Gonzo Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 (edited) 14 hours ago, EVA said: This is a trend to watch for. As the money gets bigger and bigger at the P5 level, I think you’re going to see more G5 HCs get hired as P5 coordinators. And obviously Colorado and the PAC-12 are not even close to the top of the food chain when it comes to the money they can offer assistant coaches. Another rumor is that Sanders wants Mike Zimmer to be his defensive coordinator. They go back to their days in Dallas when Zimmer was the DC and Sanders was still a player. Sanders hired him as an analyst after the Vikings fired him last year. Zimmer doesn't strike me as the "college coach" type, but I wouldn't mind seeing him take this job, to be honest.

EVA Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Slovis and Daniels each making a one-year simultaneous pit stop in Backyard Brawl country is such a fascinating, weird bit of trivia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Supposedly he was planning to go to Oregon State this year but wanted a new house and they wouldn't give it to him. So he went to West Virginia and got about a half a million this year from "boosters". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted December 8, 2022 Author Share Posted December 8, 2022 The NCAA granted all University of Virginia players with expiring eligibility an extra year It is a small number of guys. One has already declared for the draft. Another just finished his 6th year and is playing in the Senior Bowl so neither of them will be using it.

Clearly he can recruit but how about actual coaching? That's why you hire good assistants and coordinators. Barry Switzer used to spend halftime of OU games calling recruits especially if they were laying a beating on someone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean guess he wasn't SWAC after all He gave half his pay back to the university. He got big business to invest and improve the facilities. He got Jackson State on TV. He increased game revenue. He is leaving the situation in a far better than what he inherited. Maybe he will inspire others to go that route. I think if he stuck it out for another year he could have got a better job offer. He did more in 3 years to elevate HBCU than anyone else did in the last 3 decades.

EVA Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 So here’s an interesting development: Luke Fickell is bringing in Phil Longo from North Carolina to be his OC. Longo is an Air Raid guy.

Wisconsin has been hamstrung by their offense for several years. Fickell comes from the Ohio Spread lineage so an identity change seems obvious.

Cobra Commander Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 All the “Jason Garrett has never coached in college reactions” and I still think that Todd Haley coaching a college team despite never playing college football would be an amazing disaster. Just imagine turning your kids over to Todd Haley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 This is like one of those small court cases where the the verdict can have huge ramifications down the line. If the NCAA were to abolish the rule against single-sport conferences, that would clear a lot of path for interested parties to pursue a CFB Super League down the line.
