I can’t imagine anybody being ignorant enough to hire him.

He’s retired. He’ll be on tv in the next few years.

Why the hell would he want to coach ever again when he gets to collect $70m+ ???

No way. He’s horrible on tv. He talks too fast.

Why would he want one?

Jimbo discovered designer cowboys boots. He might be tapped.

With that massive buyout, he can retire and go live out his days comfortably in the mountains somewhere.

But if really wants to coach, there's a G5 team somewhere who is willing to hire him quickly. Either that or he joins a P5 contender as the OC.

He really should go coach West Virginia in a few years... would be a cool story.

WV. They'd probably hire him and he'd be a fan-favorite, no?

If I was Jimbo, i'd just retire from coaching. The money we gave him is generational wealth.

Money aside, shamed coaches like Jimbo and Les Miles have very large egos and I think both would like to have coaching success again. Jimbo is still young enough, but I think Les is around 70.

Jimbo is 58. He could get plenty of lower tier P5 jobs if he wanted to give it another go.

What is this year 6 for Mack at North Carolina? Similar resume. NC coach who flamed out. Yes, Mack Brown has a previous connection to UNC, but I still think it shows there's a market for these guys.

Les got me too’d, regardless of age no one is hiring that dude. I don’t know if he’s even been seen or heard from in years.

Jimbo may pop back up but I don’t think he’s getting a gig that will give him a legit shot at another NC, so he may be content avoiding what CFB has become and count his sweet A&M cash

West Virginia would have made sense had Neal Brown not pulled out a nine win season. Seems like he's on solid footing for at least a couple more seasons.
