Relax…they just beat georgia last week.

Agreed...Kitna's not a guy I'm rooting for either.

Some weird play calling from bama. I love Becks decision making hope he keeps that up.

Multiple things can be true at the same time. UK's can be good but Beck was still awful against them. He missed throws that had nothing to do with the defense.

Another year of college sure...but there are questions about how Brian Kelly uses him. A transfer is probably best for him.

Good not great...not complaining about wins.

Why not? As long as the buy out checks clear no hard feelings. Why someone one would take advice from someone they were firing…that’s a different question. Or maybe the did reach out to lane though his agent and got a no.

They could have Charlie Ward in his prime and would still be bad. O-line can't block, D-line can't get into the backfield. They are so bad on both lines it makes it hard to evaluate everyone else. Transfer portal is great for supplementing a roaster not constantly rebuilding it. Ask Deion.

Seems like decades ago that Stoops was taking shots at Calipari for saying UK was a basketball school.

Clearly non of the voters watched the penn state vs bowling green game

Brian Kelly = Butch Jones....this guy is a clown. He needs to figure out why LSU can't hand the ball to a running back and gain yards. 2 years in a row running game is absent.

I thought both ND and A&M looked bad last week so this isn't a crazy outcome. NIU should be higher that ND in the polls now right? Joking nutty polls will move ND to 13/14 and leave NIU out.

All of these predictions just like pre season rankings are comical at best. At least wait 3/4 games into the season. Look and laugh but otherwise you are right your opinion and her opinion hold the same weight. Except some one was silly enough to pay her for hers.

Makes more sense for them than trying to get into the SEC.

Mostly agree. That said I think that if you delete the word Tennessee from Kara Lawson's resume she would still be a strong candidate. WNBA, USA Olympic Basketball(as a player and coach), NBA assistant coach, Duke. That said if you find someone with no links and a strong resume pay them.

Other sources say it's 90% of the remaining value with no mitigations for new employment. If he can win 9/10 games a year for the first three years none of it matters they will rip this up and give him a new deal because that's what schools do now. Next deal will likely be fully guaranteed.

Silly move…this is how these schools get themselves into binds. He had 3 years left on the current deal. Would have made sense to at least finish this upcoming season.

Hope he mailed Nick a thank you card. Also last summer dude was on the hot seat maybe Texas should have waited one more season before extending

It's not the SEC experience that matters so much as familiarity with recruiting in the area. He hasn't spent time recruiting the same guys. So all of the relationships will have be built very quickly that puts him behind on the next two cycles. It's was different with Saban and LSU because 1) Saban did recruit some southeast players while at MSU 2) At the time with LSU he could just focus on getting kids that lived in state and do well. It's easier to build those relationships with high school coaches 100 miles or less away. Coaching at Bama you have to build relationship with kids and high school coaches in Georgia, Florida and the other surrounding states.

Half the names listed don't make sense. Freeman and Lanning just got head coaching jobs and haven't won anything yet. James Franklin can't win. Deboer has everything he needs at Washington and no connection to the southeast or recruiting in this area. That leaves Mike and Dabo or someone from the NFL. A couple of them might used the opening to get a pay bump.

He did bama a favor by waiting on the portal entry date to pass.

Not surprising. I thought this year would be his last. He's old and rich. Why stay? Also avoid the embarrassment all the others who stayed to longed faced.

Built up tension. Nobody is happy being forced to go to Myrtle Beach.

The kid's uncle is the o-line coach at Nebraska. Can't blame the kid for giving it some real consideration if not completely flipping.

Bobby as head coach of Arkansas was 34-17. Sam 23-25...this is a no win situation for Sam. If they improve he won't get any credit and if they don't he likely hired his replacement. He's just reminding people how much better Bobby was at his job than he is.

I wonder how much input Sam had in this. Also I wonder if he will make it to the end of next year.

He had a phone call with Dabo and this is the messaging they both agreed to.

To be fair it comes down to players and time. Some of these guys are smart enough to handle switching signs week to week. You would end up with busted plays or coverages. Also keep in mind that TCU had several weeks to prep.

Yes, keep losing, way to show them. Jimbo feels the same way. Why win? Lose and see who sticks around. It's the only way to know who your real friends are.

nope...it will be mid season next year. Day after the Texas game they will bite the bullet on that buyout. Take away Jamis Wiston and that dude would be coaching Indiana State.
