Depends if you want to include the Leach coaching tree.

 

Art Briles, Baylor

Dana Holgorson, WVU

Kliff Kingsbury, TTU

Sonny Dykes, Cal

Ruffin McNeil, ECU

 

Others like Lincoln Riley, Sonny Combie, Seth Littrell, etc are OC's at BCS schools (OU, TCU, UNC) and will get head coaching opportunities soon.

 

There's also Gundy, I forgot about him. Honestly, I'm not even sure what happened with Josh Heupel, he was an assistant at one point. Haven't followed the program as close this past decade since I started living abroad.

Finebaum is crap when it comes to coaching news. He just dreams up scenarios in his head and reports them. Can't see Kelly leaving the nfl unless he has to.

 

 

Feldman is the guy I'd follow for news. He's top notch. He has so many contacts.

I said Jimbo. I don't know who he meant. A lot of people think Fisher would leave FSU for the right gig, particularly if Saban leaves Alabama.

 

I could see Jimbo going to Alabama but not really anywhere else. He's got a good set-up down at FSU right now. Not many jobs would be more enticing than what he has now. He's also spent almost his entire career in the southeast, so I don't think USC would be that alluring.

The Ole Ball Coach is retiring per twitter. No idea effective when.

 

That program certainly declined last 2 years, but man, college football is not going to be as fun without Spurrier. His press conferences were hilarious performance art. Sorry to see what happens to the hatin ass spurrier columns.

ESPN showed the one when there was a fire at a library at Auburn, in which 20 books were destroyed. He said the tragedy was 15 of them hadn't been colored in yet.

Loved the one about how you can't spell Citrus without UT

Any tips on restaurants/bars in Ann Arbor?

Ashley's has pretty good food and a great beer selection. I don't know too many other bars since I lived there in high school.

 

As for restaurants, what're you looking for?

 

My favorites from what I remember:

Dibellas - sub shop, get the godfather on everything and be happy

BTB (Big Ten Burrito) - great local burrito joint

Knight's - fantastic steak house

Metzgers - German food, very good

Gandy Dancer - more upscale, in an old train station, excellent food and service here

Jerusalem Garden - some of the best mediterranean I've had

Real Seafood company - popular downtown place

The Earle - another fancier place, but also very good

Be Won - great Korean food

 

Zingerman's anything is good, but WAY overpriced. Don't go to the Road House, place is a complete rip off.

 

Plenty of other great places but those are the ones that I'm remembering best.

I think I may do Ashley's. Thanks!

Zingermans and Maize and Blue deli are great lunch spots. I hit them up regularly.

 

Otherwise a pretty awesome list, you know what you are doing there.

I'm not comfortable with Michigan being the favorite tomorrow.

 

For real, I'm not really happy with the line. As a U of M fan, I don't see how we can be favored by 7.5. Playing against a team that has been ranked higher than us all season, hasn't lost a game, and has dominated us in recent years.

How can Iowa be playing this well with their third string TB? And dominating on the defensive line? And without their best WR as well?

 

In Evanston?

 

The whole world is turned upside down these days. It's crazy the main opponent that remains between Iowa and an undefeated season is Minnesota then MI/OSU.

 

Would have been absolutely elated with 8-4 after the last four mediocre seasons.

I've seen this movie about Northwestern before.

 

Yep. They just aren't very good. If they played Stanford again Stanford would name the score. That is exactly why I would never schedule a real opponent week 1 of a season (see also OSU-Va Tech last year).

Especially traveling across time zones. Huge mistake.
