Dave Hyde who covers the Canes for the Orlando Sentinel reports that Dan Mullen has interviewed as well and that Mark Richt is expected to today. We had been told yesterday that Miami would like to have a decision no later than tomorrow.

Yawn
Yep. Que sera, sera.
---on 2 - 3 occasions I HAVE TALKED TO MSU FANS AND I WAS VERY SURPRISED THAT THEY KNEW WHO HUD WAS AND -----SORRY ABOUT THE CAP FREAKS----REALLY THOUGHT HE TO BE THE HEIR APPARENT FOR THE STATE JOB----Obviously not a random sample of significance, but non the less an interesting point!!!Quote:

Mullen ain't moving, neither is Hud. I think Richt or Christobal would be great at Miami.
Miami ain't hiring Christobal. He is entirely too familiar with their Shapiro scandal.Quote:

Good point. He has made UNC a very relevant program in a very short time.Quote:

You also get to watch better basketball.
At UNC...if he builds a winner...do they pay him like one? Roundball rules the roost on Tobacco Road...but if they beat Clemson Saturday...there is a high possibility UNC gets in the 4 team playoff. For a school that puts all its eggs in one basket...could be time to diversify.Quote:

Grass isn't always greener...but the yard isn't looking that good anymore.Quote:

Not saying it should matter but I'm willing to bet good money UNC doesn't make it regardless of win.Quote:

I haven't seen a non-SEC school get the title game push while not being conference champ since Oklahoma got the nod in 2003 over USC. Internal pressure by the conferences themselves will also be exerted...how ____ed would the ACC be if they lost out on a playoff spot?Quote:

Seeing as the P5 conferences conspired to create the playoff...they would exert pressure to take the conference champions if it got close at all.Quote:
