2025-26 College Football Coach Fired/Hired Thread


This explains a few things.

Anyone remember a few years back where that OL from MN went to Nebby and following a snap during a game he remained in the set position the entire play? I believe this was prior to Raiola, but that shit was weird and funny as hell because I think he was a mad shit talker about the Gophs. Bernhardt or something?

It's kind of weird. I don't remember anyone I knew going to school in Iowa at all, but a lot my co-workers kids went to ISU. I wonder if reciprocity agreements changed?
The Minnesota guarantee, changing demographics and decreased enrollment all around has caused our neighboring states to really incentivize out of state tuition. SD for instance charges in state tuition to MN kids. I'm sure Iowa has done something similar.

Just doing quick Google search, I don't see anything at ISU other than resident and nonresident. Another quick Google search shows that Iowa is still not a member of the MSEP, same as it has been for a long time (or maybe forever).

Primary Reciprocity Partners:
  • North Dakota: Statewide agreement for all public institutions.
  • Wisconsin: Statewide agreement for all public institutions.
  • Manitoba, Canada: Agreement for public institutions in both jurisdictions.
Past Agreement:
  • South Dakota: The statewide agreement ended after the 2023-2024 academic year, but the University of Minnesota is honoring it for current and some new students.

I was talking about Iowa State University in Ames, which was the discussion I was responding to
 


If they thought this was the caliber of hire they dont fire Franklin...certainly not mid season.

Look Campbell is a good coach its not a knock on him but he is replacing a guy who was coming off a run in the playoffs. The pressure is huge and if he isnt that level or better he wont last.

For the situation they put themselves in they backed into a good hire. But no one at Penn State, none of their fans, zero pundits or posters around here would have said it was a smart move to replace Franklin with Campbell going into the year nor when Franklin was fired.
It’s tough to evaluate a coach at a place like ISU to a coach at a place like PSU.

Maybe...and he could turn out to be better than who they fired but the odds are not great as we have seen over the past couple of decades. For Penn State's sake I hope that he is better.

But there is an almost zero percent chance if you told Penn State they would be getting Matt Campbell they fire Franklin especially during the season. You dont make that move to be one of the last teams to make a hire.
