Well they asked him politely if he would voluntarily leave all those millions of dollars alone, and I guess his answer must have displeased them

Sumrall is a god-awful hire for Florida. Literally Billy Napier 2.0. Runs the exact same offense, was a one-score wizard at a Louisiana G5 school. All of it. 

Thank god!

Will Stein front runner at Kentucky apparently 

He will either be the surprise winner as best hire of the entire carouse in the long run, or be run out of town in less than two full seasons due to lack of experience.  I don't expect much in between.

Speaking of which, what's the latest on Collin Klein's head coaching prospects?

I remember hearing early on that he was a candidate at Ok St, but obviously that didn’t pan out. Considering his record against Texas as an OC, I hope he stays in College Station for many years

I'm also for giving Marcel Reed as much college eligibility as he wants.

Best possible hire for them in opinion. Granted it’s high risk because he’s so young, but the guy can call an offense. 

Either him or Hartline

Is Penn State trying to find the next child molestation enabler or what? What is their hold up? Franklin was fired October 12th. 

Two camps seem to be that it’s either Chesney or Hartline and they are waiting until after the championship games to announce, or Kraft is fucking up and no one wants the job while Franklin steals all the recruits.

Arky fans think they're a top job but don't realize they're a bottom tier job at this point.  They used to be good until they stopped taking football seriously with the Pittman hire.  Meanwhile, the whole landscape changed.

They were are the bottom this year with Oklahoma State.  I thought OSU was a worse job but they got a better coach so maybe not.  Looking at Arkansas' schedule next season, 4-8 looks likely and these same fans will just bitch.

With nil and the portal any program can turn right around.  Silverfield and the UM GM have been really good at managing the portal and their retention element.  The GM is expected to move to Fayettenam as well.  He was able to pull 29 wins in three years solidifying winning teams out of all new players is what’s needed at all but the biggest programs.  
 

the schools that go after old school coaches that think players are there for four years and can’t figure out the portal are going to crash into a brick wall.  It’s way more about coaching than scheme.

As a new Ark fan this year with a kid now going there, I am amazed at how many of their fans just expect the glory days to come roaring back.  So many of them were begging the school to keep Petrino, whose overall record is spotty at best (and didn't win ONE SINGLE GAME after taking over as interim HC).  

I think Silverfield is a decent hire - as mentioned above, he seems to have a strong football mind and understand the new NIL/portal environment.  But the SEC is consistently a meat grinder, so if he can't recruit quickly (and get the Waltons/Tysons/Hunts of NWA to pony up even more for NIL), don't expect much to change.

Ark is in good shape in most other sports, and the AD Yurachek has been really vocal about needing to fix funding for football now, so we'll see.

This likely means PSU is now about to go official with theirs. Chesney was 2nd in odds to get the PSU job the last 24 hours or so

Great hire (I hope).  Exactly the type of hire we needed to make.

Wait so it's Klein's fault, not Elko's...while it's the other HC's fault?  Interesting.

I mean their Offense wasn't good, but they depend on a mid QB too much.  However Elko is a defensive coach and we had our best rushing day against them.
