EVA Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 26 minutes ago, Pete said: Bielema has been FE'd at Arkansas. Reportedly fired as he was leaving the field, before he even made it back to the locker room. I didn't think anyone could trump Kiffin being left at the airport, but there you have it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, leaving Wisconsin for a tougher job in the SEC was basically career suicide. Meanwhile, the Badgers just keep on winning 10ish games every year.

Well, he's a northeast guy, actually. But I imagine going back to the Pac 12 would be more in his comfort zone than having to start from scratch building a program in the southeast. Knows the lay of the land and whatnot. He was also never a fan of the recruiting game in Oregon, and if you're not willing to recruit from dusk till dawn, you're not going to win in the SEC. Problem for Florida is, if they're not going to bite the bullet on Mullen, they're going to get stuck hiring Kevin Sumlin 2.0 in guys like Scott Frost or Mike Norvell, and they'll be back doing this same thing in 4 years.

Brian Fowler Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Not a bad consolation prize for losing the Kelly sweepstakes, but leaving for another school in the same conference is always extra scummy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham is a serial shithead who left two schools (Rice and Pitt) after one year... the former just days after signing an extention, the latter via texting the director of football to share with his players. I hope karma keeps kicking his ass down the road for years to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 The Schiano hiring (or at least rumored hiring) is going about as well as you would imagine And yes I appreciate the irony of Haynesworth bitching about folks not taking football seriously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Well, it took Florida three tries, but it looks like they're finally gonna get it right and hire the guy they should've hired 7 years ago. That Schiano hire is catastrophic for Tennessee. Might as well shutter the program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy made Rutgers a credible program while he was there so he's not a bad coach. Do people judge Sabin for his NFL flop? If people hate this hire because of his Ped State past I 1000% agree. If it's because they don't think he can coach I totally disagree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Well hiring Schiano isn't the best idea at all, there are two major problems with their argument: 1. I don't get why they are trying to connect this with the Penn State situation. I mean the list of people who covered up for Paterno is long as hell. Is this some way a jab at Alabama? 2. Apparently the name Bruce Pearl just disappeared from Volunteer history because if it wasn't for guys like Pitino he would one of the scummier head coaches in years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabremike Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Read the article @happjack linked to. ANYONE who helped cover up what happened at Ped State should be blackballed from the sport period. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
