Story says he's not fired, just not returning.

Meet the happiest man in America....

There is a thead under FBS week 10 talking about Fulmer.

17 years as a head coach, two successful? This deserves its own thread...

Where it gets buried. News,especially breaking news, is best on its own.

And the successor is...?

Let the speculation begin.

That's a sad day in Gainesville and Tuscaloosa... Urban and Saban owned the Pumpkin.

And if stock in Krispy Kreme could sink any lower, it would as a result of this.

 

[Armchair_QB]

Florida and Georgia should be extremely worried about who gets this job. It's a sleeping giant.

That's too bad. I dislike Tennessee greatly and now they have a chance at being good.

Like I said on Saturday night, [toot, toot!] this was highly predictable timing-wise.

Gives them a chance to get someone in before the end of the season, and allows the new coach to try and salvage a good recruiting class for signing day.

Who could/should they go after?

 

[Armchair_QB]

David Cutcliffe's name will come up immediately.

 

[Mizzougrad96]

Who are the obvious names?

 

[Mizzougrad96]

David Cutcliffe's name will come up immediately.

I'll be surprised if it's not a much bigger name.

Mike Leach anyone?

 

[JayFarrar]

Tommy Tuberville.
EDIT: Let me add that Tuberville would be a perfect fit in the SEC incest circle.

 

[nmmetsfan]

I could see Leach going. I could also see Tech boosters coming up with as much money is necessary to keep him.

 

[Football_Bat]

Johnny's getting laid again!

 

[Mizzougrad96]

I could see Leach going. I could also see Tech boosters coming up with as much money is necessary to keep him.

I get the sense that Leach is at the level where Meyer was during his final season at Utah. He's going somewhere big after this season.

 

[nmmetsfan]

If he's gonna strike, the iron doesn't get any warmer.

Chris Low brought up Lane Kiffin and Will Muschamp as possibilities on SC a moment ago.
