arkansas needs to find a guy who has not yet been head coach, but is ready to make the leap. they need an up and comer, either an OC, or a DC.

but arkansas has a horrible habit of running off some pretty good coaches who have produced for them.

lou holtz, nolan richardson, houston and of course stan heath--he got the heave ho when a BIG name in b'ball was looking to make a change. oops. he had no interest in coming here however.

Well he has to get fired by the Falcons first. That may take another year. Though he may rather go to Miami or FSU if not back to Louisville.

I am not so sure that ol Jimbo is a lock. They may just be defering to BB but if they have a 4-8 season I can see the whole thing blown up and Bowden and his guy forced out. Why couldn't you see Petrino at Miami? He is a perfect fit.

i have a feeling someone approached fisher, and that's why fsu came out with the 'he's our guy when bowden leaves' line. i thought a year ago when they hired him that they were just prepping for their future. i think BB is just trying to outlast paterno.

Apparenlty Jimbo is in a buyout situation, just like a head coach now. If he leaves he owes the school money, if they don't higher him as the next head coach they owe him money. Not sure any figure was discussed, but it was said to be in the millons.

i'm probably wrong but i don't see petrino putting up with that gangster mentallity that ends up at miami.

other than fisher and the o-line coach, that fsu staff is old and been together along time, off and on through the years. if they lose 6-7 games again, i could see them blowing the whole thing up and i think petrino would be a better fit at fsu than miami.

if fisher has an "out clause" in his contract, i'm sure it's for wvu. i can't see that being open anytime soon.

Rumor had it, Richie Rod had an out clause for Clemson. Had Bowden left, thats where the Tiger admin would have turned too...again, just a rumor that had been going around Death Valley.

that would make some sense. the offenses and personnel would be VERY similar, other than clemson's D is better. coach rod is a wvu guy i don't think he is going anywhere. i'd be shocked if he did.

paul johnson leaving navy for georgia tech, effective immediately. the navy DC will coach the team for the bowl game. should be interest for navy johnson called alot of plays for the navy offense.

Petrino is all about the gangster. He took in many questionable recruits at Louisville. How do you think they got so good so fast? I dont think he would want to follow Bowden.
