People still like Major Applewhite? No thank you on him, Ed I and June Jones. Ed O gets you put on the ncaa watch list for recruiting violations immediately and June Jobes is to old. Need a young coach with something to lose. I do like Ron Roberts and Brian Jenkins and Turner Gill are interesting.Quote:

I think applewhite REALLY wants the smu job.
In my opinion Applewhite has never done anything to warrant a head coaching job. Might make w great HC but he was very overrated as an OC.Quote:

P.S. Hud ain't going anywhere, no need to worry.
Just my opinion, but that assessment is mostly correct for him to be in serious contention for any SEC head coaching job. Either that, or at least something like a 11-1 season where the one loss is to a big-time school.Quote:

BUT...I want at least 11-1 before he decides to take off. :)
I agree, while big upsets wins never hurt, it is not a deal breaker like most think. Here are a few more recent examples beside Freeze and Malzahn of bigger programs taking successful G5 coaches despite not having any big "signature wins":Quote:

Al Golden was hired at Miami from Temple. Temple was in the MAC and had no signature wins while he was there.
Brady Hoke was hired at Michigan from San Diego State. No big signature wins there. He had a win against Indiana several years before while at Ball State. He coached at Michigan from 1995-2002.
Mark Dantonio was hired at Michigan State from Cincinnati. No big signature OOC wins there and they were still in Conference USA at the time. He was DB coach at MSU years earlier for 5 years.
These guys all had a few things in common. They won where ever they were, they built/rebuilt programs, they were young and some had some sort of tie to the school. Those seem to be more important. Schools like Kentucky, Oregon, Florida and Texas Tech hire guys who have never even been a head coach (therefore technically have ZERO signature wins) so it all depends on what route they want to go.
And then ....

If Mullen goes we might as well start looking for another coach. That's just my opinion.Quote:

Even better, when someone starting a coaching staff this year is looking for a DC...Diaz is gone. What is Skippy gonna do without his saving grace?Quote:

His epic choke job on national TV will keep a few schools away.Quote:

I like the thought of Jenkins coming back, if and only if Hud leaves.
For those of you interested, Ricky Bustle is having a great year as OC at NC A&T, in Greensboro, NC. Where I live. They are 9-2 overall and 6-1 in conference and a win this weekend vs. NC Central would give them the MEAC conference championship. They are averaging 34 points per game. They have a loss to a very good Coastal Carolina team and also they lost to SC State earlier in the year.
It looks like we are running a Cajun version of the, Fly Sweep offense.Quote:

Whle I don't think Florida would do it, I've seen Hud's name mentioned on two lists. There are many lists of 3-5 and he obviously hasn't been on those, but I've seen a list with 13 potential candidates and another with 15. And he was on both.
It is laughable that people actually think Hudspeth is getting the Florida job
For real. Florida is going to be in the same situation that Texas was this past season.Quote:
