Keeps aTm at bay.
What I heard is that if the SEC expands, they'll look to TCU and the DFW market as a main target if they can't get UT. They wouldn't want Baylor. So it looks like TCU will remain a really great job no matter what happens to the Big 12 down the road. With that, though, it's probably no coincidence that Patterson didn't sign beyond when the next media rights period hits.
Nebraska friend is saying the next day at the latest. He’s hoping it’s after they lose the coin toss.
Diaco's defense is getting shredded. I remember when he was the prize DC recruit.
I don't think they can keep him after lobbying so publicly for Frost. He may be their best option, though.

Doesn't seem to me like they have a backup plan-Mike Leach probably has a better job right now.......and he can keep coaching in Pullman as long as he wants.
Yeah, the “Leach to Lincoln” speculation is a head scratcher. No idea why he would do that. Forget the obvious part about stepping into a dumpster fire. The offense he runs is antithetical to the type of offense that the nubs fans want. Talk about a horrible fit. He’s in his wheelhouse in Pullman. He can coach there for another 20 years if he wants to.
Not suggesting it's going to happen but the allure is that his longtime AD at Wazzu is now the AD at NU.
Thanks. I guess I knew that, but totally forgot it. I can’t see how that makes enough of a difference, but maybe it could. Leach in Lincoln just seems horrible.
To be honest, the coach Id like to see most there is Dan Hawkins.

I think Bill Callahan should be re-hired.
Callahan is coaching in the NFL somewhere as an OC (I think). He probably would do as well or better than Riley has. The funniest part about Callahan was that he was their sixth or seventh choice. He wasn’t even on their initial board. Total screw up from day one on that hire. Let’s hope they do something similar this time.
Bielema, maybe, but that would rile the natives.
That's the name I keep seeing.
Was wondering the same thing about Riley. After the game or tomorrow but he is a dead man walking in that job. They probably end up with a worse option because my guess is Frost ends up in Gaineaville. Not many are going to be willing to head to Lincoln and it is dropping like a rock when you compare other coaching options.
He’d be a good hire there, IMO. I hope they don’t hire him. I’m not sure what happened in Arkansas, but I always liked his Wisconsin teams. I’d really hate to see him reproduce that.
It would be a better fit for him than Arkansas (imo), but the AD might have a hard time selling it.
Mike riley back to Osu?
Why?
Just because of his record at Arkansas? If so, those people are dumber than a box of wet hammers.
Bielema officially out at Arkansas
Less than 20 mins after game over.
I think it is legitimate to question how good he is as a coach.
I give him some credit for the success he had at Wisconsin, but it's reasonable to question why his teams performed poorly at Arkansas.

I like where you are going here.
Perhaps it is time for CU to do some innovation. They can implement an anarcho-syndicalist coaching commune where they have all the coaches take turns to act as sort of executive officer or head coach for the week. Of course, the game plan would need to be ratified at special weekly meetings and approved by simple majority. For recruiting decisions, it would require a two-thirds majority.
It could work.
I order you to be quiet!
It's very relevant to be looking at Arkansas and Oregon State right now and asking ourselves if Wisconsin is 90% Barry Alvarez whether or not he's still the HC for football.
