More on the Schiano-Tennessee debacle.

Most interesting part is that he might be able to sue them.

This explains a lot.

Barrett was hurt before he entered the game against Michigan.

What it doesn't explain is why Kevin Wilson kept having him run it...

Speight transferring from Michigan.

Cutcliffe turns down Tennessee.

Someone will take this job, but I can't imagine it'll be a "name" at this point.

Witten doesn't want it either.

The new rankings are interesting. (Never forget that 5 of the 6 committee members are southerners...)

Clemson should not be at the top. Oklahoma should be #1. Auburn shouldn't be #2. I'd give #2 to Wisconsin then Clemson, then Auburn.

I was hearing scenarios for how this will play out, but it boils down to this:
ACC winner, Clemson-Miami, is in and the loser is out.
SEC winner, Auburn-Georgia, is in and the loser is out. (Although, if we're being fair, this is based strictly on SEC bias. Auburn's only wins are against SEC teams, and Georgia only has a win against clearly overrated ND.)
Oklahoma is in if they beat TCU again.
Wisconsin is in if they beat OSU.

That's the most tidy and easy scenario.

However, if OU loses and Wisconsin wins, Bama sneaks back in.
If OSU beats Wisconsin, they get in over Bama's weak resume. (Wins over ranked PSU, MSU, Michigan, and Wisconsin. Two of them in the top 10. Versus Alabama's wins over...3 loss LSU and 4 loss Miss State.)

He apparently said no already, and they have moved on to NCSU's coach

I think all of our BBall programs are way down. I know OSU's is terrible right now. Remember, for some reason they forced Matta out like 4 months ago and the new guy has been scrambling to put a team together. I saw we were winning that whole game and then lost at the end. Same thing we did with Butler earlier in the week. Up by 14 with 4:50 to play and lost...

The only BBall program is MSU, I think? Indiana is down as they also have a new coach. Michigan isn't very good right now. PSU and Nebraska have never been good. No idea on any of the others. What two teams won?

Fan gets tossed at FSU presser with Jimbo Fisher for asking him about loyalty.

Look at the stooge pushing him out. You can't fucking do that. You have the right to ask someone to leave, but nothing he did warranted that physicality.

Doeren making a decision today.

Vols fans are ready to riot over this guy too.

Meanwhile, Kiffin is destroying them on Twitter.

Morons.

I googled Doeren, yesterday, and both NCSU fans and UT fans were done with him. Wtf? At least Tennessee has been good for other coaches salaries. Each coach the past three days has gotten a better offer from their own school, iirc

Now they want Kevin Sumlin, who will probably accept as he doesn't have a job.

Not a win, per se. Not a loss, I guess.
