Sports Illustrated has written an article and Dusty and Danny talked about it this morning on SXM College Sports Radio (Ch. 84). The OU loss is probably helping this along, but the only scenario where I see him leaving is if he loses to Auburn and the Bama administration sees it as a good chance to unload him without paying his buyout. However, in this new CFB environment, nothing surprises me.

SEC Coach Climbing the List of Favorites for Penn State Job

Penn State is in the second month of its search to replace James Franklin, who has moved on to Virginia Tech.

It might be a better cultural fit tbh. I've heard that the focus was on Chesney from James Madison, but then I've also heard they were interested in Brian Hartline. Honestly, I'm ready for this silly season to come to an end. It's gotten to the point where it feels like stalking, with family members being tracked visiting their kids on campus. Potential houses going on, or off the market. Tracking planes, trains, or automobiles like some weirdos.

Gat, looking at the photo, I understand why you moved to Arizona. You must have been living in northern Florida, right?😁

(Great movie; one of John Candy's best.)

UCLA is supposedly close to doing a deal with Chesney. But having coached at Holy Cross and now JMU, would he be a fit on the West Coast? Everyone's looking for the next Cignetti. Chesney needs another 14 years of seasoning.

With Jimmy Sexton as his agent, the agent ADs most love to hate, DeBoer will be shopped. Among many others, Sexton represents Saint Nick and James Franklin, and drum roll, Lane Kiffin.

If nothing else, there will be a daily carousel of coaching rumors.

Favorite emerges for UCLA football head coach job

The UCLA Bruins are among the football programs looking for a new head coach, and a favorite has emerged for the job. BetOnline.ag has listed odds for who

Eli ain't coming!

Congrats, coach, on this, and also your scathing comments directed at the Playoff Committee and the selection process.

Search and you will find Eli taking a flamethrower to the entire selection process, including the stupidity of having rankings reveals before the final ranking. This take is probably not bouncing too high in Bristol. 😁

With 9 conference games next season, I think SEC coaches might join Eli and switch to being in favor of the B1G's 16-team, AQ playoff format, including playing the champ game in the final weekend of the regular season.
