The Curse of 60 Minutes

[JTLA]

Nick Saban appeared on 60 minutes on November 3rd. Now they lose two consecutive games. That hasn't happened since 2008 to Saban and Alabama.

Pete Carroll appeared on 60 minutes in December of 2008. In 2009 they lost 4 games, went on probation and he fled to the NFL.

Mike Leach appeared on 60 minutes in December of 2008. One year later he was fired for being mean to Craig James' son.

Brady Hoke and Michigan were featured on 60 minutes in November of 2012. Since then they have gone 7-8.

Charlies Weis appeared on 60 minutes in November of 2006. He was 15-4 as Notre Dame's coach, and he went 20-23 after that.

Please let me know if I missed anyone!

That's pretty crazy. Mostly attributable to regression towards the mean, but still pretty crazy.

Or sorcery. Statistics or magic, it's all gobbledygook to me.

Vince Young was on there after his rookie season. And then? Sucking, running up a $14,000 tab at Applebees, and chartering flights on Southwest by buying all the individual tickets.

Also, Andy Rooney was on there...then died. I think he wins "Worst 60 Minutes Curse" award. al
