Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

Sure.  John Mackovic and David McWilliams are also not currently working as football coaches.  They're only 79 and 77 respectively, so they've got a few more years in them.

If they wait the season Sark will be available 

The old Blue Bloods are showing some rust, USC, Texas, Nebbie ....  Do you think they will be "back" any time soon?

Bama and Ohio State are clearly solid, ND is sort of relevant as is OU.

I suspect Nebbie is "gone".  Texas "should" be able to get back, I don't know about USC.

Texas is pretty much in the same boat as Nebraska already, and Oklahoma will be in that boat as well once they join the SEC.

That's young.

I think USC still has a ton of upside.  It's got to be at least as attractive to California recruits as Oregon, and Oregon's pretty good again.  

All it takes is the right coach, but finding the right coach isn't always easy.  Even Alabama went through three duds before hiring Saban.

Perfect gig for Matt Campbell. He'd go 10-2 every year, with one loss to Notre Dame, and one loss that costs him a conference title. 

Even though he can't beat his rival, it doesn't matter as much at places where the biggest rivalry game is OOC; as is the case at both Iowa St and USC. His inability to win a conference title is not as big of a deal in the CFP era either, particularly at a place like USC where you can rack up style points pretty easily.

Too bad you don't have any stones you could've made abundle.Now take a deep breath - for 20 minutes 😜

Texas & USC both have huge upside. The problem is they either keep hiring the wrong guys or they keep firing guys too soon.

Nick Saban's, Pete Carroll's, and Urban Meyer's don't grow on trees. You can't realistically compete for a national title year in year out unless you have a guy like that at the helm. I don't care what program you're at. You need insane winners at the top with insane drive to keep it going. Newsflash: those guys are needles in haystacks.

Ryan Day inherited a Ferrari and while I'm still very high on him- looks like they might have a little hiccup this year if they keep giving up 30+ PPG. Clemson was an anomaly and I think after losing two transcendent players at the most important position in sports in Watson & Lawrence they will start to slowly fade to black.
