2019-20 college football coaching carousel

This is 300% correct.

Arkansas doing this is the college football equivalent of "bad ownership". They're the Cleveland Browns of the SEC.

A talented coach should be very wary of working for bad ownership. Any good employee, for that matter.

 

Arkansas's argument is Bret had an obligation in his contract to seek comparable employment amd offset. He's working below standard pay as an nfl assistant. They think they have a case.

 

Two year Bama intern Butch Jones says hold my beer.

 

I'd love to see Bielema argue that it makes more rational sense for a college to justify paying an assistant coach half a mil.

 

He wasn't obligated to find comparable employment. He was only obligated to seek it. Perhaps he sought and discovered that he could "only" work for the six-time Super Bowl champions.
Although the pay isn't comparable, how many other gigs pay what an SEC head coach's job pays? Not many. It's not like the guy's intentionally coaching Division II ball and playing golf.

They have no argument.

 

Morris was hired by boosters before the current AD was in office. I’ll be interested to see how much free rein he’s got for this hire.

 

Didn't say it was valid, just that is what they are claiming. I think they also have an issue with his lowball pay in the league.

 

I'll find the tweet here in a bit, but Dari Nowkah is now on the Leach to Fayetteville bandwagon.

 

Whether it was a very long press release or a long statement to The Athletic, it was clearly the longest statement about coach retention that I've ever read. The Athletic story said Vandy people are meeting with architecture firms shortly for preliminary discussions about some new facility. From my experience, that means three to five years before you're actually working in the new place. And that's a prerequisite for success. Nobody decent is taking that gig now once he realizes the groundbreaking will roughly coincide with your third straight 3-9 season, i.e. perfect time for his successor.

If academics mattered, Vandy and University-6 would trade leagues.

 

D'Antonio just kicked BYH' dead cat across the room.
He loses to Rutgers and/or Maryland, they can't bring him back.

 

Malzahn and Kiffin are the names floating around the most among the big boosters.
