How in the F is Houston gonna sway Dana Holgerson away from WVU? I mean Fertita got some money, but he’ll have to shell out $4M plus a year.

If I was in charge at Miami, I would contact Neal Brown at Troy. That guy has an explosive offense and he can recruit the Southeast.

Our understanding was the interview went well.

Cristobal just signed a top 10 class at Oregon and his buyout is $10M for the next month, and then drops to $8M. Don't see it happening.

It was announced this evening that Houston fired Applewhite. He has $1.8 remaining on his contract. No mention of possible hires.

They fired him for losing to just about every decent team they have played this year. Their best win was a mediocre Notre Dame team. Liberty was just the final straw.

Dayum.

Footballscoop.com

After an 18-day stint as Temple’s head coach, Diaz will return to his home town as Miami’s head coach.

The AP’s Tim Reynolds was the first to report the Diaz hiring was done.

The Richt retirement came at an obviously inconvenient time for Miami and its new head coach, given Diaz had taken another job and promptly signed 17 future Temple Owls who are now without a head coach. As a parting gift, Miami will pay Temple a $4 million buyout to pry Diaz out of his the-ink-is-still-drying contract.

Those ethical hurdles aside, the Miami job is Diaz’s dream gig, & dream jobs don’t come open every day.

With Diaz now gone, Temple has now lost five head coaches to Power 5 jobs this decade — two of them to Miami. Al Golden left Philadelphia for South Beach after the 2010 season. Golden’s 2015 firing set the wheels in motion for Miami to hire Richt, who brought Diaz aboard as his defensive coordinator.
