Why the fuck would you hire a do-nothing like Riley anyway? You're Nebraska ffs. This is what anyone should have expected with this hire.

So Texas is falling apart before our eyes: http://www.cbssports.com/collegefoo...-are-angry-with-each-other-sniping-on-twitter
@Brick will complain about twitter for sure. But damn, Michigan wasn't this bad when things went really south for them. Although twitter was still pretty new in 2008, so maybe it would have been like this.

Oh yes. It was horrifying but really entertaining at the same time.

No not for me but I'm sure he will be by the end of the year. The BYU and Miami games you could write off but Illinois is a really bad loss. Thought at the start of the season Nebraska would finish in the 6-6 to 8-4 range. Probably should finish with at least 4 wins so things are looking up.
Also, that's big ten passing leader Tommy Armstrong to you

My top three HC candidates are Ed Orgeron, Willie Fritz, and Tommy Bowden, I think. Still putting some thought into it, since I never thought this day would (hopefully soon) come, but off the top of my head, that's where I am. Need to learn more about some successful coordinators that may be out there.
My preference would be to get a coach that wants to run out of the spread (always loved the Pat White offense) and is still committed to defense. I don't want to be Tulsa where the goal is to score 50 because the opponent is going to score 49 without a doubt.

Well, Bowden is there because I expect our president will want another well-established coach, and I think he's the least offensive one I can think of. Obviously the Bowden name is worth a lot in Orlando with both fans and donors, as well as with recruits. So that's the upside there.
As to Ed O., I think his interim year at Southern Cal shows he made a lot of progress; I know he talks a lot about his lessons learned at Ole Miss and how he changed his approach during the year at Southern Cal. And there's no doubt that he can recruit and would also be a hit with fans and boosters, so yeah, he's at the top of my list. It's a gamble, but it's a gamble that could pay off huge.
UCF really needs someone that can go out in the community and expand the fan/donor base and also really hit it off with the big donors, the media, and recruits. I think Ed O. can do all that.

Bowden was just barely mediocre at Clemson, and has been out of coaching since 2008. His best season ended with a Champs Sports Bowl trophy. I don't see how he is appealing at all. It would be the most boring hire in history. No one would respect it. You'd never have anything other than perpetual shitty bowl appearances.
I don't even know why I need to explain Orgeron. That is crazy talk. He was an abject failure at Ole Miss, and mid-season replacement coaches almost always do well because the players all mad. He had two tough games, Stanford and UCLA, and he split those (UCLA killed them). The other five teams they beat were bad. It showed nothing. He is a walking media headline, nothing more.

I got a soft spot for Orgeron because he makes up a substantial portion of the influences I use for my Mr. Manager shtick.

Firing the Fridge for this asshole was probably one of the worst coaching hires/decisions in the past decade. 22-33 at Maryland. Maryland was 9-4 the year before he arrived, for comparison. Yuck.

And James Franklin was on staff!

James Franklin was the reason Friedgen got fired. Tried to create a mutiny so he could take his HC in waiting spot.

Apparently the Twitterverse may have jumped the gun. I thought it was strange to see a firing on a Thursday. Sounds like he may be out after the weekend.

He'll send his ASU players a text message letting them know he's gone & will tell the media "this was my dream job"

Got to feel sorry for the guy. Lost his dream job.

You should think about DJ Durkin. He'd be a great fit at a Florida school. I'm just not sure if he'd want to take the UCF job when he could probably wait a year or two and get a power 5 job.

Durkin is going to be a head corch in the next couple of years. I think he'll stick around after this year, but I'd say it's looking iffy after that. Especially if this defense continues to be dominant.

hahahahahahhahahahahaha fuck that cunt. Even if this season goes to shit, I'm glad we got to contribute to that final nail.

Franklin looks like the weasel type to try that.

My only worry with a coach like that is getting Fedora'd by building for a couple of quick winning seasons to spring into that big time job, rather than focusing on the long term.
