Certainly a move up the ladder and he's a good coach


Skip Holtz leave USF?

I would think so unless he feels he would have an easier path to the BCS in a weaker conferance that's not as competitive.

Arky is certainly a better job, but why
Would they want him? I don't think it would excite anyone.

i'll never understand for the life of me why certain coaches are freaking great- as long as you dont check their win/loss record. all while les miles is the worst coach ever, with 8-5 as a disastrous year. tom o'brien has lost 7 games 3 out of the 4 years hes been at NC state. this was his banner year: 8-4. i would be pisssssed to have him anywhere near my program

feel free to throw kirk ferentz in that category too. the most brilliant 8-5 coaches money can buy


**this is not an attack on tom o'brien. merely the perception some coaches have compared to others**

That would be a step back in my opinion. O'Brien is a good coach but he hasn't done anything of great significance at NC State & he has never won a championship as a Head Coach.

The first guy Jeff Long would go after resides in Auburn right now.

This is all pointless right now though.

Is it really? ArKansas isn't that great of a job and the only reason they got Petrio is because he flamed out of the NFL and colleges didn't want to hire a guy who would bolt in three years. Which is what he would be doing if he left this year.
