That's good, he will always be 3rd to Coach Bryant and Coach Saban.

FIFY

ETA: Seriously, this looks like a hissy fit retirement. An absolute guess: He was asked to retire when the season was over and he said why not retire now then.

Some of the HBC's best quotes.

I haven't read the thread, so SIAP, but he is the logical replacement for Holtz at ESPN. Quicker wit...

Holtz said the Spurrier would never win an SEC Championship at USC, I kind of hate that he was right

I hated it for him that his best USCe team happened to be 2010. Would have been nice to see him win an SEC title there.

I say Corso.

Personally, I never liked Spurrier. However, that doesn't mean that I ignore his many accomplishments.
Am I alone on this?

Hadn't thought of that, would be fantastic.

Update: In last 48 hours, 3 head coaches fired, HBC retiring, an AD resigns & starting QB on No. 8 team out for year because of PEDs #ugh

I'm confused, though. Who was the third head coach fired?

I didn't like him, either. I will still miss him and I can't explain that!

Edsall was fired from Maryland yesterday or Dan McCarney from North Texas.

Maybe they were including Philbin for the Dolphins for some odd reason.

USC (Sarkisian), Maryland (Edsall), and North Texas (McCarney).

Whoever does the annual coaching carousel thread gets an early start this year.

Maudiemae · Oct 12, 2015

Thanks. I didn't know about McCarney. Boy, it has been a very busy couple of days in the world of CFB!

Is Holtz still on ESPN often? Admittedly, I haven't been watching as much ESPN since they have started pushing "personalities" like Kanell and Galloway, but I can't remember seeing Holtz on ESPN in a while.

As much as I like Corso, he's almost unintelligible these days. Spurrier would definitely bring some serious LOL's (and real insight) in his spot...

He was a good coach...but you could argue that he should have won more titles while at UF...they dominated the SEC for a while.

His whining always got on my nerves....something about his voice...or maybe it was his east tennessee accent.

I think it's perfect for the deadpan snarks he's known for.

Wow. What a day. :conf2:

Sad to hear this but at least he didn't drag it out. He gave us some great memories over the years. I hope he enjoys golfing.

So we had Sarkisian fired, Edstal fired, who was the 3rd?

North Texas fired their coach, Dan McCarney.
