    Life is good when you have the consensus #1 team, and you can still hand-wring like a bunch of Nancys! :D

    Totally agree, Scott. Their #1 ranked team has 2 NFL receivers, a potential NFL QB, a defense and offensive line stocked with NFL prospects and their this week’s whine selection is “Our Running Backs Aren’t Averaging 7.8 Yards Per Carry”.

    My LSU golfing buddy sent me an article on the Aggies getting caught in fake injury scam vs Arkansas and became the first SEC team to be fined 50K for it. :cool::D:rolleyes:

    I think a good case can be made for the Buckeyes and Ryan Day being the top coach/program in college right now.

    One guys take on the Coaching Carousel that is upcoming.

    Especially when you consider that churn that will happen at the lower P4 schools and G5 schools when their coaches get scooped up by bigger P4 schools.

    OPEN
    ACC - Stanford; VA Tech
    B1G - Penn State; UCLA
    Big 12 - OK State
    SEC - Arkansas; Florida

    COULD OPEN via firing
    ACC - Cal (Justin Wilcox); FSU (Mike Norvell); NC State (Dave Doeren); UNC (Bill Belichick)
    B1G - Maryland (Mike Locksley); Michigan (Sherrone Moore); Michigan State (Johnathan Smith); Southern Cal (Lincoln Riley); Wisconsin (Luke Fickell)
    Big 12 -
    SEC - Auburn (Hugh Freeze), Kentucky (Mark Stoops), LSU (Brian Kelly); South Carolina (Shane Beamer)

    COULD OPEN via coach hired away
    ACC - GA Tech (Brent Key); Syracuse (Fran Brown)
    B1G - Minnesota (PJ Fleck); Nebraska (Matt Rhule)
    Big 12 - ASU (Kenny Dillingham); Iowa State (Matt Campbell); Utah (Kyle Whittingham)
    SEC - Missouri (Eli Drinkwitz); Ole Miss (Lane Kiffin); Vanderbilt (Clark Lea)

    I see that Ogeron, and Fisher are ready to jump back in. They must have spent their buyout money.

    Supposedly, Florida has offered Kiffin the job. $13M/yr is mentioned. He is considering it and is even trying to keep the Ole Miss players on task with the distraction.
