No destination has been mentioned as 100% happening. However, this is the difference between an AD and someone that would be at the corner bar saying " Woe is me". A contingency plan in place. It's this kind of management is why I trust Maggard's decisions, even if a decision is unpopular.
Re: Coaching carrousel has begun
So can anyone tell me what is Napier’s buyout?

There's a new one every hour, which leads me to believe there is a ton of speculation going on and not very much substance.
https://247sports.com/Article/Larry-...SEC-139835236/
"The coaching carousel is starting to heat up in the college football world, and former North Carolina coach and current Texas analyst Larry Fedora is the latest name to be thrown into it.
According to Brad Logan of the Clarion Ledger, Fedora is a name being mentioned for the opening at Ole Miss after the school fired Matt Luke on Sunday night."

I don't remember the exact details, but I believe it was just north of $2M.

I'm not saying he'll take that job over an SEC gig. But if he can make 200% more money for a year or two and then get that SEC job then I don't see why he wouldn't take it. Like you all said, it's a lateral move. However, that lateral move is paying way more.
It’s a basketball school, trying to be a big boy in football. They will regress as a program, regardless of the coach. It’s the natural order of things.

Norvell seems to be in a pretty damn good position with that stepping stone.
