Which was both shocking and disappointing if true. I'm a Cohen supporter but if this is true, we've got issues.

We will all just have to wait and see.

I would believe this but Cohen showing up at the UT press conference seems like it was a warning shot to Joe. Joe admitted that the coaching staff and team did a shit job getting ready for that game but it has also been the only time Cohen was there for the post game press conference. It wasn't a normal occurrence. As much as Cohen is on social media, you would have to be willfully blind to not see the unrest in the fanbase.

FSU- Urban Meyer (I would love to see the Meyer/Mullen bowl)
Rutgers- Greg Schiano
USC (not open yet)- James Franklin, PJ Fleck goes to Penn. State, Minnesota hires a G5 coach.

Wildcard- John Harbaugh goes back to the NFL. This might set more actions in motion.

Penn State is a better job than Southern Cal. Penn State has $50 million more annual athletic department revenue than USC and 50,000 more fans per football home game (105,000 vs 55,000).

Heck, Mississippi State has a higher football attendance than Southern Cal and nearly as much athletic department revenue ($116 million for USC vs $104 million for MSU).

And yet our recruiting budget is near the bottom of the SEC, our compliance department is stuck in 1998, and we only look at coordinators for football coach hires.
