So many coaches fired at major schools, I’d wondered how the schools could find replacements with some potential to improve the programs. Looks like musical chairs to fill some, and others will probably be hard pressed to find viable new coaches. Opportunites for lower division winners.

When universities offer $4 million and up, they attract some attention...

There was a rumor that Nebraska flew Frost to Lincoln a week or so ago and he and Moos met on the plane. There’s a good article about Frost’s love/hate relationship with Nebraska. The rumor is 7 years/$35 million. Not too many people would get that kind of commitment.

Agreed. Nebraska isn’t a top tier job. FSU has more potential and year round golfing.

I heard Jon Gruden will be the next Tennessee coach. Been hearing that for years.

With the way Tennessee’s AD bungled this, Gruden would be wise to stay far far away from that mess.

If Gruden takes it, it is because 10mil is waving in front of him.

I would advise him not to return to Knoxville.

They earned it. Fulmer was doing well and the Regents kicked him to the curb.

Oh Well. I hate it for the legacy of TN Football but this is a reflection on the idiots that run the institution.

F-em.

Nebraska was good, when basically it was just them and Oklahoma battling it out every year in the Big 8.

Now, in the Big Ten: it’s Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, Wisconsin, Michigan State, etc.
