@ProFootballTalk: Marion Hobby out as Dolphins defensive line coach Marion Hobby out as Dolphins defensive line coach - ProFootballTalk

I don't pretend to know all the specifics of coaching, But having your best season in 12 years, missing the playoffs by a hair but with a lot of future hope, and then shaking things up by firing(now 3) coaches, just days into the offseason, may be the most Dolphins move ever.

@Brett_McMurphy: Former Vanderbilt coach Derek Mason named defensive coordinator at Auburn

I think that’s a good hire.

 

[CGgater]

I think that’s a good hire.

DM should've dumped tg in favor of Mason.

 

[williston_gator]

@DerekJTyson: So Auburn gets Mason, UT will get Kevin Steele. And Florida....

 

[WiredG8R]

Would have been nice to get a new DC!

Butch Jones off to a rough start at Arkansas State:

Things already aren’t going well for Butch Jones at Arkansas State

Things already aren't going well for Butch Jones at Arkansas State

The Butch Jones era at Arkansas State isn’t exactly off to a great start.
Jones initially hired former Houston head coach Major Applewhite to be his offensive coordinator. That didn’t last long, as Applewhite quickly jumped ship to join Kane Wommack’s inaugural staff at South Alabama.

After Applewhite went to South Alabama, Jones then hired A.J. Milwee to serve as Arkansas State’s offensive coordinator. Milwee was an analyst at Alabama with Jones.

This hire didn’t last long either (eight days to be exact).

Football Scoop reported on Tuesday that Milwee will be joining Steve Sarkisian’s staff at Texas as the Longhorns’ quarterbacks coach.

This means that Jones will be on his third offensive coordinator at Arkansas State in his first month on the job.

Probably not the start to his tenure that Jones was expecting.

@nickbaumgardner: Source tells The Athletic Michigan and Jim Harbaugh are close to finalizing a five-year deal -- expected base salary is $4 million. With incentives, he could get it back to $8 million. Buyout is expected to be low. Harbaugh hasn't signed. Is expected to soon.

It is sad to see the Texas and Floridas of the world relegated to Drunks and Dorks who will never win anything.

Sounds like this place

Football means more at Bama, Auburn, TAMU, LSU...than at the Ivy League of Florida.
