I think you at least gotta have that individual moment. RG3eezit cooked Oklahoma, Manziel beat dynastic Alabama, Lamar sodomized a top 5 FSU. Daniels outlasted Brady Cook?

To what @Silkk said, I think you gotta have some narrative going for you. Clear cut best player even on a bad team, most exciting player, best player on best team, something. Daniels has none of that except stats imo

And we gotta try to buy both off :mjcry:
Timing matters too. Because Williams wasn't winning that Heisman last year if Stroud doesn't lose against Michigan.

Only other coach I could see getting fired is Holgersen but something tells me he’ll get one more year unless he just straight up bombs these last two games.



Gotta think the sharks circling the water to get Oregon State’s coach next season.

Conflicting reports then I guess cuz I saw reports of him "removing himself" or maybe they were just letting him save face. Even people who retroactively talked about it were saying he turned it down. In any case, if they offer it, he'd be a fool not to take it for a CPL years at least even as a stepping stone.
They were letting him save face b/c of his ties to the university. Avalos was their pick.

Why? Does it offset if he takes another job?

Not that I know of. 50% due within 30 days of him being fired and the remaining 50% due over installments the next CPL years I think. I'm more so just talking about the emotional toll his last merry go round took out of him. Him and his fam really went thru it you let them tell it. And don't seem to be in a rush to dive right back into that kind of environment event though it would be hella diff back at Boise obv.

Man I was in a subreddit the other week when Miami lost to Tech and I wish I saved this ether but a U fan went at a Tech fan for celebrating the dub with their usual “trophy case” talking point. Someone came back with (I’m paraphrasing) “y’all need to stfu with this trophy case shyt every time y’all get cornered. For 20 years, y'all have been talking with Bama ego and Vanderbilt trophy cases.” nikka!!! :banderas:
When it gets to the point where you got players on your team that weren't even ALIVE the last time you won a national title, then it's time to chill with that "when's the last time yall won something" talking point.

If he doesn't get the A&M job, Houston should go after Traylor or maybe even GJ Kinne. No way I'm staying at UTSA any longer if I'm Traylor. He might even get involved with the Arky job too.

Kinne is definitely on the coming up. Just feels like he needs maybe one more year there to be certain.


And while I like Traylor, Would the A&M fanbase really accept that hire? :patrice:Well I guess depending on how he finishes the season

Cap. This is the odds from Week 10.


And here is Bleacher Report on Williams taking the top spot after Stroud and OSU lost.


USA Today said the same thing.


Yeah, he balled against Notre Dame but that took place the same day as the OSU loss to Michigan. Like I said: timing matters.
