Coaching Hot Seat?

Georgia lost some players too.
Georgia celebrated how their stars stayed to play in the game.... Kirby Smart talked about how they would always "compete like hell"

The summary of Georgia player availability from the Miami Herald:
Georgia entered the game Saturday without any of its healthy starters opting out. The only true noticeable player who didn't suit up was All-American tight end, Brock Bowers, who has been dealing with a high ankle injury for nearly two months


FSU was down 6 starters on offense, 8 on defense, Georgia was a 3 TD favorite going into the beat-down (although 63-3 is ridiculous regardless)

Georgia was missing players too and also didn't want to be there despite what they said.

FSU deserves everything they got and then some. A real championship team would have competed.

The right four made the playoffs.

so we agree they weren't the same team, thanks
 
Are you familiar with DeBoer's record? 109-13 LIFETIME
67-3 Sioux Falls
12-6 Fresno
25-3 Washington

why would he think he couldn't be successful anywhere?
I was talking more about coaches who are successful for a few years at G5 tier programs and then get offered mid to high level P4 jobs and get the boot within 2-3 years. Not anyone specific
 
Oklahoma is going to become another Nebraska in the SEC. I think long term Texas will too. Opening the door to the SEC into their recruiting grounds won’t end well for either one.
Oklahoma is going to become another Arkansas in the SEC: a smaller-state school that doesn't have the in-state talent with which to compete consistently.

So, is the Moore hire a stain on Superstar Warde's legacy at Michigan?
 
Getting a little toasty in Crimson Tide territory. Patience is not their long suit. He probably get this year and next but it may be a dead man walking scenario.

Deboer can win 10 games every year and they';ll still be pissed because he hasn't won a title.

True but they are still the best because they only lost to teams that beat Alabama.

Here are the first year records of the last 8 Alabama head coaches:

Bear Bryant 5-4-1
Ray Perkins 8-4
Bill Curry 7-5
Gene Stallings 7-5
Mike DuBose 4-7
Dennis Franchione 7-5
Mike Shula 4-9
Nick Saban 7-6

And, Nick Saban lost at home to Louisiana-Monroe in year 1, 21-14. And, L-M ended up 6-6 that year.

I think the powers to be at Alabama know that you have to give DeBoer some time and he will probably end up having the best first year head coaching record of the past 8.

Saban inherited a bad team from Shula, while DeBoer follows a NC-caliber season.

He will absolutely get some time, as he should. I'm just saying that it would probably take multiple NCs for some fans to get over the Vandy loss.

True, but DeBoer had to deal with the transfer portal and Alabama lost 39 walk-ons and scholarship players to the portal after Saban retired.
 
Penn State at 7-1 and 4-1. Hot seat for James Franklin? "chokingest big time coach in recent college football history"

Granted Ohio State is always tough but Penn State has beaten a ranked Illinois (at that time) and that is it.

This guy has Trent Dilfer at UAB on the hot seat.

"UAB was able to snap a six-game losing streak with a decisive 59-21 win over Tulsa, but the Blazers are still 2-7 and will likely be listed as underdogs in the four games left on the schedule. Running the table and making a bowl could potentially provide Trent Dilfer with the momentum he needs to prove the program is actually headed in the right direction despite the mountain of evidence that’s amassed this season suggesting otherwise, but I find it very hard to believe that will end up being the case."

 
This just means that getting rid of Napier means getting rid of the AD. Which the boosters will easily do if they remain unhappy.

Florida doesn't look too bad. Much better than the beginning of the season. With the expanded playoffs I think coaches are going to get my leeway because they don't have to be as "perfect" to get into the playoffs.

The team looks better except for QBs. They are down to their 3rd and 4th string QBs who are both preparing for Texas game.

Lagway hasn't been too bad when healthy and firing Napier likely means he transfers out. This was as much about keeping that talent in Gainesville as anything.
 
Napier further benefits from the scandal around the MBB coach, which will take the spotlight for a little while.
 
  • UNC — time for Mack to retire for good
  • UAB — only 2 seasons so Dilfer may get more time but so far a disaster
  • Fla — buyout likely too big
  • FSU — ditto
  • Pur — also only 2 years
  • Aub — who would’ve thought that hiring a scumbag wouldn’t work? But also only 2 years
  • USC ? Lincoln Riley has not exactly turned out as promised

Top of my list fell today with Mack getting axed.
 
Napier making a lot of people look stupid now that his team is finally putting it together
