    Good. Cancel FB altogether at that prison prep academy for all I care.

    But if they don't, Dan Hawkins is available......but I'd rather see the Virus know as Neuheisel show up and fail at another program.....maybe you guys can get Kiffin at a bargain price......where the hell is GONZO when you need to beat him......

    Very shocking that he was fired. He just got an extension of his contact. I do wonder who they will go after, it's still an excellent job with lots of talent in South Fla that wants to play for Miami.

    RR must be next....from CBSSportsline:

    "Michigan was out of its league Saturday, but that's familiar territory for a program that, under Rodriguez, has gone an astonishing 1-13 against the top five programs in the Big Ten: Ohio State, Michigan State, Wisconsin, Iowa and Penn State. Not that Michigan has been all that good against the rest of the Big Ten, going 5-5 vs. the murder's row of Indiana, Northwestern, Minnesota, Purdue and Illinois."

    IMHO...
    Randy Shannon is a very good coach and he won't be unemployed long. There are several programs; both college and pro, who would love to have him.

    <t>with Shannon gone wacth for the U to revert back to "Thug U". I thought the guy did a good job of getting the program back on solid footing in terms of culture, academics etc. Didn't see any on field brawls breaking out since he became coach.</t>

    I know a currently unemployed coach that will work for a box of Little Debbies a day!
