2018-2019 Coaching Carousel..

Locksley to Maryland it appears. Pretty solid hire due to his recruiting and as long as he stays out of trouble.
I wonder what put Locksley over the top. Was it his 2-26 record at New Mexico? Or was it the smaller body of work they got to see up close when he went 1-5 as interim HC at Maryland a few years ago?

Buffs are not just winning the Coaching Carousel this year, we're lapping the field.

That was before he went to the Saban Coach Rehab Clinic. We'll see.

I think the 2-15 in conference record was the key
 
2-26 is pretty ugly......and i thought i remembered the name Locksley from somewhere....well, second chances hooray.

I don’t know. He was a train wreck at New Mexico. I think they would be better off keeping Canada.

i guess Saint Saban, Tua and Alabama anything removes all sins.

though i do gotta say....the way this year's Tide O gets WR's downfield and in the pattern....seems a lot more dynamic and less "SEC" than other iterations of the Tide here in the Great Age of Nick.

Every update from lefty deserves "Likes" from all of you assholes. One of the better threads on this site and he puts in some work to keep it updated. Show some appreciation and don't be a dick. That is all.
 
Gary Anderson back to Utah state according to football scoop
He may be like Mike Riley was to Oregon State. One of those instances where a guy and a school belong together and the guy should have never left.
 
FoCo to Gainesville to Mount Pleasant, Michigan.

the quality of this dude's geographic location as HC is not on a good trajectory
