The next 30 days or so are going to be real interesting.

From coachingsearch.com:

Les Miles is expected to have a “special meeting” with players this afternoon, according to NOLA.com. Miles will hold his weekly press conference around lunchtime.

I have a solution to the Georgia and LSU coaching woes. Trade Les to Georgia for Mark Richt....

They can both hire Houston Nutt and he can be a dual head coach.

There's going to be a lot of coaches getting raises this year. Probably more for staying put than leaving.

Rich Rod is happy where he is and the Tucson community.

Just passing along what I was told from 2 former WVU players that I work with. I was shocked, when they told me.

I've seen Rich Rod's name mentioned for the South Carolina job, too.

That was brought up by them, as well. They said RR wants back east for family reasons and VaTech, Maryland or South Carolina could be landing spots. Then they added that Coach Dana Holgersen wants the Miami job and would leave WVU to go there and RR could come in there, if that happens. Crazy stuff, but I never rule anything out when it comes to college football coaching changes.

A buddy out there says the same, but he is more of a hoops guy, so he could be wrong.

Actually, he is usually wrong on hoops...............he is my "go to guy", when making bracket picks. But, that is another story for sometime next year.

Anyone keeping up with how many firings and resignations can be attributed to Coach Saban? A few years ago I was counting and it was something in the line of 5. Urban, Sylvester, Tommy, Phil, and one of the ol sis coaches maybe. Then add Les, Mark and Gus. Of them all I was happiest to see Phat Phil get his due.

Given some things that happened during RR's departure from WVU and subsequent transition to Michigan I'd be really shocked if the mountaineers even gave him the time of day much less take him back. I think that bridge has been burned.

If true it's a solid hire, imo.

If that's the first domino to fall, get ready for a fun off season.

Fun? Yeah, if you mean reading and listening to a host of media types forecasting "X" coach to "Y" school and a bunch of fans pulling their hair out trying to think about whom to believe, then yeah, it's going to be "fun".

What isn't fun about that? You can always turn off ESPN or Finebaum. If it's anything like what we've been seeing from LSU fans (see tigerdroppings.net), I think it's going to be quite pleasant to be a Bama fan. To those fanbases, I can only say with polite courtesy:

Given Memphis' three game skid, I suspect he has had this in the works for some time now.

That's very fun to me...so yeah, fun.

With all these vacancies, and more to come, has anyone here heard Mack Brown's name come up ? He said on an ESPN show he would listen if someone called.

I would hire him but only if he guaranteed that Cold would not get hurt.
