HOW FIRED ARE YOU?

Psh…my chemical plant laughs at your weak sodium reference…Aluminum alkyls biotch!!! That’s the truck I would swerve to avoid and speed by like a NASCAR driver.

Nebraska AD Steve Pederson fired at 3:15 ET today.

Can we move Callahan from “so fucking fired” to “Jesus, just fucking resign already?”

Houston Nutt is going to Westwood, if UCLA’s coach hiring skills are about the same as when they hired Karl Dorrell.

Just as long as Nutt doesn’t end up at USC, anyway.

Albino, you posted that before 3:15. Are you a fortune teller?

Steve Pedersen fired today!

I was going to lobby to add the Wannstache to this list, but Pitt’s still on the hook for two more years at $1 million per for his…ahem…“services”. So the chances of Pitt picking up the tab for $2 million while also paying a new coach probably sit between “slim” and “none”. Perhaps we need to wait a year.

But DC Paul Rhoads, O-line coach Paul Dunn and OC Matt Cavanaugh? They’re so fucking fired.

The caption on the Korman pic made me guffaw so explosively and abruptly that I think I may have damaged my bowels.

Please … please … please … add Tyrone Willingham to your list. If you need me to, I’ll start the rumor.

Here it goes: UW Administrators are meeting today to discuss the future of Head Football Coach Tyrone Willingham. The meeting is being convened because lots of UW fans are REALLY FUCKING SICK OF LOSING!

I hope this burns across the internets like the heat of a thousand flaming hot things.

“The Aggies and Huskers combined are killing the vulture populations of the Heartland; caught between two such tantalizingly awful smells, they’re dropping dead of exhaustion flying between the two.”

I can tell ya the truth, it’s raining down very tired vultures here in KS at this very moment.

My money’s on time traveller.

Nutt is even on ebay today… http://cgi.ebay.com/Arkansas-Razorback-Moral-Victory-Heavily-Used_W0QQitemZ260170923847QQihZ016QQcategoryZ21224QQcmdZViewItem

The over/under on interim coaches Kansas faces between now and the end of the season is 1.5.

Has it become too cliché too expect the inclusion of Tommy Bowden on a list like this?

Pederson is done:

http://www.journalstar.com/huskerextra/football/doc4713b58350f87196520867.txt

I am sure Callahan is not far behind.

although the city of Athens is far too drunk to notice that their football team really sucks, Mark Richt should probably be on this list…unfortunately he’s not.

When we were in high school, we stole a giant chunk of sodium from the chem lab and threw it in the local watering hole. It blowed up real good. It also possibly contaminated the town’s drinking water for a few years, but it was pretty cool anyway.

from the Wikipedia entry on Nebraska Cornhuskers Football.

“Stever Pederson’s firing on October 15th 2007, is linked to the assumption that Bill Callahan is gone as well. Anybody who argues this is crazy! Rumors are currently swirling that the new athletic director is to be named Super Macho Man, a fictional boxing character in Nintendo’s Mike Tyson’s Punchout.”

I’m flippin JACKED. Pederson is gone. There have been amber alerts all over Nebraska looking for the blackshirts. Orson ran a picture of Herbie w/ a gun to his head. It has been a long season for us Husker fans.

I want to see a new reality show started to pit viable coaches and random celebrities and nobodies against each other to decide who is going to be the next coach at [redacted] after [redacted2] is fired.
That could actually be worth watching. We could all text in our votes for our favorites and have viewing parties for the results shows. And they wouldn’t even tell the contestants or viewers which team they are competing for a position with and then shock them at the end with a mediocre salary at a beleagured team…

…needs a catchy title though.

EDSBS’s server clock is a good 10+ minutes ahead of real time. My system time is 2:38 CDT — compare that to the timestamp of the post.

Why would UGA get rid of St. Richt? He’s only their most successful coach since Dooly retired.

Now, filling your roster with JuCo transfers doesn’t bolster confidence, but St. Richt has earned himself at least 2 more years of job security.

maybe these schools could just work a three way trade. nebraska wants to go back to running like the old days (nutt), a&m would like a little more “west coast” (callahan), and arkansas would like anyone not named houston nutt (the fupa’d one).

Herbie can put the gun down now. He’d better hang on to the bottle of Jack, though.

Now, Chan Gailey is most certainly on the Hot Seat. Don’t beat the Dawgs this year and prepare to test the housing market, Chan.

Granted, they are considered more “footbaw schools” than UCLA, but how about some suggestions for how fired Karl Dorrell is, considering he may be the only coach this year who loses to Notre Dame?

