Ron lost to KU three times in a row.  A fireable offense for a football coach without any other factors being included.

Now I just want to know if any coach since like 2000 lost 3 times to KU and kept their job.
Title: Re: Jimbo
Post by: catastrophe on October 26, 2022, 02:57:57 PM
According to Wikipedia:

Dan McCarney (ISU): since 2000, he lost three times to KU (2003, 2005, 2006). Fired in 2006.
Paul Rhoads (ISU): lost twice to KU (2009, 2014). Fired in 2015.
Matt Campbell (ISU): only lost this year to KU. Seat is getting warm.
Gary Patterson (TCU): only lost to KU in 2018. Fired 2021.
Guy Morriss (Baylor): lost twice to KU in 2003 and 2007, although he avoided playing the Jayhawks every year thanks to divisions (schedulemakers). Fired in 2007.

Realignment and divisional play messes up the stats a bit going back to 2000 (and after realignment KU was so historically bad I don't think they beat any team 3 times), but so far it looks like 3 is the max any coach in the Big 12 has been allowed in this millenium.

At that time, he'd only lost to ku twice.  It was 3 games later when he lost to ku for the third time and got told his ass was canned but could finish the year (which looking back, was kind of weird).

A&M is clearly a disaster right now, but I'm not buying the reasoning for those three players being suspended. It was widely reported that whatever the suspendable offense was, it was something that happened in the locker room after the south carolina game. I might end up looking like a fool, but I absolutely don't believe the players were smoking weed in the visiting locker room after the game ended.

The implausible is whipping out a pen or joint and passing it around with 75 other dudes and another 25 coaches and staff in an incredibly confined space during a time of increased sensibility and anger. This is the equivalent of smoking weed in your boss's office while they're giving you a quarterly review, that isn't going particularly great. I get these dudes are 18 or 19 years old, but that would be way beyond bold and stupid.

So it’s probably only a matter of time before a BMD clique at A&M starts up some kind of sordid rumor about Jimbo.

Yeah I think she was running around but I don't think it was with FSU players, it was some dude in Tallahassee and supposedly another dude who played tennis at Florida.

Too lazy to look it up but I'm guessing Sumlin was top 10/15ish every year which should be the baseline for the 2nd best school in the most talent rich state. Jimbo supposedly pulled the GOAT class of all time last year but it doesn't look like many of them will make it 3 or 4 years.

I'll choose to believe that Jimbo will donate a substantial portion of that money to good causes.

You have not seen little dick energy until you see A&M react to having Texas in the same conference again.

Damn, I miss the Pirate. Remember when he called them the "fake army"? Anyone read his book (Swing Your Sword)? Any good?

This is going to be a fun search.

They should hire Harbaugh as interim.

And it's aTm so you know it's almost certainly true.  I wish them nothing but the worst.

For a short bit when aTm first came into the B12 I nibbled a little on the Corp of Cadets mythos.

Then I learned the real story of that Fake Army (with some exceptions).

Then I learned their matching band has been playing the same songs and doing the same show forever.

Then I learned about all their weird ass traditions.

So this was like, in your late 40's?
