Around SBN: Notre Dame's Turnaround: How Have The Irish Done It?

COACHING CAROUSEL IS THE LEAST FUN RIDE IN THE PARK

While Lane Kiffin gets acclimated in Knoxville...

--Illinois assistant coach Mike Locksley will be come the new coach at New Mexico. Locksley will be up the current black head coach count to 4, though [NAME REDACTED] has lobbied to be given honorary status for the additional recruiting cachet it would provide.

--Turner Gill is also a "serious candidate" for the Auburn coaching job. Sad, though, since Patrick Nix is so obviously the perfect and inarguably fit candidate for the job, and is just seconds away from taking his rightful place wearing Tuberville's headset.

--Steve Sarkisian was officially introduced as the new coach at Washington, where he said energy youth enthusiasm excitement yeah rah go excited.

--Al Groh is gangsta as fuck.

1,000 cocktails to Freek. God, I’m dying, even though it probably shouldn’t be that funny.

If Auburn hires Nix it deserves the 4-8 seasons it will get for 3 years before firing him. Syracuse appears dumb enough to pass up on Gill, who already has NE recruiting connections; Auburn needs to money-whip him NOW.

This may be Freek’s best effort in months — and that’s saying something.

Not only did Groh go gangsta on his own kid, I’m told he also promoted Bob Pruett as part of this shake-up. Keep this in mind when developing your pre-season top ten for the Fulmer Cup.

Somebody whisper to Al Groh that Woody McCorvey is available. Hey, his offense was #101 this year, the best in 5 years!!! And that’s a big improvement over #106!!!

I’m pretty sure that Groh’s meeting with his kid went something like this:

And everyone in suburban Dallas is wonder why this fat asshole is laughing so hard.

Cheers to you, Mr. Freek

’Sup with his tie?

Is that a Tennersee thing?

If Lowder hires Nix, he deserves an 0-11 season to prove just how fucking dumb he is. If Miami is getting Gus Malzahn, they are going to be 10x better next year.

If you are going to interview Gill, why not Charlie Strong? What the hell?

I’m intrigued by Washington passing on Leach though. He took his wife up there, which is usually a big sign, and seemingly the next day he was out of it and they went to Sark. Something is up there.

@ 10: Kiffykins is getting fashion lessons from Jesse Palmer. You think that thing reaches his belt buckle? No sir!

Also, someone posted that Rodney Garner at UGA and AU alum might be interviewing for AU job.

Why is no-one discussing PSU? Is Paterno going to be back?

by az_gatorz on Dec 8, 2008 5:39 PM EST reply actions  

UVa opening might work out well for Ron Prince…he gets his old job back, and he can continue to not worry about the things he didn’t worry about at K-State – like the defense and retaining coaching staff.

General,

Can you pull some strings and send them Willie instead?

Thank you, SIR!

After closer inspection of the photo, it’s pretty clear he’s wearing Randy Quaid’s Amish outfit from “Kingpin,” sans the hat.

The names that come from our administration scare the hell out of me:

Jimbo Fisher
Houston Nutt
Patrick Nix

I like Turner Gill and Charlie Strong but that dog swears he’ll switch to Saban if we hire them.

I’ve come to terms with the fact that the powers that be fired Tubs with no plan other than finishing what they started in 2003.

Super cool Barnes & Knoxville sign. And I like what was done to Locksley’s suit (it looks like origami!).

According to the Gainesville Sun, both the OBC and [Name Redacted] voted UF No. 2 in the polls. If either had voted for UF as No. 1, we would have ended up No. 1 in the coaches poll. Seriously though, I would have thought that the beatdown at the Swamp would have convinced SOS to vote us No. 1.

“The only reason I voted Oklahoma No. 1 was because they lost to Texas and Florida lost to Ole Miss,” Spurrier said. "Tell everybody it was only because of who each team lost to.

“You know who we should have all voted for? Whoever is favored in the game.”

Not that it really matters at this point – but interesting.

Are my eyes deceiving me or is there someone under the Go Vols sign?

I think he’s going to have to get a smaller headset, Tuberville’s would swallow him whole
