So should we be jealous of Central Michigan?

I'm not.

I think it's cool that experienced brand name coaches (Frank Solich, Terry Bowden, and now this guy) have been finding a home in our league. I'm just not sure we needed to do that.

Now that is a shocker, Akron firing Bowden one year removed from winning the MAC east and after beating Northwestern. Everybody knew they would slide some, 4-8 is reasonable. Talk about ungrateful.

I bet Akron gives Luke Getsy a call. I wouldn't hire him but he's an alum.

Mike Houston takes a five-year deal with ECU. Charlotte has got to be upset about that.

Back story on the Central Michigan opening: Apparently, John Bonamego's wife got into such a heated dispute with the Chippewa play-by-play announcer that she was banned from Kelly/Shorts Stadium in mid-season.

I am stunned McElwain was not fired with cause from Florida. He claimed he received death threats from Florida fans. Then couldn't back it up. He lied and made the fanbase look like a bunch of crazies.
That to me is a red flag I cannot ignore. Good luck, Central Michigan.
