202x Coaching Carousel

[Pete]

The SEC gives zero fucks, man. smh

[ben ji]

Urban and Hugh Freeze aren't even in the same ball park. Freeze isn't much better than Briles.

Yeah, urban had some shady guys as players and got a picture taken of him with a 20 something girls grinding on his leg.

Freeze got his university a 2 year bowl ban for giving out bags (totally legal now) but blamed it on the previous coach....then the previous coach sued him for defamation and they found out freeze had been calling hookers from his ole miss issued cell phone for years.....Not to mention the whole DM'n someone who is suing your university for sexual assault to stick up for the AD

These are different

[wetwillie]

I see we aren’t going to talk about the Zach Smith (employed by Meyer at both UF and tOSU) domestic abuse in regards to Urban Meyer. 

[MakeItRain]

This thing basically done spinning now?

Did Stanford hire someone?

I think the openings are Cinci, Colorado, Stanford. Didn’t think any of them would nab a sitting P5 coach.

Boy do I have some news for you.

oscar Feldman works for Urban Meyer, understand that when I give you his list, in order.

ready?


Matt Campbell, Iowa State head coach
The biggest name I think will get serious consideration for the job is Campbell. He’s an Ohio native who starred at Mount Union before getting the Toledo job, where he was excellent. He led Iowa State to its best season ever, finishing No. 9 in 2020. The past two seasons Iowa State has tailed off, going 13-14, but no one in the business doubts how good a coach he is. Would Campbell think the timing is right to leave Ames for Cincinnati? We’re not so sure. He’s got a good situation in Iowa, but Ohio is home and he recruits the state very well. There is a lot more talent locally for him to mine.

The rest of the list, in order
Gino Gudidugli
Jim Leonhard
Alex Golesh
Brian Hartline
Jesse Minter
Sheronne Moore
Matt House

Please please please let them pick Campbell, I love chaos

[MakeItRain]

Also as far as other openings, remember this is just the first cycle. There's always a guy or two who gets fired late, retires late, goes to the NFL, etc. etc. etc. There's no way the Cincinnati and Stanford openings will be the end of the cycle.

Don't forget perving out on middle school girls

How can you go from this man giving this speech after an interim run (not saying Cadillac Williams should have been brought in), and then turn around and hire a human like Freeze?

[MadCat]

The prerequisite for coaching in the SEC is coaching in the SEC

It's interesting that they made Cadillac the interim head coach given he wasn't a coordinator nor has he ever been. Cadillac's first year as a RB coach at Auburn his OC was a 29 year old named Kenny Dillingham. Dillingham has just been named the head coach of Arizona State at just 32 years old and 7 years, 5 damn schools in those 7 years. Cadillac has earned the right to be put on a similar track, let's see if that happens.

They’re saying Williams will be retained on staff. 

[DQ12]

someone mentioned dave clawson for stanford.  not sure if he'd take that job, but seems at least possible.

i really like dave clawson.

[wetwillie]

No way Currie let’s him leave

[Skipper44]

a successful coach like Clawson would be crazy to take the Stanford job unless the admin finds a way to get in the portal game like the rest of CFB

[Rage Against the McKee]

They’re saying Williams will be retained on staff.

Why would he want to be on Hugh Freeze's staff?

[Kid In the Hall]

Access to escorts paid by the state?

His job is infinitely better than Stanford. I love Stanford, I hope all three of my kids go there, they are not close to being equipped to being able to compete in Power 5 football in 2022. They aren't players in nil, at all, and I can't see that changing anytime soon. They can't take transfers, which is crazy. I heard on the solid verbal that USC football took more transfers for 2022 than Stanford took for their entire university.

They are also not going to pay Clawson or any other current P5 head coach.

[sonofdaxjones]

Stanford has a football program because they need one, but I don't think there's a less vested fanbase and constituency in big time college athletics.

[wetwillie]

Wasn’t Shaw making over 8 million a year?  I think the pay isn’t the problem it’s the ability remain competitive given the constraints.

[DQ12]

ok ok ok i was just saying a name i heard associated with it.  get off my BACK!

[Shooter Jones]

Campbell to Cincy would be amazing for the conference.

[wetwillie]

An ISU coaching search would be hella fun for me personally

[chum1]

If I was an Iowa State fan, I'd be praying for someone else to hire Campbell.

[ChiComCat]

If I was an Iowa State fan, I'd be praying for someone else to hire Campbell.

I don't think that he's as good as they think he is.  I also don't think that they'll do any better.

That's a bingo - look at their history. They've had one coach leave there with a record above .500 in the last 80 years. Arguably, McCarney is their all-time third best coach (behind oscar and Campbell) and he was 56-85 overall and 27-68 in league play (5 bowls in 11 years and one season with more than seven wins).
