Coaching Carousel

UF hiring Sumrall

not official just yet.

I get Florida sells it self some but this wouldn’t get me excited as a fan.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

MF needs to have his GM reach out to LSU AD Ausberry and get some intel on which LSU players will be transferring out knowing Lane is bringing in his own players & coaches.

 

[MacIrish75]

I could certainly see Ole Miss drop a spot or two if the coaching situation is that significant.

Or 7-8…

 

[IrishEyesAreSmiling]

Jesus 3 coaching hires within the span of 15 mins is insane lol

Something about UF prevents it from sustained success. It’s like they christened themselves a blue blood after finally winning a natty in ‘96. In reality, they’ve been like most schools where they truly have to get an elite HC to compete in (not just win) the SEC

 

[Huntr]

The SEC hiring cycle including 3 coaches from the same G5 conference is pretty crazy.

 

[DomeFieldAdvantage]

Would you look at that. It seems like at least some schools are learning to negotiate better contracts

It shouldn’t be lost on folks that it’s mostly happening at state-funded schools in state considered “welfare states”. I realize boosters & outside donors typically foot the bill on these big hires but the optics are bad…‘Murica

That probably only works if you're hiring a lower level coach, though, right?

Like, a stud P4 HC isn't gonna accept a contract w/o more guaranteed money, I think.

That said, hiring the really good G5 guy is probably the smarter play IMO.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

The SEC hiring cycle including 3 coaches from the same G5 conference is pretty crazy.

The G5 continues it’s journey to be the farm system for the P4 for both players & coaches. This should accelerate the move to one or two mega conferences and eventually players becoming full-time employees w/ collective bargaining rights & scholastic obligations optional. Grab your popcorn!

Great now Sumrall gets more mention in the media and we get to hear idiot fans refer to him as Summerall.

aaaaahahahahahahahahah

What we are about to see might be unprecedented. Rumors from the Ole Miss side are that not only is Lane leaving, but the coaches and players he is taking with him to LSU are opting out of the rest of the season.

We almost got left out for not having a coach.

FSU got screwed over by losing their QB.

Ole Miss might not have a coach, their QB, and a dozen others missing as well.

No, they are not excited, they were all in emotionally on Kiffin but with the below:

I think in the long run UF dodged a bullet here. If Sumrall doesn't work out you cut bait with a low buyout. When Lane crashes out in 3 years at LSU they're gonna be paying his 50M+ buyout on top of Kelly's.

 

[ab2cmiller]

Lane has an odd way of showing that he cares for these kids.

 

[Huntr]

All these folks suddenly remembering the circumstances when he left the Raiders, Tennessee, USC, and Bama...

 

[Ndaccountant]

So Lane IS a Hoe.

W/r/t the Kiffin situation at Ole Miss

 

[Jeffwantpoppers]

If players and coaches are leaving ole miss for lsu, the committee absolutely needs to think about whether ole miss deserves a place in the playoffs

 

[irishff1014]

W/r/t the Kiffin situation at Ole Miss

Maybe he should quit covering the SEC. Great athletes with no brain or thinking ability.

 

[Irishdawg]

Seems like this oldy but goody is apropos😉. Enjoy😂

 

[DillonHall]

There's just no good way to handle this sort of thing. It was always going to be ugly. He knows he probably can't win a national championship at Ole Miss this year so he wants to give himself the best chance to do so, which would involve taking his players and coaches to LSU. At the same time, who wouldn't want a shot at a Playoff run? Kiffin holds all the leverage right now and he's gonna use it. If I was Ole Miss, I would just let him coach the Playoff

 

[DillonHall]

Except it's the grownups doing all that crap

 

[Riddickulous]

Kiffin gonna Kiffin. What a narcissist.

 

[WaveDomer]

As a Tulane alum, I don’t blame Sumrall for taking that deal. I don’t think he is ready and has largely been a media creation but we will see. Despite 4 straight conference championship games, the program has trended a bit down since Fritz left. Definitely wish Sumrall well and hope Tulane can confidently sell the job now that 2 straight HC have gone on to get paid.

 

[DomeFieldAdvantage]

Again, Ole Miss might genuinely have to be dropped from the playoffs. Its insane.

 

[MPClinton22]

LSU going from muh fahmuhlee to this nonsense is truly incredible stuff. Employing the most hated man in CFB back to back

 

[Padomer9]

Is it crazy that all these other schools have hired or are the process of hiring their HC’s before PSU? That job has been open the longest. There’s a new name attached to the job every 3 days. I’m curious what the back story is there.

Some of the stuff flying around OM fan twitter/message boards is WILD.
