  1. I think they’d prefer Fickell for sure, but it’s not a guarantee that he’d take that job. He rebuffed Sparty even though they offered him much more money. Penn St is a better job than MSU, but I have a hunch that Fickell might be waiting for Ohio St to open up sometime in the next decade. He really does love Cincy but who knows what he might do. That being said, if he does leave and Cincy offers Elko the job, I’m not sure he’d take it. He’s very content at A&M, and I think he’s holding out for a top 10-15 job.
  2. Now that several big jobs are open, let’s see who goes where. LSU has Scott Woodward ready to target pretty much anyone he desires while USC seems destined to hire James Franklin. Penn St would likely have Mike Elko on their shortlist if that transpires. Miami also might be open, and they’d likely go after Cristobal then Kiffin. There’s no way they’d get either with their current leadership, but it’d be interesting to watch.
  3. As of now, there’s no way Tepper would fire him. The issue is that the Panthers are going downhill fast and have no QB solution going forward. Just wait until late December/early January and see what he might do if they’re 5-12 or worse with no good QBs in the ‘22 class.
  4. I never said he was leaving on his own accord. Don’t underestimate the Panthers owner; he wants to win quickly and will make drastic moves if he doesn’t think Rhule has them moving forward.
  5. Would a national coaching changes thread be appropriate for the recruiting forum? There are some interesting scenarios that could come of Franklin leaving for USC that’d involve Rhule, Elko, etc., but I don’t care to post it on the football board.
  6. I think Michigan is the better team, but I like the intangibles of Michigan St and their home environment. I think McNamara will make a key mistake that costs them the game, and their fans will call for McCarthy to start.
  7. He’s hired good assistants and put together a great support staff (Saeed Khalif is one of the premier DPPs in college football). They play well on special teams and usually win the turnover margin battle. They have two very athletic receivers (Jayden Reed and Speedy Nailor) and a good RB in Kenneth Walker III who are explosive plays waiting to happen. That being said, they still have to play three teams who are much more talented than them. I think highly of him, and I think they’ll eke out a win on Saturday.
  8. I don’t think you should be surprised. Sark and Milwee know how much of a project Murphy is, and Brown has been just as good in camps and better on the field.
  9. No harm, I didn’t mean to be condescending back then or now. I have a different perspective on Texas football than most on this board since they aren’t my primary team.
  10. Yeah that’s true, though Miami and Tennessee have pretty weak recruiting (and coaching) staffs at the moment. Miami seems to think they can lure Cristobal there, but that seems nonsensical. Georgia is interesting because their elite play this season seems to be remedying lots of mistakes in recruiting over the offseason.
  11. I updated that in the other thread. Mullen has tanked that recruitment on his own by mishandling their QB situation. He’ll leave for the NFL in a heartbeat if some stupid franchise (Giants) goes after him.
  12. To be clear, I meant Shemar Stewart has A&M as his leader. Evan Stewart is listening to their pitch and will visit A&M this weekend, but I don’t buy their optimism on him. It’ll be interesting to see if Chris Marshall falls in love with Bama in the coming weeks as well.
  13. Who knows, I could be wrong like I probably will be on Stewart to UF (wtf is Dan Mullen doing?). It seems like they’ll get a silent from Nolen this weekend and White is likely already a silent. Stewart has A&M as his leader rn but he’s a South Florida kid so expect the unexpected often. Lucas is strange because his visits don’t line up with his supposed top schools at all.
  14. They’ll get Nolen, Enai White, and Shemar Stewart. They have a shot at getting Anthony Lucas as well.
  15. Anyone who doesn't see this has no idea what future pro talent looks like. I'd rep this 100x if I could.
  16. I agree, but I think it’ll still work out for him if he puts in the work. They’re going to beat Michigan this year.
  17. Very good choice. Brohm will get you the ball early and often if you deserve it unlike the receivers in Ludwig’s shitty offense at Utah.
  18. East Lansing sucks but Tucker is emphasizing receivers in a way Dantonio refused to even consider. Jayden Reed and Speedy Nailor are legitimate weapons. I think he’s good but it’s clear that he hears from Courtney Hawkins every day while he hears from Coleman much less often. This makes sense for him unlike Landon Samson bizarrely choosing to play in South Carolina’s offense.
  19. I think ND vs Cincy is going to be fascinating. Notre Dame is a top 20-25 team who is inferior to Cincy on paper, but September byes sometimes harm more than they help just because there's a chance any sort of early momentum is zapped and you aren't typically banged up yet. If Kelly manages to pull a rabbit out of a hat and get the W, you can start the 12-0 predictions because most of the back half of their schedule is crumbling before our eyes at the moment. Most will root for Cincy, but something about Fickell rubs me the wrong way. It might have to do with how butthurt he's been over Freeman leaving for ND, or it could be that he's an Ohio man. I'll quietly root for ND and hope they stub their toe against Georgia Tech or Stanford (though I don't care much for Shaw).
  20. Again, that fanbase is absolute trash. It's going to be really fun to keep watching them get stomped into the dirt by Alabama, UF, Georgia, and the good teams from the west they happen to be paired with in any given year. I'm glad they didn't go after Mel Tucker, that's for sure. He's using the portal about as well as any team in the nation, and he's slowly but surely locking down more MI recruits. They have legitimate speed at receiver, a great RB, and a solid OL mostly thanks to their portal acquisitions.
  21. That would be embarrassing for A&M if they lost him, considering he's a cousin of Nick Williams (analyst at A&M hired to bring in Bear and Bouie). I don't specifically follow TX recruiting as much as y'all, but it also feels like Perkins is having his doubts about A&M as well. It was always a bit weird that they've considered him a lock for months when Tyler Santucci of all people is his main recruiter.
  22. Fleck should be ashamed of himself for hiring known fraud Mike Sanford Jr. to call plays.
  23. Yes Clay Travis and the hordes of unwashed East Tennessee denizens were an embarrassment to college football as a whole when they made up that vile shit about Schiano. I really don't ever want to see them recover from this stretch of misery they're experiencing to be quite honest.
