Nutriaitch Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 will probably move some of the discussion from the "Games of Interest" thread to this one. while not directly, some of these changes will potentially affect LSU. either it being a future opponent, or maybe a poaching of our assistants, etc. so fired FBS coaches (so far) Scott Frost - Nebraska Herm Edwards - Arizona State Geoff Collins - Georgia Tech Paul Chryst - Wisconsin Karl Dorrell - Colorado and of course there will be others.

LSUDad Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Put this one right here. John Cohen is officially hired as Auburn’s new athletics director, according to a report from Jon Sokoloff of WCBI, which followed several earlier reports that the deal was imminent. Cohen, who has been the AD at MSU since November of 2016, would take over for Allen Greene, who left Auburn in late August. Prior to that, he was the Bulldogs’ head baseball coach from 2009-16. Greene stepped down with 5 months remaining on his initial 5-year deal, and was perhaps most remembered for his hire of Bryan Harsin.

LSUDad Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Auburn is looking for another coach after it parted ways with Bryan Harsin. The potential names to replace him are some of the biggest in college football, and certainly household names around the SEC. While the Opelika-Auburn News has come out with 22 candidates, nationally, the names often discussed are Liberty’s Hugh Freeze, and Jackson State’s Deion Sanders, along with Ole Miss’ Lane Kiffin. Other more dark-horse type names could be Matt Rhule, who was recently fired from the Carolina Panthers, or Dave Aranda of Baylor. Freeze last week signed a contract extension at Liberty which would pay him $5 million per season for 8 years, ESPN reported. Meanwhile, in recent interviews with 60 Minutes and ESPN, Sanders has said he would listen about openings for Power 5 jobs, and he was most interested in how he could elevate the pay for his assistants. Here are all the names mentioned by the Opelika-Auburn News: Doug Elk, Houston defensive coordinator Jamey Chadwell, Coastal Carolina coach Liam Coen, Los Angeles Rams offensive coordinator Josh Gattis, Miami offensive coordinator Alex Golesh, Tennessee offensive coordinator Jeff Grimes, Baylor offensive coordinator Mike Gundy, Oklahoma State coach Charles Kelly, Alabama defensive assistant Lane Kiffin, Ole Miss coach Rhett Lashlee, SMU coach Mike Leach, Mississippi State coach Jeff Lebby, O klahoma offensive coordinator Lance Leipold, Kansas coach Dell McGee, Georgia running backs coach Todd Monken, Georgia offensive coordinator Will Muschamp, Georgia co-defensive coordinator Bill O’Brien, Alabama offensive coordinator Matt Rhule, former Carolina Panthers coach Travaris Robinson, Alabama cornerbacks coach Deion Sanders, Jackson State coach Mark Stoops, Kentucky coach Travis Williams, UCF defensive coordinator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote New UCF football coach Gus Malzahn signed a five-year, $11.5 million agreement to lead the Knights, according to a memorandum of understanding dated Monday and obtained by the Orlando Sentinel. Malzahn will receive annual guaranteed compensation of $2.3 million, which includes $500,000 in base salary and $1.8 million for radio and television shows, speaking engagements and product endorsements. He is eligible for performance incentives up to $500,000 annually for the football team’s academic and on-field success. https://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/ucf-knights/os-sp-ucf-gus-malzahn-salary-buyout-0216-20210215-m5a6ercybremjohnb7py6xq7fu-story.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
