Coaches getting axed begins

@Brett_McMurphy: West Virginia OC Jake Spavital will be new coach at Texas State, @Keff_C reports
 
Not getting axed, but...


Tough spot for that program. Roster full of option kids. Can modernize and go through some growing pains or bring in another option guy and mediocrity continues. I know their fans could care less either way.
 
JMU coach offered the Charlotte job:

I'm glad to see Johnson move on. He actually put a solid team on the field this year. I want a coach to come in there and - at least - give UGA some in-state competition. I know Ga Tech will always be the step-brother and take a back seat, but there's no reason they can't win one out of four or five years. Hopefully they make a good hire.

That guy from LaLa that was Fooley's second choice after Butters got fired two years later and is available.

Tech isn’t interested in football enough to make a decent hire.
 
@BruceFeldmanCFB: #BowlingGreen is hiring #BC OC Scot Loeffler as BG's new head coach.


I am not sure where BG ranks in the MAC as I rarely follow those teams, but I have to think with this hire that BG will be a solid contender for the cellar.
 
Jeff Brohm: Quite a while back we reported that Purdue was going aggressive to keep Brohm. Tonight, Pat Forde is reporting that Purdue is “believed to have sweetened Brohm’s current $4 million per-year deal to as much as $6 million annually, while offering incentives to stay.” Forde added that Louisville’s offer was walked up to $5 million per year.

Florida State: FSU president John Trasher told Warchant he expects a few of Willie Taggart’s assistants to take other jobs this winter, while pledging Taggart will have the resources necessary to properly fill those vacancies.

He was a good guy and built a solid program, just was never going to go beyond where they are now. Sad thing is that back in the late 90's early 00's they still gave a crap and did compete for top guys in the state and got a lot of them. I know the rankings weren't what they are now, but there were a lot of the top guys in the state going to Tech when O'Leary was there. I'm just not sure two decades of mediocrity later than can just turn it back on to get the fans excited again. Most of given up and are just happy to be there and a 6 win season is all they require.
 
The real Q here is....Does F$U have any coaches anyone else wants? Esp. after the sh*t show they produced last Saturday.

2 things of note:

1. Purdue overpaid.
2. If FSux is making Willie get rid of assistants already - then the writing is already on the wall.

    @AlexDaGator, you've got me all nostalgic now about the Ford Rouge Plant, Zug Island, and now what was Great Lakes Steel, then Nippon Steel, now US Steel just down the river from Zug Island. We would drive down to the park on the river at the end of Southfield Road at night and watch the sky light up when they would pour the slag off from the molten steel... was pretty incredible.

    I'm just surprised Zug Island didn't make it into the Kokomo song.
  • Detroitgator Detroitgator:
    How Zug Island and Fordson Island further up the Rouge were formed is an interesting thing. Henry cut two straight channels so that his iron ore freighters could go up and down the river to the Rouge Plant. The only way to access Fordson Island (which is technically Dearborn) was a bridge on the Detroit side of the original river. During prohibition, it was a lawless place of debauchery
  • Detroitgator Detroitgator:
    Zug Island was a place that at night with the flames, looked like actual Hell

    I hear Zug Island is beautiful this time of year.
    there is a beauty to Zug Island... my Dad worked many a times on Zug Island. It's also where the Edmund Fitzgerald was actually headed, then on to Cleveland. There was an AWESOME dive bar right off of Zug Island called the Delray Cafe that we would go to when I would go home to Detroit. Zug Island is in the Delray section of Southwest Detroit... it was originally full a big Hungarian neighborhood with tons of great food places when I was young.

    Let's re-write the lyrics. Born and raised in...Cleveland? St. Louis? Chicago? Philadelphia? Newark? Indianapolis? Gary? Pittsburgh? Actually, musically speaking, Louisville or Jacksonville would fit the song but lack the cache of South Detroit. Nah. I got nuthin'.
