According to FoxSports, the Detroit Lions have fired head coach Steve Mariucci. I know that is NFL news, but we here at EDSBS.com wonder what that means for the college coaching ranks as more teams try to recreate the Pete Carroll experience (lack-luster NFL coach into college genius). Let the rumor mill begin. We'll add to it by pointing out the obvious: He's good friends with Tom Izzo you know, and John L. Smith hasn't exactly worked out like the Spartans hoped.
