Wow! Everyone had penciled CGA in for another year at Utah State. Personally, I think it's a heck of a hire.Wisconsin spot is filled. Utah St. Head Coach Gary Andersen. The wheel continues to turn
Looks like "Mama Called" another HC home..I hope Coach Clarke does good at JSU..I'll have too go watch a couple JSU games this coming season..South Alabama Defensive Coordinator Bill Clark is expected to be named Jacksonville State's new coach tomorrow.

Mrs. 1967 is a former Marching Southerner and we go to several games every year. I'm glad they hired a good young coach with local roots, he'll be less likely to leave if a bigger school calls. Anyone would have been an improvement over Crowe, but glad they didn't take Bobby Wallace.Looks like "Mama Called" another HC home..I hope Coach Clarke does good at JSU..I'll have too go watch a couple JSU games this coming season..
Exactly..And Coach Crowe wore out his welcome at JSU..Lots of folks quit supporting the football program..Attendance has steadily gone down the last few years..Hopefully hiring a local boy will re-energize the program & folks will start supporting the football program again..Mrs. 1967 is a former Marching Southerner and we go to several games every year.

It's official now...unless ESPN is reporting something too early again.Tony Jones (@Tjonessltrib) tweeted at 9:00 PM on Tue, Dec 18, 2012:

Not so fast my friend. Utah state doesn't give up without a fight, at least for the first half, then they get wore down.

Utah State's Gary Andersen, who guided the Aggies to their first bowl victory in 19 years, will be named Wisconsin's new coach, sources told ESPN.
The earliest a state job in Wisconsin can be filled is two weeks after the job's posting, meaning Andersen can't be officially announced by the school until Thursday.
Andersen interviewed with Wisconsin on Monday.
Oh the horror! Where will the talking heads say Saban is going now? Oh yeah, Penn State since it's close to West Virginia. I'm sure we don't have a prayer of keeping him now.Several national guys are tweeting that Bill O'Brien took the Browns job. Penn State looks to hire a coach.
Obviously, Oregon will be an open spot, too.

I think Chiz, Trooper and Luper would fit right in there. Threat of sanctions obviously never has bothered them. BTW any news on where T and L might land up? Any school taking the bait on Trooper and Ruben Foster?Going to be rather interesting to see the names pop up for the Oregon job with the threat of sanctions looming next to the money Nike pumps into the program.
Oregon already has a HC ready and waiting... The OC (Mark Helfrich) has been reportedly preemptively offered the job (kinda like Kelly was when he took over for when Belotti stepped into the AD role).Going to be rather interesting to see the names pop up for the Oregon job with the threat of sanctions looming next to the money Nike pumps into the program.
Beat me to it...Coming out now that O'Brien is staying at Penn State.
That brings back some bad bad memories that's for sure..Makes ya appreciate "The Process" x a million when those memories are brought back up..If I were a Penn State fan, I'd be super ticked at O'Brien if he leaves. Not sure when on the timeline he took the job, but even if it was before the sanctions were announced, he had to know they were fixing to get hammered. He had to beg players to not transfer, did he ask them to hold the rope? Now, the program will be set back even further and more may look to use the chance to transfer without sitting out.
I think he gets out of Oregon before the NCAA lowers the BOOM on The Ducks..He's going to Pete Carroll The Ducks..Who thinks Chip is gone after this game?
