So Odom getting the blame at Mizzou or do you guys still have faith in him?
People have turned on him pretty fast, especially with the latest string of de-commits. If he somehow wins out of finishes 3-1 he'll be safe but he's gone if they don't win at least two of these last four.

I still think he's growing into the job, but if they could get Matt Campbell I'd prefer that.

lol Florida fires a coach who has won the East (yes I know the SEC east sucks) 2 years in a row and Tennessee won't fire their coach who blew his one chance to win the east with their most talented team in years and says stupid shit like "champions of life" and "5 star heart"

If you're going to offer someone $10 mil a year, I'd at least check with Saban or Urban. That's a ton to invest in a guy who hasn't been a college head coach and who hasn't coached in general in like 10 years.

Gruden couldn't do any worse

Yeah, he could. No experience recruiting, and talent evaluation isn't really his thing either. And he's been out of coaching for 10 years. Do you know how much the game has changed in a decade? Not only would he have to adjust from a pro to college mentality, he'd have to adapt to a game that kept evolving while he was in the announcers booth.

I don't know if I should be proud or embarrassed that UGA cost McElwain his job.

True it is more a recruiting game than anything... But I still think he could do it but I don't see him being the HC

Also, I'm sure this has already been said, but there's no way McElwain should have got the boot before Butch Jones. I understand Tennessee might be a little gun shy after what happened when they ran Fulmer out of town, but unlike Fulmer, this time, it's clear Butch is not the right man for the job.

Gruden won't come back to coaching to be an assistant. And no school is gonna put a 10 million per year offer on the table for an assistant either.

Probably not but panic time maybe (Florida wants to win right now) but I don't think they will panic right now

Tennessee officials have been discussing it this afternoon

I'm sure he will be out tomorrow

Then quit being pussies and fire your current coach?

AD said won’t do anything till after season. Doesn’t mean stuff isn’t happening behind the scenes.

Missouri is somehow -2 against Florida this week.

I imagine that'll change.
