In addition to a slew of SEC games being cancelled this weekend, Ohio State and Maryland has been cancelled as well due to the Terps dealing with an outbreak

ASU-Cal just cancelled due to a bunch of positives at ASU. Herm Edwards is among those testing positive.

No word yet on whether Herm still believes you have to play to win the game

Ah. I can watch that for an hour before the Packers kick off.

I’ve been watching Wisconsin football for almost 50 years, and I have never seen them dominate Michigan physically like this. Harbaugh is going to manage his way back to the NFL after this year.

Oregon appears to be the Pac 12s lone hope. And they are still figuring things out a bit.

Shough definitely has a lot of potential as a college QB

Promotion due to incompetence. Gotta love it.

It's worked out pretty good for Kingsbury. Get fired at Texas Tech, then land a NFL job.

South Carolina has parted ways with head coach Will Muschamp after 4.5 seasons.

Muschamp is getting combined $21 buyouts from two SEC schools.

JWags85 · « **Reply #388 on:** November 15, 2020, 10:50:18 PM »

Some people are just better suited to be coordinators. He’s a very good DC, but demonstrably crap at running a program. He may get a job at a Sun Belt/Mountain West caliber school, but he’s better off getting close to 7 figures being a DC at a P5 program

His agent should be fired if his buyout from 2 schools is only $21

Especially since the agent will take $2.10 off the top....

In this example, we are talking buyout with regards to fired without cause. That type of buyout. Leaving on your own for elsewhere is a different type of buyout to be looked at separately. Let's take a look.

Many would say that's a lot of $ and good if you can get it based on Muschamp's results. He had one season of two games or more over .500 at each school.

Dan Mullen has had a $12 million buyout at Florida. Kirby Smart's at Georgia, started in a similar range and is down to $2 million. Orgeron's buyout began at $12 million, is down to $4 plus million now and is soon to be $1 million.

There are other more extreme examples of huge buyouts.

More successful coaches, don't really have one of course. Saban does not have one. Dabo's is $4 million but soon to be $1 million.

This is a list of salaries and buyouts of a coach left on his own to go elsewhere:

Northwestern opens +8 against Wisconsin. Bet on the Cats. Not even a joke, no fans allowed benefits Northwestern more than any other team in FBS.

I'd bet on UW, sadly.

Probably helps Vandy too. During my years there, they would often have more fans from visiting teams than Vanderbilt. I was at a Vandy-UT game once that might just as well have been at Neyland Stadium.

This kinda blows my mind. Ed Orgeron listed as a coach whose seat is 'heating up'...just months after a National Championship. Went from a 0 ('untouchable') preseason to a 3 ('pressure mounting') today.

https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/2020-hot-seat-rankings-jim-harbaugh-ed-orgeron-among-college-football-coaches-heating-up/

And I thought the Nojos were impatient....

Mr. Nielsen · « **Reply #398 on:** November 18, 2020, 08:53:40 PM »

I still don't think Ed Orgeron is a good coach. He is one heck of a recruiter. Being on a hot seat is a joke. First move would be, fire Bo Pelini as defense coordinator.

I think he’s a good college coach when he has a good staff. He’s a fantastic recruiter, a great motivator, and good steward of the program. Losing both Dave Aranda and Joe Brady in an offseason hurt.

But him having his job in jeopardy is insanity, especially in this weird season. If he wins 8 games a normal year, he’s bulletproof for another 3-4 years
