romad1 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Of those jobs in a wide-open NIL landscape. You'd want either USC, LSU or Miami because the donor base are the most angsty about competing and you have the best conditions for hiring players. USC and Miami are private unis so less constrained by the factors a public uni have. If you have the USC program rolling you are king of the biggest city west of Mexico City but still on this side of the international dateline.

buddha Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 if fickell and campbell get offers (and they will) they should jump at them. you only get so many chances to make $5m plus. ya gotta take it. especially campbell. he's at iowa state, ya gotta get the eff out of there before you have a couple injuries and go 3-8. fickell is in a recruiting hot bed and can live off ohio state's scraps (as many coaches have done before him at cincinnati). campbell is in iowa for god's sake. the issue for them is theyre midwest guys with midwest recruiting ties. all the job openings are on the coasts. now, one scenario i can see play out is tucker leaving msu for lsu and then campbell or maybe fickell taking the msu job. or franklin leaving penn state and fickell taking the penn state job. neither of those two seems right for usc, lsu, miami, or washington.

Hongbit Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 (edited) After years of neglect the USC job is now a total rebuild. The cupboard is absolutely empty for the next coach coming in. There’s very little high end talent on the roster. I can’t see how it won’t take at least 2 years to get back to 10 win territory. They are pretty tight lipped about this search but it seems they would like to name a coach in early December before the early signing window. The AD hired Fickell to Cincy and he has been viewed as the favorite. He also worked with Eric Bieniemy and his name has been mentioned as well. An outside candidate like a Campbell or Aranda have also been mentioned. Don’t count out something completely off the board that nobody saw coming. It’s USC so that’s always possible.

RandyMarsh Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Speaking of USC, they lost their top recruit, 5* DB Domani Jackson who is rumored to be high on Michigan. He says he is coming for the OSU game with his Dad so lets hope we can impress him(yes I know probably not happening). I guess he is close with fellow 5 star DB Will Johnson who is committed to Michigan. It would be a real get for us if we could get both of those guys.

I get why MSU is doing it (they feel like they have to), but I also don't think it's wise of them, as a school or as an athletic program. Even if Tucker stays, I think it is more likely they are looking to buy him out in year three of this massive deal than it is they are winning Big Ten championships. Wise decisions haven't exactly been that school's forte as of late though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Harbaugh loses 62-30 to Ohio State (which is my prediction for the final score) he should have his name added to the list, but sadly Michigan has lowered its standards to become the Texas of the midwest. We'll miss out on Fickell, which will be a real shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Harbaugh went 2-4 last year and Texas went 7-3. And at 7-3 Tom Herman still got fired.

Yeah, unless they crash against Maryland, the 10 wins certainly saves Harbaugh's job - assuming he still wants it. I find his whole presentation very strange recently. And yes I mean more than how strange he normally was in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hongbit Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) I’m not certain of the details of the extension that Harbaugh signed last year. I thought it was one where he took a pay cut to stay on and changed some future buyout money. Does anyone know if there are automatic escalators in it to reward him for having a strong bounce back this year? I suspect that Jim will want to get compensated and more importantly add future job security back after winning 10 games and going to a good bowl game. If UM isn’t prepared to commit then I wouldn’t be surprised if he walked to another job in either college or pro.

And he was duly fired and paid $20 million to go away. and then what happened? they hired steve sarkissian because he was so great after spending one year with alabama's massive talent factory and now texas is a laughingstock. be careful what you wish for, tater.

If UM isn’t prepared to commit then I wouldn’t be surprised if he walked to another job in either college or pro. from the interwebs: Harbaugh will draw a base salary of $605,000 over the next five years with additional compensation that nets him $3.3 million in 2021 and increased incrementally to $3.8 million in 2025. His total base compensation for the 2021 campaign is $4 million and tops out at $4.4 million in 2025. *** he has one time incentive bonuses for championships and bowl games but no automatic escalators in salary based on performance.

MichiganCardinal Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 A 10-2 Michigan likely goes to the Rose Bowl, where they would stand a good chance of winning against Utah.
