2018 Coaching Changes thread

[MrNubbz]

ND fits better in the B1G geographically, but the B1G probably wants ND more than the other way around.  If ND is pressured into joining a conference, they'll most likely become full ACC members.  It's usually an easier conference to win, and the recruiting grounds are more fertile.  

Make no mistake, I was not knocking Harbaugh.  He's realistically the best coach UM can get, and he's got the potential to do something special, but he really hasn't proven anything yet (other than what he did at Stanford and San Fran)

Believe me if the East Coast was planted next to that Diva Charade they'd loathe the self absorbed idjits

[MaximumSam]

damn thats a lot

Is it though? Seems like commensurate pay for a guy who has been very successful and won a national championship.

[rolltidefan]

Maybe some. I feel bad for the true fans (you being one).

as a rival, it's been fun and funny. as a fan of cfb and a fan of a team that's been through similar times, i know it sucks and hurt for the fans who suffer through it.

Who is FSU going after? 

Not that this has traction, but I heard that James Franklin was a target. 

With Moorhead gone, and the leaving of offensive weapons, it's possible.

Hey, if you got it, spend it. 
I think it's the length of contract that's more the wow. 10 years? A&M has a boatload of money, they can spend it how they want.
I don't think the guy is worth $7.5 million a year but hey, that's just me. National Titles are kinda overrated. A lot of that is scheduling breaks, where they put you in the pre-season polls, bounces going your way. 
People get all crazy over the national title=great coach thing. Kind of like Super Bowls = great QB. People try telling me Eli Manning is a HoF QB because he's won 2 Super Bowls. I laugh at those people. Eli has never been anything but a solid, above average QB. He belongs nowhere near the HoF. 
I think Jimbo is a heckuva coach. I'd put him in the Lloyd Carr category. Heckuva a coach. Elite of the elite? Not in my opinion.

I've read Willie Taggart and Justin Fuente are their top candidates

[Drew4UTk]

$SU should go for Norvelle.  they'll forget who Fisher was in two games.

That's just like your opinion man.Just win baby and he did on the biggest stage.He was hot when he had to be

Eh. He's obviously a good QB. At times he could really be a heckuva QB. I don't get the people that trash him. I don't get the people that praise him either though. He just is what he is. An above average, good QB. Hall of Fame should only be reserved for the absolute elite. Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers. I'd even throw Phillip Rivers in there. He was in the same draft as Ben and Eli and if you're talking about just their abilities as individual players- Rivers was better than either of them, playing for a joke of an organization.

I'd rather FSU targets Franklin and not Frost.
Anyone but Frost

Hearing Frost to Nebraska tomorrow. 
Taggart to FSU. 

[Mdot21]

Hearing Frost to Nebraska tomorrow.
Taggart to FSU.

even Oregon reporters think he's going to FSU.
If only Chip Kelly waited a couple more weeks....he'd been able to go home.

[FearlessF]

either tomorrow after the UCF game or Sunday early afternoon in Lincoln

earlier the better for all parties

I hope he tells his team before they take the field tomorrow, win big, and then let the masses know after the game tomorrow

hopefully, Frost doesn't get a call from Oregon
