That was my immediate thought. This will work out pretty well for UM if Freeze has to go. If they can stretch it out a year, preferably two, enough time will have passed for them to jump on Briles. Nobody with a semi legitimate program will want to touch him, so if he is hired before then, it will be somebody UM can poach him from.Quote:

Atmosphere may be ripe to let Freeze go too.
I posted a week or so ago that Baylor = Ole Miss, simply stating that both were in some deep trouble.
I was incorrect with that statement as it has now become obvious that most programs (including Baylor) when caught red-handed start handing out pink slips. Ole Miss on the other hand decides to do the opposite and simply ride it out hoping everything turns out in their favor.
I think the Network/Archie Manning has told the chancellor he's not firing anybody. They're in for the long haul.Quote:

Maybe I'm the only one, but I just don't see anyone touching Briles. He's radioactive. It'd be one thing to get fired for NCAA violations. But covering up rapes is something else entirely. No AD or university president in his right mind is going to risk his rep and the school's rep on a coach who has proven he's a win at all costs type. You can't control someone willing to lie to everyone and keep his superiors out of the loop.
Considering that the NCAA retracted pretty much all of the serious penalties against PSU, I'd say probably not.Quote:

I think during some of this they were in some hot water for not having a Title IX compliance director for 2-3 years.
Bobby Petrino wasn't fired for any NCAA stuff or for covering up rape and was lucky to get his old gig back at Louisville but I don't see other schools standing in line to interview him ... Briles only option going forward is the NFL or high school IMO
If they release signees, is there anyone that we are interested in and vice versa?
