You forgot Ted Roof. Not that anybody has given a damn about Duke football since the late 80s...

 

[RyGuy45]

Duke - Ted Roof fired after a 6-45 overall record

 

[shannonscrooks]

As of Sunday it looks like Sonny Lubick is in the process of negotiating his release from Colorado State after 15 years as well.

 

[meb07]

Mike Sherman is the a&m coach

 

[N41D]

Word is John Holland and Dat Nguyen will join Sherman in College Station next season. Not sure in what capacity, but I'd assume Holland would be the DC andDat would be a position coach...

 

[iye2]

Ron English just finished his interview for the Michigan job
Best news Ive heard all day

.

 

[vincec15]

If Ron English does take the job if its offered to him, i think he will be a great coach for michigan.

 

[mrmossyman84]

I really hope that Buffalo can keep Turner Gill away from Nebraska

 

[jville819]

i love Bobby Bowden to death and appreciate everything he's done for FSU but we wont get any better until he retires

 

[jrellcuse10]

Add Greg Robinson to that list.

 

[N41D]

Gunna, what are your thoughts on the hires at the big programs so far? Pelini at Nebraska, Sherman at A&M? Can Houston Nutt win at Ole Miss?

 

[gunna get it]

Pelini - good hire, he shoulda been their in the 1st place
Nutt - good hire
Sherman -

Bringin in a NFL guy (Callahan all over again)
U shoulda heard Barry Switzer on Texas A & M

he rippppppped them for everything, for even thinking they are a top notch football program

allkinda *%##

 

[allen3xis]

Lol I heard that Gunna

can't say he was wrong though

 

[iye2]

You know its serious when we have a chart.
The Pelini sign was good for Nebraska..How much do you guys think all the departures (coming) are gonna effect Lsu??

 

[collierkoolaid]

Loving the Pelini hire as an NU alum.

 

[N41D]

Where was this at? It's all true, though.

How Texas A&M has not found a way to be really relevent on the national scene is beyond me...Excellent recruiting base, excellent facilities, one of thebest fan bases in the country, all kinds of money, excellent academics, College Station is a GREAT college atmosphere...They need to find a coach that can getthem winning games consistently so some of these Texas kids take notice and start giving them some looks. They've got everything all these elite programshas, except the results on the field...

I've seen alot of mixed feelings about Sherman. People are really thinking his success will hinge on his coordinators. Apparently he's bringing NFLguys along for the ride, though...I've heard Texans LB coach John Holland is going with to handle the defense, and he's trying to get Dat Nguyen backdown there as a LB coach and to take on some of the recruiting load...

Are you talking about tomorrow's game or the future?

 

[jrose5]

What? Dat Nguyen is out of the NFL? Damn, I thought he was still with the Cowgirls.




JR5

 

[N41D]

He retired like 3 years ago...Neck injury.

 

[snackworm]

It's a couple of days old, but Baylor hired Art Briles away from Houston.

 

[iye2]

Are you talking about tomorrow's game or the future?
The coming years. Bo Pelini...another great coach from the great state of Ohio.

I think talent wise LSU will be fine. I think more than anything they need a coach that instills discipline ie... Nick Saban kind of discipline. I'vewatched practically every LSU game for the past two years and this year's team lacked discipline. So many of their games were close this year because ofstupid penalties and mistakes which are characteristic of an undisciplined football team.
