He's an idiot

During the national championship game the broadcast crew will be doing multiple close-ups of Mike Bobo and talking about how he accepted the MSU job but is staying to coach in the natty.
I know, you're right. If he said 2 P5's he was probably counting Malzhan as one of them. Malzhan is not it. Klieman has never been interested or close to interested. Leipold's interest has been minor at best. He is going to wait out what happens after this weekend anyway.
Its Odom, right?
Slight thread hijack but I'm shocked that a lot of A&M message board posters want the young Georgia Co-DC. He would be iffy for me here. Huge gamble
Or you know Liberty could just offer him 7. I think some of you do not realize how much money Liberty really has. Their athletic dept budget trumps ours. Their dept is on the level of mid tier to upper tier P5.
This is the same argument people have with Lashlee and acting like SMU does not have 25-30 boosters that could not triple our athletic dept budget in one check. Just because these schools are G5 does not mean they are Sisters of the Poor or Southern Miss.
I have been thinking it’s Odom for 2 days. I have no information other than just a hunch. I do like his offensive coordinator and think he would be solid here. What he’s done at UNLV is impressive and he had a lot of shit to deal with at Missouri that was not really his fault. Terrible administration. Really young head coach that was probably hired before he was ready also.
His decision won’t come down to money. He will have to decide if he wants to stay in little league ball for another year and take a chance on his stock dropping next year or if he wants to coach in the SEC now with a lower profile SEC team than he wants to go to.
If it?s Odom it better not be because we didnt want to pay for someone better. Id be good with it if he was option D and we were down to that
If the new 5+7 model replaces the current 6+6 model, a G5 team will no longer have an automatic spot in the playoff.
The idea that Liberty has a better shot of getting 1 bid shared by 60-70 teams than we do of getting one the 3-4 (sometimes 5) bids the SEC will get every year is pretty ridiculous. As we're seeing right now, even 13-0 isn't necessarily good enough for Liberty, while we'd very likely be in at 10-2, maybe 9-3 in some years.
Regardless of where Chadwell coaches next year, I'm confident that if the 12-team playoff format exists for the next 50 years (it won't - I bet it's 16 or more by 2030), that every SEC school will end up with more CFP bids by 2073 than Liberty, even Vanderbilt.
Most years, the playoff will consist of:
Big 12 champ
ACC champ
SEC champ
Big 10 champ
Some G5 team that probably sucks, but occasionally doesn't
3-4 SEC at larges
2-3 Big 10 at larges
1 at large from Big 12 or ACC, or maybe another SEC/Big 10
There will be random odd years that break this trend because of the conference championship games (which should be abolished and probably will be), but this will be the norm.
