Re: Coaching carousel
Depending on the definition of a "road recruiting trip", I can see sticking close to Miami...there's so much talent down there. Same uniforms for nine years...that doesn't sound like a good thing

Re: Coaching carousel
FIU was using hand-me-down shoulder pads from Mississippi State. My goodness.

Interesting. Some just tweeted FIU 2019-2020 Operating Expenses over $14 million. Highest in CUSA for only football.

Re: Coaching carousel
Someone is obviously profiting from that. I smell an investigation coming.

Re: Coaching carousel
It is Miami...Hookers and blow? Or is that a little too Miami Vice 1986 for today?

Re: Coaching carousel
Justin Fuente is out at Virginia Tech. It is shocking to me that he didn't work out there - he hit it big both on offense and defense one state over at Memphis and recruited the same area. It all on paper should have worked.
I've read an opinion piece that Virginia Tech should go after Dave Clawson. Not sure how likely he is to leave Wake, and it would be a real embarrassment for VT to get rejected in favor of a small private school in the same conference.

Re: Coaching carousel
I think people underestimate how much money Clawson makes at Wake. I think it would take the likes of USC or LSU for him to depart this off-season, and out of those jobs I could really only see him leaving for USC. Private school expecting a rebuild. That’s his bread and butter.MarkL wrote: ↑Tue Nov 16, 2021 9:13 am Justin Fuente is out at Virginia Tech.

I wonder if Dan Mullen, an assistant here under Urban Meyer, is going to last much longer at Florida.

Re: Coaching carousel
Assuming Harbaugh departs Michigan...Clawson would be a great fit at Michigan...but why jump into that mess when you're basically contracted for the rest of your career at Wake?

Re: Coaching carousel
I take it with an appropriately sized grain of salt. Supposedly LSU is offering Lincoln Riley a huge offer. Weird since he'll be coaching in the SEC soon, for a program that has seen far more playoff bids and is a generally better recognized brand.
Grain of salt. My best guess is the next coach will either be Dave Aranada or Mel Tucker.