15: Flavor of Croom.

Why is Wannstedt not on this list or does his stache have mystical powers of persuasion?

Gary Barnett?

Why would kansas have interim coaches? Are you counting on a Mangino heart attack or something?

Nutt, like chlorine dioxide, is far too dangerous for transport. It must be manufactured and used on-site.

DORELL from ucla?

I think he is gone for sure too…..

DORELL from ucla?

I think he is gone for sure too…..

How soon? End of season.

Ideal job? He would be a great Greeter at Wal-Mart. Such a friendly human being with warm eyes and stuff.

No way we get rid of Richt. Anyone inside Dawg nation who wishes that is: a) a moron b) a bandwagoneer c) a rival pretender trying to stir up trouble. Now, Wille Martinez on the other hand, may have to be sacrificed.

Brother Will – come home, your boys need you.

1. - And A&M plans to hire Little Mac who can always defeat the Macho Man.

Richt does less with more than most any coach in the SEC. UGA currently has more NFL players than any school in the confrence and yet are NEVER in the National Title conversation after the month of October. plus he’s an overly Christian douchebag with a bad haircut.

most people inside Dawg Nation ARE morons. it happens when 90% of the student body are spolied kids from Atlanta suburbs. Richt does less with more than most any coach in the SEC. UGA currently has more NFL players than any school in the confrence and yet are NEVER in the National Title conversation after the month of October. beat Florida and we can maybe talk. plus he’s an overly Christian douchebag with a bad haircut.

o hai orsn,

“Bill Callahan, Nebraska.

How fired is he? So fucking fired. "

My schadenfreude gland is tingling. I have no specific problem with Nebraska, but ever since I had to watch that inflatable bastard mascot of theirs bounce around the sidelines, taunting me with his soulless eyes and evil grin that dark Arizona night in ’96, I enjoy their misfortune greatly.

Aha . . . suicidewatch’s Blogger profile reveals him to be an Auburn fan.

Yes, Auburn fan, please tell us more about why we should fire Richt, and whom we should select to replace him . . . let me see if I can guess: Mike Shula?

Tom Osborne rumored to be interim AD at Nebraska.

Doug, that’s a mighty fine suggestion. I think Shula would work out great for y’all. If he’s not available, I hear Bill Curry doesn’t have much going on.

I don’t understand all the hostility towards Lil’ Red.

Yep. I’m totally watching a webcast of the Chancellor’s press conference firing the AD. He claims the decision was made well before the Okie State game. The needle on my bullshit detector just buried itself.

1. was in reference to Nebraska, if you couldn’t tell.

I love a clean house…the Nebraska coach’s firing is coming up shortly I’m sure and along with the AD’s firing will be a nice, clean house.

This is going to happen at Arkansas as well. Broyles was finally forced out so as to avoid finding his dead body on the carpet of his office one day. And Nutt will be gone the day after Thanksgiving. It will be a very Happy Thanksgiving for Hog fans… not so much for the Nutt’s. Another cleaning of the house! Unless the BOT and the Chancellor like planes flying over their campus pulling banners than say bad things about their head football coach, they will find a new one by the end of the calendar year. I hear the next move by the fan base is going to be the wearing of paper sacks like the old New Orleans Aints fans.

#31, you can’t be “overly Christian” in the Bible Belt.

Hmmm, Nebraska’s current situation karma for dumping the option? They better think about that before they pass over Paul Johnson.

Land of Os(borne) you’re gonna have to keep me updated on that press conference, b/c I have a mac and the KETV website hates Macs. I have a fever, and the only cure is more Pelini.

Doug – his level of douchebaggery in the comments he posted suggested as much. You know, because Tubbs has won so many titles on the plains. I think the realization that their little run is over (Saban) is what has him on suicidewatch …. smirk….

While Richt certainly hasn’t maximized his talent since David Pollack’s Motor That Never Stops left town, no one has the talent-wasting track record that Tommy Bowden has. Want a team that looks like a squad of soul crushers in their uniforms, plays like it for three games in a row, then shits its pants on special teams, in big conference games, against teams that can tackle, well-coached teams, and generally anyone not coached by a fellow Bowden? Tommy’s your man.

Rumor mongering on the internets …

The UW Administration has a meeting scheduled for this afternoon to discuss the Tyrone Willingham “situation”.

Topic of the meeting: WE SUCK!

I’m just making this up, but hopefully someone in charge at the UW will see this post and decide that I know what’s best for the program.

