HUMAN RESOURCES SAYS YOU'RE BEHIND ON YOUR PAPERWORK
A rapid overview of the ever-shifting sands of college football's HR sphere is overdue.
Dan Mullen will coach the national title game and Urb's feeling real, real secure about that:
"I think he's going to coach," Meyer said. "I talked to him yesterday, and right now, the plan is for him to come back after Christmas. We've talked about it. The goal is to win the game.
"Right now, unless something changes, it looks like that's going to happen.
Coaching, he means. Not a guaranteed win over the Sooners. Just to clarify. Even if there are rumbles about Oklahoma DL Demarcus Granger needing back surgery emanating from the back channels of these internets.
Turner Gill, it should be noted, has like Toyotathon been extended due to overwhelming demand in Buffalo.
Scott Schafer will be discontinued as the defensive coordinator at Michigan, bringing speculation in gouts from MGo. All other discussion aside, it would be very, very odd to us if Rodriguez didn't at least attempt to poach 3-3-5'in Jeff Casteel from WVU, thus subjecting them to further embargo from any and all West Virginia products. (Deer salad and ramp is off the menu for you, sir and madam!)
Weis, getting axe-y. Included in this laundry list: Charlie's likely to hand out the pink slips in flurries over the next few weeks. Merry Christmas!

So will the Toledo fans claim to have “processed” Coach Schafer?

Schafer…the coach to have when you’re having more than one.

Latina should be fired (and perhaps gently strangled in his sleep) but taking out a guy named Jappy risks opening ND to further charges of racism from both Japanese and Jewish groups.

I hope Weis gives some of his tremendously undeserved bonus/extension money to any of the coaches he fires. They’re obviously not getting it done, but neither is he.

Harris – You’re approaching the stratospheric quality of your EDSBSLive comments with that one.

If you can stand to drink that swill. They used to sell it for 99 cents a six pack in Mississippi back in the early 70s. Jax at $1.09 was somewhat more palatable.

Harris @ 6 – Actually, Jappy’s mother is from Cuernavaca, and his name is really pronounced “Happy.” So it’s the National Council of La Raza you’d need to worry about – that and the total disruption of the laundry service on campus in South Bend. Can’t do the parquet dance with dirty undies, after all.

I’m okay with the Mullen thing – as long as we don’t get Richt’d, Richt’d over, or Richt’d up with the playcalling.

Out of the group named, I don’t think Oliver or Haywood will get the ax, but Latina and Mendoza seem likely. They also are much, much more deserving. Given the fact that Oliver’s turned out a fair amount of NFL-bound talent on the D-Line, I feel he’s got some job security. As for Haywood, there are pros and cons, but overall he’s done an ok job, given that every aspect of the team failed in some way, shape, or form, and firing him would be pinning way too much blame in one place.

After 3 days on the Plains, I hear Chiznip is interested in the D- Coordinator job at Michigan…

latina is a horrible coach and deserves to be fired, but then again, so does weis…which is why i’m glad turner gill is sticking around buffalo next season – in the off-chance that urban doesn’t leave the jort kingdom next year for Our Lady, i’d like to see ND hire gill and say “see, we’re not racist – here’s another black guy!”
speaking of jorts, uf cornerback Joe Haden is taking the message board “OMG SEC DEFENSES ARE TEH ALLSOME #1 YA!” smacktalk off the internets and into ye olde newspapers – this pleases me greatly

See, Mr. Erickson, it is permissible to whack underperforming assistants after their horrible performance knocks the wheels out from under your entire season (I’m looking at YOU, OC Rich Olson and OL coach Gregg Smith!!!)

@OhioDawg: And then I was almost immediately topped by DCTrojan. USC is beating ND in everything these days.

Time to see whether the Irish assistants are the problem…next year will be an interesting one for Irish fans

Urban and Bob apparantly have made a deal that for every coach florida losses, OU will have a player go under the knife
by okiedomer on Dec 17, 2008 3:07 PM EST reply actions
Likewise, Uncle Billy needs to follow Wies’ s example and fire OC Jeff Mullen at WVU. Dude did a horrible job this year and effectively ruined Pat White’s season. If Stewart isn’t getting shit-canned, Mullen most certainly should be.
Or hit with a beer truck. I’ll take either one, frankly.

Harris @ 14 – aw shucks. I’m just playing up to the level of the opposition in this case.

I thought UF had only lost one coach and OU two players?
