I'm not sure his latest musings about life existing elsewhere in the universe would go well with the rank and file at ND.
(Way off topic.)
You'd be surprised. RCC actually has made statements on this. Pope Francis said it's ok for catholics to believe that aliens exist and that he would be cool with baptizing them if we meet intelligent life. All this in the past decade. RCC also does a lot of astronomy. Actually makes me think they know something - and have known something for a long time - that they're laying the groundwork to eventually tell us.
Add Bob Davie to the hot seat list.
The Davie investigation was initiated in recent months, sources say, following the latest round of athlete exit interviews conducted over the spring.
NMFishbowl.com has not been told who the school has tasked with carrying out the investigation, or what precisely triggered it. However, sources say that the severity and volume of the allegations made by players were deemed to be of a serious enough nature as to warrant outside review.
“I can confirm there is an investigation underway in Athletics,” said UNM spokesperson Cinnamon Blair. “We are not going to comment on the details or the individuals involved until the investigation is complete.”

Indeed it is, but funny to contemplate, nonetheless. I'll admit, I'm not current on the Holy See's position on aliens nor the rest of the RCC. Progressive thinking - surprising to me, actually.

Leach? No. He's actually a Mormon.
This is interesting.
And disconcerting.
Stoops is a really good coach; he's much better than he usually gets credit for. For that reason, I would really hate to see him in South Bend.

Yeah.....I doubt he would have taken this gig then after turning it down two years earlier.

Fitzgerald isn't going to Notre Dame-IIRC, they showed interest in him after they fired Charlie Weis and he told them no. He's a Northwestern alum, and at this point he's got coach-for-life status there. If they fire Brian Kelly, they're going to make Bob Stoops tell them no before they look at anyone else.
I could see Chip Kelly in the SEC.....just not at a place where he's going to have to be in the same division with Nick Saban. I think Chip is a smart enough guy to know the talent that fits his system will get beat at the LOS by Saban year in and year out. Don't see him at Auburn or A&M.....and I don't think Ole Miss will touch him either. One more SEC thought for you-If Mike Bobo wins more than 7 games this year, he's going to go after one of those three gigs.
Let me throw a few other things out there-Watch for Idaho HC Paul Petrino's name to pop up for openings in this part of the country. Not a great record, but he won 9 games last year. If he gets Idaho to a bowl game, he's gone-this year is that program's last year as an FBS program. Watch for his name at Arizona and Arizona State......as well as Oregon State if they part ways with Gary Andersen after this year.

They have a game tonight vs boise st. Interesting watch.
Someone one Scout found a Mike MacIntyre thread on A&M's Scout site. Interesting to read the thoughts and opinions of CU and MM from an outside perspective. Honestly, most of what has been said in the thread has been pretty reasonable. Some really like the idea of MM's coaching ability with the talent A&M naturally pulls in, others are concerned about the lack of recruiting chops and say no. Below is part of the OP...

I can see this.
M2 works slowly, he is about building culture, building a foundation.
This may sound strange but UT is much more patient than aTm is. He would have enough talent right from the start at Texas to win the games against the B12 gimees (KU, ISU, TTU,) and enough others to at least get to a bowl game. Texas fans and more importantly boosters would like his personality and give him the benefit, at least for a couple years.
At aTm the bottom of the SEC is much tougher and the fans are more impatient. Not because they should be but they are. I also don't see him being a great fit for the rah rah culture of College Station.
No patience required at aTm. A solid coach would have them winning in year 1. Recruiting is easy at aTm if you are a winner. It's not really recruiting, it's shrewd evaluation. Recruiting to Colorado after Hawkins is akin to miracle working. That's not the situation in College Station, just like it wasn't the situation in Alabama.
The only school that I see Mac going to if they had the commitment and the money would be Georgia Tech. No other school makes that much sense because while MM has shown that he can "Build" a team, he has no track record of finishing the deal and "Winning" championships. We have Mac for at least 3 more years. Jay Mac will become a Grad Assistant and when he is ready, will follow in his dad's footsteps.
He also does not have a record of not being able to finish and win championships, as he's always been promoted before having to climb that hill.
My point is that we don't know, and we have no track record from which to speculate.
He might be able to win championships. He might not be able to.
I think he's earned the opportunity to try, and I think it will take a lot for him to not have that opportunity at CU.
Bielema's seat should be much hotter than it is. And zero chance that Leach ends up at ND.
Bielema is not on the hot seat because his buyout is ridiculously high, $15.4 million anytime before the end of 2017.

Florida or Notre Dame
Why would Florida be ditching Sparkles?
I agree with Duff Florida is probably the best job on that list right now.
