Hope to Hazell.... grats to purdue fans. Out with the bad and in with the good. Sort of shocked he couldn't get something better but knew he had to take something this year before clock strikes midnight on kent state.

Media saying Y! Sports reporting Charlie Strong staying at Louisville not reading carefully. UL optimistic, not certainhttp://yhoo.it/Yy1ALE

Doesn't sound good.

Two reasons why Strong declined the job. Which one is it?
1.) the ACC will be an easier path to a championship game?
2.) UT is antiquated?

I don't understand what you are saying. He left to use Arky St as a stepping stone to a bigger job down the road. You normally have to go to a lesser school to get the bigger job you desire which is exactly what happened. What's weird about it?

When he left Auburn they were off a Natty. I'm sure he didn't see himself replacing Chizik at that time so he needed to move on in order to be the man somewhere.

I didnt see him going back to Auburn....I'm sure many Auburn alum's didnt either. Just a bit of a suprising hire to me. Maybe I am alone.
Did they call Kirby?

When the smoke clears I believe you will see Al Golden at UT.

Mario Cristobal was fired? Wow. Didn't he turn down so bigger jobs last year and get extended ala Shaka Smart?

Golden has been linked to the Wisconsin job as well if Chryst isn't interested.

rumor from what account?

Head of Alabama Department of Decision-Making
Auburn offensive recruiting all kinds of messed up after switching from spread to pro style back to spread in 18 months. Re: possible NCAA sanctions, there still could be penalties looming and Gus was hired to weather the storm so they can hire Petrino in 4 years.
There was an interview with Smart, and it reportedly went well enough that Saban was looking for possible DC replacement, but Kirby made some demands that AU wasn't willing to meet: full disclosure on NCAA investigation, full control on staff hires, and he wanted to coach in the championship game.

That is a terrible firing. Who in the hell do the Golden Panthers think they are? This guy brought them out of the dark ages and into bowl games.

Ya that fiu firing is harsh. Sure, he did one of the worst coaching jobs of the year but his career there should have allowed him to survive. Loyalty doesn't exist either direction it seems.
UT fans should get on their hands and knees and beg Fulmer for forgiveness,,,,,

And that is the real reason he is leaving whether its spoken or not. If he wasn't going to beat oosOSU in Meyer's first season, he sure wasn't going to do it with much regularity going forward, and its a divisional game so he can't avoid them. I'm sure the Razorback money didn't hurt, but he knows deep down that he - and Wisconsin - have hit their heads against the glass ceiling with these last few Rose Bowl trips. Nothing left to do, no more upward mobility. At least if he gets beaten by Saban and Miles its a built-in excuse cause nobody will expect him to win those games or those recruiting battles.

He was a few hail mary's ( made against him ) short of playing for a national title at wisconsin. He won't sniff that at Arkansas in the foreseeable future.
Was talking with buddy on aim .. wondering if this is bielema returning the favor to Alvarez. Friend said that he heard that Alvarez wanted to get back into coaching ... Alvarez handpicked him ... maybe this is just returning the favor.

What could Golden do in Texas? He has the best area of the country to recruit from in Florida and he hasn't done shit with the U. I hope he does go to Texas.

He replied to a comment thatTexas wanted him but my thoughts are the same concerning Wisky. Why would he go there or better yet, why would they want him?

Can we give Golden a little time in Miami before we claim he hasn't done "shit."
I'm beyond impressed with how Hazell has presented himself today. I might personally drive up to Boulder to thank Bohn & crew for tieing up Butch Jones for a couple days so that Burke could wise up and get the deal done with Hazell. Curious to see who he brings in...he's got around 2.6 million (or at least I think he does) to divvy out to the staff.

You guys are ridiculous with your theory that Bielema left because of Urban Meyer. This is about taking Wisconsin as high as it will get, a chance to win a National Championship and Money.

Apparently Fedora. Two players have confirmed a team meeting tomorrow.

... Well, the semester ended today and with no bowl game to play, it could be a "this is what I expect from you over the next few weeks" kinda meeting. Who the F knows.
