Dan had massive recruiting problems.

I can sorta relate to him in that there's very little i'd hate worse than begging a kid to come play for me. Nevertheless, he gets paid a crap ton to do it, and he should work harder at it. Considering how much he likes recruiting, he should take his millions and play golf or whatever

Luke Fickell on ND job per da Twitter:

"I'm worried about winning the AAC Championship. Is the job open? I guess it is. I wouldn't have known if somebody didn't tell me." (Paraphrased)

Yeah, okay Fickell.

Someone is his agent...

Lebby has his bags packed for Norman yet there has been not a single speculation tweet about who could possibly replace him at ole miss should he leave. That's b/c the current head coach won't be there to hire the new offensive coordinator. He'll be in Miami.

Lots of speculation, but I doubt Kiffin leaves Ole Miss this year. More speculation is that Kiffin has Gabriel, the QB at UCF, to come in as his QB at Ole Miss next year. I understand Gabriel was previously recruited by Lebby. I guess we'll soon find out.

If Kiffin gets the Miami job- he is gone. That's not speculation. I would be surprised if Cristobal left Oregon but I did see where his Mother's health could play a part in his decision. She lives in Fla I believe.

Kiffin has had a contract extension ready to go- he just hasnt signed it yet. He's letting things play out.

Been told by my miami source it's unofficially official that Diaz is gone. Cristobal is 1 and Kiffin is 2 and no one is spilling which accepted it. No other names mentioned. Curious if Miami so the ACC team that has the million dollar offer to Harrell at OC. Riley has already told Harrell to look elsewhere.

Like 34 said he's got an extension that's been sitting on his desk for two weeks now. Lebby may take Gabriel to Oklahoma with him. Lebby ain't staying Oxford. He's gone asap.

And like I've said before if Manny was truly safe the chancellor would have told him by now. He's totally in the dark. They have a nice recruiting class to hold together.

Well, if Cristobal accepts it, then Kiffin to Oregon makes all the sense in the world.

They'd just promote Moorhead.***

You joke but (and this is purely speculation on my part) the slowness on confirming Moorhead to Akron coupled with the lack of announcer raise for Cristobal makes me wonder there's thought Cristobal might leave and if so that Oregon would promote Joe. I don't see Oregon hiring Kiffin. It makes sense for him because he is striking while the iron is hot. But I don't see them believing he'd stay there longterm.

But Kiffin left a Florida gig. Granted Old Miss is better but couldn't he have just waited if that's his "dream job"?

I think he knew he could take the Ole Miss job and pad his resume, especially with Corral.

Not to mention he's making considerably more money at OM than he was at FIU, so he made a few million waiting on Miami.

FAU ain't nowhere near as good as Miami. Miami needs someone to fire them up and get the mojo going again. Kiffin fits it to a tee. It's not about a "dream job". It's about taking the "right job" when the opportunity presents itself.

Dennis Dodd per da Twitter:

Luke Fickell is number one on ND's list. They are willing to wait. Fickell is a devout Catholic.

He made an extra 6-7 million and elevated his profile. Easy decision
