That’s what I think too @Gerry Hamilton.  Va Tech is less pressure than Penn State and Franklin can do a good job.

I mean, he did a good job at Penn State, to the point where the next HC is going to have a ton of expectation on them. 

[AusMOJO]

It's crazy to me how many good jobs are open. There isn't enough big time names to go around, so some of these programs are going to need to take a shot on a guy. Traylor to Auburn is not one I was expecting, but I hope he is a serious contender. Would love to see what he can do at a big time program.

Will Morris at UNT be a candidate for any jobs? Who knows. Where will Kiffin land? Does he take the Florida/LSU job or stay with Ole Miss. 

What a fun off-season this is going to be. Not to mention that Florida State might open up soon. 

[AusMOJO]

I almost forgot, that Clemson has a chance of opening, too.

Will Texas cut 2-3 starting WR's for one? From an NIL $$$ standpoint that's what it would take IMO 

Id run with Wingo, Coleman, Mosley, Lockett, McCutchen, Lott, Stewart, Bishop, and Brown

Looks like Brian Hartline might get the Penn State head coaching gig

Really? That's a weird hire lol.

Scratch Wisconsin off the list.  Too many other head coaching vacancies for them to pull the plug here is what they're thinking.

Sorry Wisconsin, another year of 5–7

Does the name Ron Dayne mean nothing to you? Man, I'm getting old.

He hasn't panned out at Wisconsin, but I still think Fickell is a great coach. As you said, with the jobs that are open already and the ones that will open up depending on the hires for other jobs, Wisconsin wouldn't be near the top of those lists. Better the devil you know, right?

Texas and Wisconsin, the only schools with 5 Doak Walker awards

There's been some buzz in relation to Lincoln Riley and the current coaching carousel. Josh Pate mentioned he's a name to watch out for 🤔. If the buzz actually ends up being true how would that fare with USC's avalanche of a recruiting class, and is Texas still in communication with any recruits committed there with less than a month left before national signing day.

Jaimeon Winfield and Mark Bowman.  Winfield might bite if Riley leaves but Bowman probably stays no matter what if the NIL deal he got this summer holds up.  Plus Texas is in a good spot with their TE room, especially if Endries comes back next season.

Makes sense, he ran from the SEC and now he wants to run from the Big 10 lol. 

[ClubWhatever]

So Tech has a defacto owner

[NoDakHornsFan]

@Gerry Hamilton Is the rumor of Arky offering 10 mill legit? Seems insane for them to offer that amount paying Cal what they are already. More power to them if true..

Is Jedd Fisch going to get the UCLA job? Seeing he’s looking for an exit out of Washington. His family moved back to Arizona

Don’t forget Ffrench in there and they’re not going to let Livingston go. 

[Jeff Howe]

Is this the coachspeak equivalent of the dreaded vote of confidence?
