Chad Morris.

I knew he wouldn't be very good, but I didn't know he'd be worse than John L. Smith and Bret Bielema combined.

Chip came to UCLA randomly deciding he wanted to completely change his offense to something he literally never coached before

That's because you have a distorted view of the Big Ten.

I thought Bielema was a perfect fit for Arkansas.

No pun intended.

Is UCF a better job than Nebraska?

I thought Chip Kelly would be lighting it up at UCLA.

But he decided he doesn't want to install his Oregon system there, which I was expecting him to do. Instead he wants to run some other bullshite that is terrible.

He needs to put in that Oregon system and get some Cali speed and he'd win a lot of games in the Pac 12.

Harbaugh at Michigan

Thought he would at least have a Big 10 Champ Game appearance by now

I'm surprised by how Larry Fedora fell apart.

He took Southern Miss to 12-2, then UNC to 11-3. I thought he was a legit coach and program builder. Then, UNC spiraled to 3 and 2 win seasons and he got fired.

I thought Chris Ash could do something at Rutgers. It's a tough job sure, but they were losing by 60 points a game to the better teams in the division.

I figured he would have a number of 7-5 or 6-6 seasons with bowl game appearances. Man I was wrong

For Michigan I would say Brady Hoke, he had won at 2 spots and was a Michigan guy

Recently? Tom Herman.

I think he's already peaked. I didn't think he'd be as great as the hype, but I thought by now he'd be better than 8-4 in the Big 12.

Matt Luke at Ole Miss. Given his love for the University, I figured he'd at least have one, if not multiple, SEC championships under his belt.

Saban at Alabama to an extent. I think most expected him to be good but I didn't think he would be there for longer than 3-5 years before trying out the NFL again.

Fedora being a bust at UNC, and his replacement at USM Ellis Johnson setting the program back years surprised me.
