    So I guess Mike Tomlin is a no.

     

    That was my assumption when I first heard that he was a “candidate”. Why would a guy that’s been in pro football for 20+ years, who has the most stable job in all of football with the Steelers, leave to go try to rebuild USC? 

    So why did USC put his name out there? Are they not getting the action they’d like and are concerned about being the second best open job right now so they’re throwing out big impossible names to make it look like the best job out there?

    NYU Prof/talking head Scott Galloway has been on this a lot lately.

     

    I am not worried and think it will be a good thing.

    Wages will shift to marginalize education; trades wages will rise to be equivalent of bachelors degree wages and even masters wages in low demand fields.  So even tho dudes aren’t going to college as much, they will still make enough money to get laid.  Technology will fill in most of the other gaps. Continued migration to cities will mitigate other risks of depopulation.  Population may decrease but if the economic activity of each person becomes more efficient it will be offset or even be a net gain.

    I think global population will peak sometime between 2050 and 2090.  I’m bummed I’m already too old to expect to live until it becomes reasonable to expect to benefit from the huge jumps in medical technology that will dramatically increase lifespan and quality of life in old age.  But my kids lives will be a golden age.

    Wouldn’t an increase in the supply of non-degreed men increase the pool of trade candidates and eventually put downward pressure on trade wages? Or at least create inverse relationship with wages of degreed men?

    Colin, the weekend sports writer for weareiowa.com trying to gloss over the part where not just the fans but also Iowa coaches were booing and mocking hurt penn state players.

    I hope they keep him a little longer but the fans have high expectations. It’s too bad that’s the way it is now. A coach barely has time to get one full class to graduation from initial recruitment. 

    I’m of the mindset that you owe it to a coach to give him 5 years. Obviously there are exceptions, but when you are Nebraska and hire a guy like frost, I think you have to give him some time if he’s showing progress. 

    Losing to Illinois to start the season is a really bad look. 

    Getting Michigan, osu, and msu in their crossover games this year isn’t doing him any favors either.
