Oklahoma. Lincoln Riley leaves for USC. USC will unquestionably be back to being great with a top level coach and recruiting staff. The other side to this equation is Oklahoma - a perrenial power for countless years now, Oklahoma leaves the soft Big XII for the physical guantlet of the SEC, and undertook a notable risk hiring Brent Venables over a proven HC. I don't think that Oklahoma will be the same with Venables as it was with Riley.
Notre Dame. What Brian Kelly did at Notre Dame was remarkable. South Bend is a shit town. Cold weather. Zero hot girls. High academic standards. Religious overtones. To even get Notre Dame to the Playoffs with all those fixed obstacles was remarkable. Notre Dame was 92-39 under Brian Kelly with a National Championship appearance. Marcus Freeman is higly intelligent, respected, and driven- but unproven as a first time HC. I don't think that Notre Dame will be as successful with Freeman as it was with Kelly.
Texas. Steve Sarkisian will eventually be fired. It is not a question of if, but when. He is a 51-42 career HC, has never won more than 9 games in a season, and is 2-2 in bowl games. And is not known as a quality recruiter. The last Texas coach to win at least 75% of his games as HC of the Longhorns? Mack Brown, who has been gone for almost a decade now.
Florida State. Jimbo got cucked by a former Gator player, Jameis went to the NFL. FSU hasn't been the same since Jimbo left. Wilberto Taggerto and Mike Norvell are proving to be two tire fire hires, and it seems FSU is paying buyouts for anyone and their cousin who has ever stepped foot in Tallahassee. To top it all off, FSU just hired booster CEO to be its athletic director. No viable top QB, financial issues, and a desperate athletic director hire. FSU is DEAD for the foreseeable future.
Florida. Muschamp, McElwain, Mullen. Fired, fired, and fired. Gators have had as much failure in HC hires since 2011 as we have. Billy Napier did a remarkable job at Louisiana in 4 years, going 40-12, 2-1 in bowl games, and finishing top-20 twice. However, Napier has never landed a 4-star recruit, has already lost 3 4-star recruits, and coaching against Nick Saban, Brian Kelly, Kirby Smart, Jimbo Fisher, and Lane Kiffin in the SEC is completely different than anything the Sun Belt Belt Conference has to offer. I don't believe Napier will be a great coach at Florida, and Georgia has a lock on the SEC East for the foreseeable future.
Clemson. Cue the Will Smith gif where he comes home to an empty house with no furniture, and you have Dabo right now. Radakovich, gone. Bren Venables, gone. Tony Elliot, gone. Other assistant coaches and staff, gone. DeShaun Watson and Trevor Lawrence in the AFC South on the two worst teams in the NFL, and not walking through the Clemson door anytime soon. Clemson has a great football program, but its football RUN is officially DONE.
Then there is...
Miami. We pulled off a football miracle by doing what many, including me, thought was improbable, in hiring BOTH Mario AND Radakovich. The Marcus Lemonis/Jose Mas BOT faction, again, are football heroes for the Program. We will have the best coaching staff and the most football financial resources in arguably the WORST Power-5 Division. A recently upgraded Hard Rock Stadium, $8M head coach in Mario, another $8M in support staff (coordinators, positional, S&C, analyst, etc.), a top-10 college QB in TVD, and a favorable schedule, UNQUESTIONABLY make us an ACC Championship contender right now. WE have the upperhand in the state of Florida now, over Florida, Florida State, and UCF, for the forseeable future.
Yes, Bama still has Saban, LSU has Brian Kelly, and Georgia has Kirby Smart. Oregon has Phil Knight, and Texas will always be lurking with the potential to be a power again.
But Miami and USC - mirror programs of each other on the east coast and west coast. Miami and USC - the two private schools located in the glamarous regions of L.A. and South Florida, owners of multiple National Championships, factories for NFL talent, hated by other jealous programs for their both swag and style, are now BACK. As my man Colin Cowherd has consistently said, college football is simply BETTER when Miami and USC are at their best dominating over the SEC queef cucks and their motorcycle gang conference.
I think that we are at the start of a seismic shift in college football.
Happy days are here again, my fellow Hurricane fans.
