    Matt Rhule's new buyout is $71MM! Dude is 0-18 vs ranked opponents at Baylor and Nebraska

    I would doubt there are any coaches that have only ever had 9+ wins in each and every season they've been a head coach.

    Big 10 Pay-to-View only?

    YouTubeTV brings value to the table, far above just access to particular content. - quality of stream (this is massive to me ... definition/clarify of the picture, smoothness/lack of glitches ..... I've tried some other streaming in the past and YTTV crushed them in terms of quality) - DVR...

    I didn't know Fergus was large enough to be 4A .. .but then again I may be overthinking what 4A even means, now with six classes.

    Howard Sinker: You want another raise, P.J. Fleck? Do better in 2026.

    All Things P.J. Fleck Rumor Mill Thread - Listed as Candidate for Other Jobs

    Drake would go with him, if Fleck went there. There is absolutely zero doubt. The doubt is entirely on if he would go there or not. I could imagine it, if they offered him $10M/year. And if they would offer Fleck that, then they'd offer any coach that. The question for Fleck would be: what...

    This is a fireable offense

    OK. You were using ho-hum to mean "indifference", the agreed up secondary definition of the word. Thanks for clarifying. 7-5 record would guarantee that we would not play in a lower tier bowl game. Just as with last year's 7-5 record we played in the Mayo bowl, which is not a lower tier bowl...

    This is a fireable offense

    You brought up hindsight and I agreed that it was hindsight. In hindsight, Indiana didn't accomplish a single thing of note in the 2024 season, other than beat a bunch of teams that they could have still beaten (perhaps by a smaller margin) without having Cignetti or as talented of a roster as...

    Matt Rhule's new buyout is $71MM! Dude is 0-18 vs ranked opponents at Baylor and Nebraska

    To me, the tale of Rhule's head coaching narrative is that at every college he's been at there has been a sharp upwards trajectory in the first three years. And then Temple he sustained that high level in year 4. We don't know how Nebraska will end up this year, of course. Huge game tonight...

    Matt Rhule's new buyout is $71MM! Dude is 0-18 vs ranked opponents at Baylor and Nebraska

    Massive game tomorrow for Neb. Night game. In Lincoln. Top 25 USC. Rhule has it right in front of him tomorrow night. Let's see if it gets it done.

    Matt Rhule's new buyout is $71MM! Dude is 0-18 vs ranked opponents at Baylor and Nebraska

    Also keep in mind that the OP is defining ranked wins as ranking at the time of playing each game. For example, in 2019 Texas ended the season ranked #25 in the nation. Baylor beat Texas that year. Shouldn't that count as a ranked win? In my book, I think that's fair. I'm not sure how anyone...

    Athletic: There are far more college football jobs on the market than quality coaches

    Let's say that Cignetti talked Cuban into bankrolling the IU roster. Let's say he even kicked in $5-10M of his own money, per year. That much is still a huge chunk of change ... so even that much I could see as too much for one guy, despite how rich he is. What did he get out of it? What was...

    This is a fireable offense

    Certainly it is a backwards looking metric. I don't see how that defeats my point. You look back upon the 2024 season, at the end of it, and you can confidently conclude that Indiana only played two difficult games the whole season. They split those. Then were non-competitive in their one...

    This is a fireable offense

    It's not my fault that you're misusing and probably don't know the correct definition of ho-hum. It means: ho-hum /ˌhōˈhəm/ exclamation exclamation: ho-hum used to express boredom or resignation. That's not 7-5. And that record would not be a "lower tier" bowl. Those are like the Detroit bowls.

    This is a fireable offense

    49% 8-4 (win all three ... Oregon is foregone conclusion) 49% 7-5 (lose @ NW) 0.99% 6-6 (lose @ NW and one of the home games) 0.01% 57 (lose all three) :)
