Sonny ****s better be smart enough to keep that whole Mizzou defensive staff should he land there
Mullen was lukewarm on the job, so it's all over the map with that one. At this point, we'll probably never know how that truly went down, but I can say with certainty it was never close to getting done.
Moving along ... As mentioned, I'm still thinking Durkin the likeliest hire, with Locks and Reich as wildcards.
If Smart is taking key assistants, If I'm Bama I go after that Mizzou defensive staff.
And among the 65 power-five schools, Syracuse ranks among the bottom third in institutional support.
According to federal data recently released as part of compliance with Title IX regulations, Syracuse ranked 46th out of the 65 schools in the amount of money the school put toward its football program last year.
Syracuse spent $19.8 million on its football team in 2014-15 according to the Title IX data, just over a third of Alabama, which led the country in football spending at $51 million.
That spending was down from the $23.6 million spent on the football team in 2013-14. The football team's revenue generated, meanwhile, rose from to $38.5 million to $41.8 million.
Syracuse ranked ninth out of the 14 ACC teams on the list in spending on football last year.
While the numbers are not a perfect comparison because schools use different accounting methods, they serve as one of the only methods available for taking a broad look at the country's public and private school athletic budgets. The expense numbers include the value of scholarships, where private schools typically exceed public schools.
Still, the financial figures could explain why Syracuse spent this season with the lowest-paid football coach in the ACC and presumed top choice Scott Frost wound up with the $18 million budget at Central Florida of the American Athletic Conference, and not the $19.8 Syracuse is spending in the ACC.
So does his tanPoor form, we're going to have to work on that
ATTENTION ACC: Here comes Forever 9-3!!!Richt and Pruitt in Miami gonna put the ACC on notice
UCF: Scott Frost has a five-year deal with an option for a 2-year extension, worth $1.7 million in the first year. The salary pool for his assistants will be $2.3 million. Athletic director Danny White says that Frost was offered a higher annual salary, but wanted a higher pool for his assistant coaches.
Might just be getting a feel for every offer out thereCan Miami hurry up and hire Richt? Now I'm hearing bs about him actually interviewing at UVA, please tell me that's not actually a realistic possibility...

Damn, I would've loved to see that meltdown if true.Schiano was also rumored to be a finalist for the opening at Southern California. If USC had lost to UCLA this past weekend, there is a strong possibility that he would have been named the head coach of the Trojans.