But our run against Florida is just beginning. When is Georgia’s going to start?

No “”http://mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?S=147&F=1361#s=147&f=1361&t=1223565" rel="nofollow">how fired is Ty Willingham?"

Bummer.

Fantastic! HTF do you have the time for all the posts?

I would compare Houston Nutt to a Grignard reagent; if he gets near any organic material, he will spontaneously combust into acid.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grignard

How can they fire Ty Willingham? What are they, racists? Wasn’t ND eeeeevil for letting him go?

i thought that kid from Florida fired Urban Meyer after the Auburn game?

1. he was talking about Kansas PLAYING dead coaches walking, i.e. Nebraska and Aggy. If they tried to get rid of ManJabba, he would sue them for fat-ism.

I’ll take the over by the way. Especially if Pinkel continues his annual October tanking.

I hate Nebraska mainly because of Trev Albert

C’mon guys. Nutt said in his press conference yesterday that his contract runs through 2012. And he said it about 50 times.

@ WDE1972 – You apparently lived through it. Sadly, it remains in the past. But it was such a great run that they still have to win 10 in a row to catch us. But, as you are well aware, all things are cyclical. We will get the upper hand again. Unfortunately, it may not be until 2023…….

Cheers, Raider Red.

There’s no chance Pinkel’s gone before the game in Arrowhead but a loss there would likely overwhelm the good feelings generated thus far in Columbia.

suicidewatch,

Richt has something like the fourth best record in the nation during his tenure. He caught a bad break in 2002 with two teams going undefeated during his one-loss season, unlike LSU in 2003 and UF in 2006. He’s won two SEC titles in six full seasons, though seven looks probable. The idea that he has underacheived is the same kind of bullshit thinking that destroyed Alabama and led to Nebraska’s disastrous Callahan hire.

Funny that the posts about Ty Willingham seem to be from Notre Dame fans.

The more it becomes clear to everybody else that Fat Charile is in over his head and is screwing up the team, the more they obsess about Willingham.

So what you are saying is we get to see the “Pink Slip Bowl” this weekend? Coach Fran and Callahan duke it out to see who gets fired first. The winner gets free resume tutoring from O’Leary.

Pete Carroll should be on this list.
He lost a game with the greatest team ever.

I think drawing parallels between Mark Richt’s tenure at UGa and Frank Solich’s career at NU damned insulting to Mark Richt.

Solich won one title in 6 years. 1. Solich also went 7-7 in his 5th year. Solich’s losses in 2003?

41-21 at Missouri.
31-7 at Texas.
38-9 at KSU.

Biggest win? He beat Penn State — the worst Penn State team evar, which went 3-9 that season.

Frank Solich was only ever good enough to be mediocre, and that generally exceeded his grasp.

You’re right Albino, but he was the most successful coach to be fired that I could think of off the top of my head.

@15 – Yeah, the Dawgs need someone with more emotion on the sidelines, like a Ray Goff! I think he’s available.

Or maybe they need a proven winner, maybe someone that’s won a national championship, like…say…Jim Donnan. I hear he’s available as well.

Or maybe they should just stick with the coach that’s won 2 SEC championships in the last 5 years and finished in the top 5 most of that time.

Nah, that’s no fun. Let’s fire the guy because he has different beliefs. I mean, Nebraska fired that bum Solich because he dared to go 10-3 and we see how well they’re doing now.

One of the main differences between the 2002 Dawgs, the 2003 LSU Tigers and the 2006 Gators is that the Dawgs didn’t get a late season loss from one of the top two teams to make it to the BCS game. If that had happened, who’s to say that the Dawgs wouldn’t have another MNC under their belt? One thing’s for certain, if there hadn’t been late season, unexpected losses in 2003 and 2006, neither of the other teams would have been MNC’s as well. Just see Auburn in 2004.

Damn, I hate it when someone beats me to ALL of my arguments! At least I was the first one to bring up Ray Goff.

No way Muschamp leaves. He just became Tubby’s heir apparent. Why coach at georgia when you can coach the team that beats them?

@69

Good call. It was fun seeing last year’s underachieving Georgia team play Auburn. Loved each time they zoomed in on Muschamp; he had the look of a two-year-old still wearing a diaper he’d pooped in two hours ago.

Being a good DC doesn’t ensure one will be a good head coach. Also, Georgia hung 37 on Muschamp last year.

…but would I trade him for our current DC? no comment.

