he's also continuously blown away once a season, this year for the big 10 title against a 7-5 team. He's also managed to fall short in title games for Big 12. Nebraska fans didnt hire him to win 10 a year and go the holiday bowl. They are a very similar fan base to Bama or Notre Dame, its only a matter of time before the gap in expectations and achievement start to seem huge.He won 10 games this year. Up from 9 the previous two years. I know they fired Solitch after a 9-3 season, but that AD is gone now.
Tressel doesnt have a show cause on him does he? Or was he coaching somewhere this year?Sorry I didn't even see that 'word' when I read it before posting. Thanks for catching and deleting the post!
Getting back to the topic.....what about Tressel and/or Jim Leavitt?
I think at this point UT prospects know they are not their 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th choice....that has to be an issue as well in the process.
He does and there is conflicting information in various news outlets as to how severe it is. Mandel at SI wrote that all he had to do was sit out the 1st 5 games plus the bowl game the first year plus submit a report to NCAA every 6 months. Dunno?Tressel doesnt have a show cause on him does he? Or was he coaching somewhere this year?
Good move for them. USF has just enough going for it to become a spoiler, and Taggart will certainly help them.South Florida has hired Willie Taggart from Western Kentucky.
One of the better hires so far.South Florida has hired Willie Taggart from Western Kentucky.
LOL, Arky St is DYING to become the 'one and done' capital of the CFB world.Petrino to Arkansas State is picking up a lot of steam
Is Ark ST part of the Univ of Ark system like UAB and UAH are for us? IF yes, I don't see them hiring him.Will an Arkansas school actually hire Petrino? Now that's desperation.
Interesting..., I can't decide if it is a move up, down, or sideways.Word breaking now but reports are saying Tubberville has taken the Cincinnati job.
And, as expected, the general consensus is, "Say what!?"
A good point that was brought up: Cincy's path to a major bowl is far easier than Texas Tech's path.Interesting..., I can't decide if it is a move up, down, or sideways.
For a year... After the BCS is done, the Big East has no guarantee of anything. Perhaps he got assurance of a move to another conference?A good point that was brought up: Cincy's path to a major bowl is far easier than Texas Tech's path.
