He’s always been on a ticking clock but winning extends his time. Losing an embarrassing game at home to a bad team definitely shortens it.

It's only his second season on a five year deal. What are the expectations like there? And knowing how underfunded HBCUs usually are, what are the chances they eat a buyout.

You will find that it is not, in fact, the big 12 but the pac 12 isnt gonna be so terrifying soon anyway

Colorado has been a laughingstock for almost 20 years at this point. The Pac-12 move was supposed to help but they've gotten worse, not better.

I don't see any quick fix for that program.

I'm guessing the Board will eventually mistake correlation for causation and tell the next coach to re-open the rape factory they had when they were good.

I watched that game live and Colorado swiftly and thoroughly destroyed Nebraska’s mystique forever.

Just cast it in the fires of Mt Doom.

I know a lot of y’all are my age but if y’all weren’t watching in the 90s, it’s impossible to overstate what a meat grinder their triple was under Tommie Frazier and even Scott Frost. Just murderous.

And it all evaporated that afternoon at the hands of Gary Barnett, Chris Brown, and Bobby Purify.

This would be incredible for many reasons. Mainly that TAMU thinks they can buy themselves a title despite never winning loving anything ever.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
I don't think Dorrell had a chance. When Arizona came out almost-mediocre instead of historically terrible there went the only win on the schedule, which was one of the toughest in the country for some reason; I get these schedules are made a decade in advance but you have to be realistic about your program and have a cupcake every year if you're a historically mediocre to bad team, if it changes in the future react then. AD made a bad hire and he's been there since 2013 so he made the schedule. He's probably the dude that needs to actually go.

I agree that Shaw should probably be on the hot seat although probably isn't.

How do you not at least have an emergency eject button if the coach isn't delivering as promised 5 years later

You'd think "not winning 10 games a year in 3 out of 5 seasons" would the sort of metric you'd build right into your offer when you hire a new coach, so that you could fire them in year six if they're not cutting it, but I'm not some sort of hiring genius or anything.

Scott Woodward, the same guy who went to LSU and gave Brian Kelly the same deal.

To be fair he was basically brought in to both places to do the boosters bidding and make a big name hire and he did in both cases. If the people with the money didn’t like the contracts they wouldn’t have happened, so you have to assume that the big boosters knew that buying it out was always a possibility and signed off.
