Manny Diaz is the better choice. DB is like 100 years old.

I doubt he was a serious candidate there. I think all the interview did was ensure that Harbaugh tells his AD to give DB an extension and a fat raise. Wouldn’t surprise me at all to see Michigan announce a multi-year extension and make DB one of the highest paid co-ordinators in the college game and offer him something like $2 million a year.
His D looked pretty crappy against the Badgers.

The change at GT will be interesting to watch.  I still think GT needs some kind of gimmick to compete (beyond being 7-5 in the ACC perhaps).

Playing straight up against the Bigs in their neighborhood is not going to work well.

Apparently the Packers are interested in Fitzgerald
The AD who hired Fitzgerald as HC at Northwestern is now the CEO of the Packers.

Yep. Lots of pressure down there. The question is.. who wants that job? A fading helmet school with an off-campus stadium and a fanbase that expects Jimmy Johnson to walk through the door.

Wouldn't mind some Mario Cristobal to Miami distractions over the next 24 hours.

I posted earlier that I felt a bit bad for CMR.  Yeah, he made a ton of money, but I suspect his feelings for his career are a disappointment.

When I retired, I suddenly felt both relieved and disappointed, I had not expected the latter.  I made enough money to be set, but looking back I saw I had not really achieved what I thought I could have done with better effort and focus and maybe some common sense.  It had turned into "just a job" for me, rather boring, and I had invested a lot in getting to that point only to have it not really amount to much.

Blech.  I'm over it now.

Serious Question:  Can private schools like Miami really be considered a helmet school?  I realize USC and Notre Dame are private as well but I always thought of helmet schools as large public universities that were successful in football.
