Report: Al Golden is drawing "strong interest" for a current FBS opening

 

[Brave Volunteer]

I can't believe Stoops hasn't taken a better job by now. He has to know he's taken Kentucky as far as they can go.

Texas Tech coaching search: Oklahoma DC Alex Grinch set to interview for Red Raiders vacancy, report says

As for Grinch, he spent the 2018 season under Urban Meyer at Ohio State before going to Oklahoma just one year later. He also spent time on staff at Washington State, where he was also listed as a potential head coaching candidate after the Cougars parted ways with head coach Nick Rolovich last month

At least the Vols are off that crazy carousel this year.

Seems anticlimactic

Seems anticlimactic

As did our hire of Josh. Sometimes the best things come in anticlimactic packages. Could be a win.

@BUBear wont like it but come on TCU hire PrimeTime.

Sets up perfectly for him to turn that into the FSU gig down the road.

Possibly so or it could become another one of his clown shows.

Next coach on the chopping block?

Washington: Head coach Jimmy Lake has been suspended for Saturday's game without pay following his sideline incident involving a player last weekend, and last night he issued an apology.

[Dudleys87]

Well I guess those firings and apology went over like his South Carolina gameplan.

Spurrier won at Duke; Purdue has been less than impressive nearly every year under Brohm. Outside of this season, which still has three games left in it, his best record was 7-6. He would be another Dan Mullen type hire

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

One thing Brohm has going for him is recruiting and his track record against the top programs. Has 3 double digit wins against Top 5 teams since he's been to Purdue and if you can recruit guys like Rondale Moore & David Bell to Purdue them imagine what you could do at UF. I do think UF wants to see more overall wins and results before a hire like Brohm but his name is becoming hot again.

Everyone remember how people were making fun of Tennessee’s list of candidates? But now look who’s after them! The national media disdain for Tennessee is so obvious, but that’s also a admission of relevance! Do you consider any of those coaches “home run hires? Now? Last year? 3 years ago? If those are the best LSU, USC, etc can do, then we must feel pretty positive where we are right now all things considered! All the losers (Dave Hooker) that assume Heupel will automatically go to OU someday fail to see or understand that possibly he may NOT want to go back there!

Keep an eye on Mel Tucker and Mario Cristobal as coaching carousel heats up

Seems like a weird hire for Georgia Southern. Haven't they been a triple-option school for nearly forever?
