    Kansas gets Weis.

    UCLA hires Mora Jr.

    Arizona dives for Dick Rod.

    Arizona State reels in the turncoat Graham.

    Who knows what's going to happen at Penn State.

    What in the hell are these institutions thinking?

    Yet another useless thread from no coincidences. What else is new?


    I wonder how many threads you goign to create in the nba season and complain about them fixing games and ONLY IF YOU HAVE THE OTHER SIDE WITH YOUR 10 DOLLAR BET

      Weis to Kansas is the worst hire.

      Fat guys can not hack it.

        Urban Meyer to the buckeye is the best one.

          Weis is the best Kansas can do

          Rodriguez will thrive at Arizona

          Mora Jr could turn out to be a decent hire. USC hired a failed NFL coach a decade ago and we all know how that turned out.

          Don't know much about the Graham guy other than the fact that he did pretty well at Tulsa

          Hardly the worst hiring stretch in CFB history. Shows what you know about the game. Stick to watching pinnacle line movements

            Weis is the "best Kansas can do"?

            What makes you think RR will "thrive" at Arizona? Do Slaton and White have eligibility left?

            Mora Jr. is a huge gamble. UCLA could've easily gotten a more proven commodity.

            I watched some of Pitt's games this year. Graham was a horrible in-game coach. He's proven nothing at the BCS level.

              The same guy thats boss was AL Davis, who forced his hand and wouldn't let him build/coach the team like he wanted.

              He also had coached for them previously, and fits with the system they already had in place.

              They also got monty and orgeron which is a big part of their success. Both on the field and recruiting

              Kiffen doesn't really apply here, USC basically hired a team of coaches.

              Edit: not trying to defend kiffen, hate the man.

                Christmas is going to be a little anticlimactic this year. Not all that exciting because every day is like Christmas when Urban F. Meyer is your coach.

                    Uhhhh....he was referring to Pete Carroll.

                    Hence the "a decade ago" reference.

                        flipped blue chip DLs from both Penn State and Sparty this week. if you'd asked me in August, i loathed the guy, but there is no denying that he's the best thing for the program. listening to him do games gave me respect for his coaching mind. he will be very aggressive. if you'd have told me at this time last year that a year later Urban Meyer would be OSU's coach and i'd be thrilled, i'd have set the odds at +1000000000000.

                          Didn't see that, assumed he was talking about kiffen since he was a recent hire.

                            speaking of Carroll, i just saw the other day that he's 60. i thought he was about 52 and surfed to work.

                                    Leach was another good hire... its hard to say what is a good and bad hire until games are played... turner gill was a great hire for kansas a few years ago look how that turned out... lot of places didn't hire yet either

                                      Pitt by far had the best talent in the Big East, and Graham did an awful job with that team. Can't believe Arizona State hired him, although at least they didn't hire Mike Martz.

                                                    Back to the thread does op realize that richrod will succeed at his next spot? That's kind of a no brainer
