The 2021-2022 Coaching Carousel

The Mike Bohn commemorative Update

Open jobs:


Troy- No the other one, Chip Lindsey out (h/t DeNiro)

Akron- Tim Arth out, (h/t DeNiro) 3-24 overall, replaced on an interim basis by Oscar Rodriguez. UPDATE: Eddie George could be the man (h/t DeNiro)

Ohio- Frank Solich retires at the end of the year after 16 successful years as the Bobcat HC. (h/t Deniro) Health related retirement. Good for him to leave on his own terms.

FIU- Butch Davis is a gonna hang it up at the end of the year and retire.

LSU- Ed O out. (h/t Carolina Buff), apparently when Ed O isn't covering up sexual assaults and turning in unsatisfactory W-L records, he is propositioning random women at gas stations, unfortunately, the last lady of the pump was an LSU muckety-muck's wife. (h/t 14er). Who's gonna be? Melvin? Dave Aranda? Jakes Franklin? Joe Brady? Billy Napier? Ed O's buyout is $17M (h/t Creebuzz), about a dollar more than luminaries like HCKD. I would say Ed O will retire and go into broadcasting, but.....Lincoln Riley? (h/t Albaster Yak) . Add UK's Mark Stoops to the list (h/t CarolinaBuff) No Lincoln Riley, apparently. (h/t Jens)

I think you left the OU job off of the list. That search is going to be a hoot!
 

china falling GIF by philiplueck
 
I always thought it ND joined any conference, it would be the B1G.
Seems like a natural match but why would they want to play against a tougher schedule than the one they have with their historical rivals and a few add-ons?
Notre Dame is used to calling their own shots. In the B1G they would not be a bigger deal that some of the current members and wouldn't be able to carve out exceptions from such things as conference scheduling requirements and more importantly conference media rights.

The B1G media distribution is huge but ND has to think that they can make more based on their name and national popularity.

It wouldn't surprise me to see ND eventually forced to join a conference but most likely that conference would be the ACC because the ACC needs them more in a relative sense.

Because of this ND could get their ACC payout (maybe with a slight discount) while still controlling rights to play and to make the money from some traditional rivals. How much can ND make playing USC, Texas, Michigan, etc.