Nebraska fired Solich for going 9-3. Bo Pelini was the interim head coach when NU rolled Sparty, 17-3. The chants “we want Bo” were long and loud in the 4th quarter of the Alamodome.

We hate nebraska simply because it’s nebraska and if any of you idiots have had to suffer the disgrace of travelling through nebraska you would understand and sammie thinks we are a little obsessed with this hatred but we are obsessed with all of our hatreds and those are many and number among all of the afore-mentioned issues and that’s not going to change even if you do fire me!

@Dr StrangeCock.

Yes it is but Danny Ford wants you to have his baby

right now, the husker faithful are having wet and nasty bogasams over the thought that bo pelini may be coming back to nebraska.

if he does return, it could either be the single greatest thing to happen to the state since the corn chip or the worst thing since… well, osborne retiring i guess.

the thing is, as colossal an ass as billy c. might have been, he has done one thing well: recruit. the problem has been what he does with that talent after they get on campus.

doctor tom knows what’s ailing nebraska. his prescription is forthcoming.

Before any of you other programs consider turning your great defensive coordinator into a head coach, I have two words of warning for you:

Carl Torbush.

Here is what I propose. Richt to FSU when they boot Bobby after this year, Nutt to Georgia because they are nuts, Gailey to Arkansas because they deserve him, Paul Johnson to G. Tech because he is the best guy out there not coaching at a major D1 school, Callahan to the Naval Academy were winning doesn’t matter and Barry Switzer to Nebraska so he can run the bone up Oklahoma’s butt.

1. Biggus:

As an Alabama fan/alum, I do have to disagree with your assessment: misdiagnosing underacheivement didn’t do us in, idiocy did.

Karl Dorrell should be fired. Will he? Good question. A lot of well heeled donors recently told the AD that he wasn’t getting a dime for the Pauley Pavilion renovation until he “fixed” the football program

But just watch the black Steve Lavin beat Cal this weekend

Phil Fulmer is pretty fired as well.

A lot of rumors went around that if he lost to UGA he was a goner, and I imagine that the last two wins bought him a little time, but I don’t think the Alumni are going to swallow losses to Alabama, Arkansas, SC, and Kentucky. I think the odds of us losing to all of these teams is pretty good.

We’re likely to be 6-6 this season I don’t think that’s going to save him. He’s probably only the fourth best coach in the east, and once somebody wises up and gives Trooper Taylor an offensive coordinator position, we’re going to be fucked in recruiting.

Not sure about the wisdom of firing Fulmer, there are a LOT of things I don’t like about him. His offense is not creative at all, and the defense has been terrible lately, but the results have been solid until the last three years.

don’t fire billy c…
Dr. Osbourne – AD
Bo P. – Head Coach
Billy C. – Offensive Coord.

Pelini will NEED an offensive coordinator, Callahan needs some defensive (he might be well suited for an off. coord. position), and husker nation needs a motivated leader as athletic director.

Houston Nutt is the next head coach of USF. You heard it here first. Grothe leaves to coach Nebraska and Nutt heads south.

C’mon guys! You actually fell for the Buddy Ryan story? One of my friends made that story up to rile up gullible Husker fans. The guy is 74 years old, his wife is on her death bed, and he hasn’t coached in 10 years. I don’t think he’s going anywhere!

Here is an obvious one, Greg Robinson at Syracuse. Rumors are that the AD Gross has already began the search. If he loses to Buffalo at home on Saturday, he probably won’t last till Sunday.

Also, Georgia hung 37 on Muschamp last year.

They actually only hung 30 (a Pick-6 isn’t the fault of the deefense), and UGA had short fields for most of the game, due to Cox throwing 4 INT’s. But, yes, 446 yard of total offense is damning, no matter which way you slice it.

defense*

1. - That’s a pretty impressive theory for Nebraska. Just one question though . . .

Why would Nebraska hire a sophmore QB as a head coach? And how could Nutt coach at USF if Leavitt is still here?

-Just poking fun, I knew what yer gettin’ at.

Nutt NEEDS to go.
Like now.
Like soon.

To say that he is delusional would be an insult to sociopaths everywhere

I thought Houston Nutt was already fired? I swear on Youtube I heard Wil Muschamp say, “That f..king Mother f..ker is fired!”

if not Bo Pelini,Turner Gill is the man. Solich’s mistake at Nebr. was not making Turner offensive cord. Univ. Buffalo has four w’s!!!! that’s a f___g miracle !!!!
  Monte Kiffin can revive the blackshirts.
