I'll get the ball rolling. Sumlin got canned:

With a VT loss, does Fuente get the boot?

I don't know if he gets canned in the pandemic year. Not clear on his contract/buyout.

But seems like yesterday him and Herman were the hot names on the market. Neither seems to be working out.

Don’t think you have to worry about VT losing tonight with the way the game has been so far. But regardless, I wouldn’t be shocked to see a new coach in Blacksburg next season.

I feel like Hugh Freeze will probably be one of the more sought after candidates this offseason.

Arky st players will soon be "winning at life", if not on the gridiron:

Gus Malzahn fired by Auburn after 8 seasons as football coach

After eight seasons, two SEC West crowns, a conference title and a trip to the BCS National Championship game, Auburn is making a change.

Finally got him down to an affordable buyout, I guess.

The problem is who are they gonna get?

Auburn? Prolly whoever they want that's available. It's a good job, imo. List might include some of the usual suspects like Napier at LaLa. Doubt they'd hire Freeze.

 

[lilchi721]

Doubt they'd hire Freeze.

Well the problem is they really want Freeze.

 

[JohnShadows]

Wouldn't be surprised. Though I'm not sure what he brings to the table that Gus didn't have. Prolly Napier from LaLa will be in the conversation.

 

[QuestionSocratic]

Auburn is one of the top jobs in CFB. There'll be plenty of people who want to get this one as it'll likely pay very well.

You could argue that Saban and Alabama in the SEC West makes it tough to win. But that didn't hold Kiffin and Leach back from taking jobs.

I'd bet on Matt Campbell.

Napier really doesn't move the needle like a Hugh Freeze

The Nick Saban School of Rehabilitating Coaches going to be full this year.

Gus Malzahn, come on down!

He doesn’t move his needle into hookers, either.

Are there any Escort services in Auburn that arent run by the animal husbandry dept?

 

[JohnShadows]

Ray Tanner (USC AD) stupidly didn't renegotiate Muschamp's extension to lower the buyout if he took another coaching job. So I expect him to pop up as DC somewhere in the SEC.

Kristi Malzahn: Gus was like, shut up!
