Our summer house is in Deadwood SD. 1200 people and 30 casinos and 5 sports books. Great weather……in the summer

No. Now they have to wait until the new coach is hired

Florida beat Tulane 33-8 in a bowl game last season Tulane would be a 7pt or so dog in the Swamp while JMU would be north of 10

Currently the worst job for a coach is UCLA. UCLA has no money as they currently pay $10 million a year as a penalty to the California system for joining the B10 Their NIL is among the worst in Power 4 Their fanbase has better things to do in LA then go to a football game

Just do not see the path as it is unlikely the SEC gets 5 bids ACC, B12, G5 and Notre Dame are 4 Aggie, Ole Miss and Georgia are virtual locks. Bama is likely in with an Iron Bowl win. OU gets in over Texas with a win. Who could Texas jump ? Ohio St, Indiana and Oregon are virtual locks. How do you keep Michigan out if they beat Ohio St? Miami is lurking

Jimmy Sexton will be working hard to get one of his guys the job. Freeman does not use Sexton as his agent

Highly doubt that as any new model would not involve the NCAA in regards to Power 4 schools.

Well they took a below .500 coach who was just fired in Kingsbury

The numbers look good. However he was sack twice and fumbled twice. His 1st pass was right in the hands of a DB but he dropped it. His lack of pocket presence was evident from the get go

You go further back after the Joe Pa issues and after the Florida run and again both are perennial Top 20. Both Penn St and Florida are Top 10-15 jobs. My ultimate point is Cignetti is from Penn and seems to be a competitor with a chip on his shoulder of which I am a fan so IMO might want to show the state what they has passed on previously(Besides IUPUI). If I had to guess, he stays at IU with a nice raise

While that would be the surface answer, I am not sure that is the case today. Both have similar recruiting rankings the last 5 years, Penn St controls a region recruiting wise(albeit a weak region), Penn St currently has better facilities and collectives might lean Penn St. If Cignetti is wanting to win right away and at 64 I would assume that AND I am from the state Florida does not seem like the slam dunk choice over Penn St

Again, unless you are from Penn and have been overlooked for decades in your home state. Florida does not have more money nor better facilities at this point although Florida is finally upgrading the Swamp next season. Current roster wise I would give Fla a slight edge although playing off campus for the next year at least may offset that. My guess is Cignetti would be interested in winning now

Michigan has a ring that will quell the fanbase for a minute

When exactly 3 active coaches actually have a ring, it is truly an unrealistic expectation especially when firing the old and bringing in the new is likely a $100+ million decision

By what metric?
