Cobra Commander Posted November 26, 2023 Author Share Posted November 26, 2023 looking at Wikipedia and here's the list of various coaching openings: Michigan State, Texas A&M, Boise State, Mississippi State, Syracuse and Oregon State opened up during the season. Some of these were more noted than others. Oregon State's HC goes to Michigan State. The end of season moves have been: Brady Hoke retiring at San Diego State, and also New Mexico fired their head coach to go along with Indiana/Houston/UTEP.

RIPPA Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 It appears that A&M is hiring Duke’s Mike Elko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert C Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 At least Elko makes sense, if it's really him. Knows the place and half the players. Younger coach and probably won't have an insane contract. Might actually try to run modern schemes on both sides of the ball. Maybe he doesn't work out, but at least he has a shot. Stoops made no sense at all. Why pay $75 million to fire Jimbo, then hire his clone? We'd have ended up paying both of em not to coach in a few years. And Stoops would've been at $10 million per year. I'd love to know what really happened last night, but I doubt the truth ever comes out. My willingness to believe anything said on the subject is inversely proportional to how convinced the person saying it is that they're right. Craziest story I saw was the board of regents agreed on a target, but Bjork went rogue and tried to hire Stoops on his own. Figure I can rule that one out, as Bjork hasn't been fired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen several different people say that Bjork did basically go rogue with a small faction of donors. So it’s possible he just hasn’t been fired yet. Elko’s success will depend on his OC hire. But he’ll be keeping on the bagman/DL coach (supposedly a condition for any hire). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra Commander Posted November 27, 2023 Author Share Posted November 27, 2023 Delaware being in FBS means that the states that I can think of without FBS teams are Maine, NH, VT, RI, ND, SD, MT, and AK. Of those, Vermont and Alaska are the only ones without FCS level football. Meanwhile the Montana/Dakotas schools are at the top of FCS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra Commander Posted November 27, 2023 Author Share Posted November 27, 2023 Considering that Delaware is the first FCS school to pay a $5M fee to join FBS, they might have to schedule Michigan a few times to pay that fee off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
