Sooooo many people on this board look like complete and utter dipshits. Especially the ones who were panicking and then melted when UF hired Billy Boy. Lmao

Agree on Kelly, i had kelly in the top 5 available. But it's interesting so far that he wanted out and none of his assistants have committed to moving on.

Jimbo would do fine in BR but I agree there were better candidates.

They are looking at going to the playoffs. Just wait until after Saturday to see how it all shakes out

That would’ve been extremely lackluster after Jimbo had just minutes before got whipped by backups and a fired coach for yet another 8-4 season.

I mean the key to all this people seemed to ignore is Woody was duck hunting a week before this even happened. We all thought that meant Riley was in the bag but it was actually BK. Anyone who thinks this admin scrambled as a last minute hire is ignorant. He bamboozled the shite out of not only media but his own boosters he has to deal with. Ultimate troll.

Yeah the deal was done for a while. Which I couldn’t bring myself to believe due to Alleva ptsd.

Gundy annually throws his name in coaching searches. It’s his hobby.

Yeah I think OSU just rolls their eyes at this point

I believe it was reported he reached out to LSU in 2016 as well

This statement, if true, is not doing Scott any favors.

They are still Alive for the playoffs. Make no mistake the timing of it could have easily turned off some coaches who would have been willing to come with him.

not really, its fairly close to what happened with Nick when they promoted Bobby. If ND hired Fickell or an outsider and no one came, it'd be one thing. They have job security and don't have to uproot their families.

Thank God we avoided that fraud Tucker. I have no idea why he was considered in the first instance.


how many people that say Tucker is a fraud would have gladly accepted Aranda? Both you are betting on the come as the HC record is thin.

I am thrilled he made a terrific hire, but I don’t understand his man crush on Fisher at all.

No sympathy for all the people calling coaches money and searches unsustainable.

All of those people from ADs, presidents, boards, agents, tv execs made this bed
