that's a bold prediction cotton!!

Let's see how it plays out......

 

[Joefus]

Lincoln Riley is my prediction

He’s a SoCal guy I can’t imagine him leaving La for Auburn.

 

[Crimson1967]

Mike Shula out as OC at South Carolina.

Jimbo at Auburn might actually be a problem with a decent staff

 

[Methylred]

So I guess this means Auburn will end up fighting Arkansas for whatever coaching scraps are left over from LSU, Florida, and PSU. It’d sure be entertaining for the Waltons and Yella Fella to get into a bidding war.

I really thought they’d hold onto Freeze for a while and fire him at a more opportune time, but I guess I was giving the boogs too much credit.

 

[CrimSonami]

How odd would it be if Dabo traded the lake for the plains or switched to a different Death Valley?

I mean they’re both Tigers, right?

Yea, Jimbo is definitely gettable for barney.

agbarn meddlers are the same as the texas meddlers. They just don’t have the same amounts of money.

 

[Tide-one-on]

I think LSU may go after the Tulane coach if Lane says no

 

[Cruiser]

Would Lebby go to the barn? Would the barn go after Lebby?

 

[Bama_N_Va]

They just need the right coach.

This should get you a 7 day 14 day 35 day vacation...

I mean, its just so obnoxious to my senses...

 

[CoolBreeze]

Lane to the gators or stay put.

 

[CoolBreeze]

Would Lebby go to the barn? Would the barn go after Lebby?

If he is smart, no. If they are smart, yes.

 

[4Q Basket Case]

Lane to the gators or stay put.

Agreed. If you have your choice of jobs with eight-figure annual incomes, why would you subject yourself to the LSU or barn level of dysfunction and booster / politician meddling?

I'm fully aware that no coach is fully insulated from that stuff. But LSU, the barn, UTw, and to a lesser extent aTm, take it to an entirely different level.

I'm sure Kiffin has a tad of that in Oxford, and would in Gainesville. But nowhere near the level of LSU or the barn.

I could make logical arguments for either Oxford or Gainesville. Not the other two places.

So far, with basically another month until the regular season ends, we have eleven FBS coaches canned. There are probably at least five more at high risk of a similar fate. Either the Jimbos, Brian Kellys and Freezes get recycled or a bunch of programs are going to be overpaying for the Sumralls, Laslees, and Chadwells of G5.

Jimbo at Auburn might actually be a problem with a decent staff

He would be the same level of problem he was at A&M, maybe some less. At A&M Jimbo has unlimited resources, bought all the top recruits, and every season underperformed. Of course he did beat Bama once so he has to be considered, and to me, he actually seems exactly like the coach auburn generally hires.

This would be the year that Jimbo would resurface somewhere. Will be interesting if the money he is getting paid not to coach will keep him from entering the fray.

 

[Elefantman]

Unfortunately for all these fired coaches, the Nick Saban Coach Rehabilitation Center has closed.

 

[CoolBreeze]

I could see all these coaches getting recycled. Hottest name out there is Kiffin, who is UF or bust. Kelley to state penn, Franklin to VA tech, Fisher to the corndogs, sleeze to arky and, who did I miss?

Does this mean the “Freeze with Cheese” is off the menu at Jack’s?

I hate to reply to my post but I have a story. I pulled up to the Jack’s drive thru and looked at the burgers on sale. I love Deboer, but don’t like bbq sauce on my burger. That being said, the “Freeze with Cheese” looked good. I couldn’t bring myself to order it.
