since when did this merit the "national day of mourning" treatment it's getting on the CBS NFL coverage?

who cares?

NFL=not football, therefore competing for money=not football

same here on the NFL non-liking.

I just know some jack-*** Chiefs fans who talk about the Broncos the way some around here do the Horns and Pokes.

you have to think with as many vacancies as there will be, somebody's going to go after him

whether or not they're successful is yet to be determined........

Im not worried about Stoops going anywhere. He turned down florida twice and they offered to pay him more money then we did.

its not always about money....its about making it at the next level. Stoops has said that at some point he'd like to entertain the thought of going to the Pro's..

no idea if he's changed his mind on that, i would hope so, and i hope he stays till he's old and gray....but we'd be foolish to think there's no chance he'd ever leave

Very true, however, that would be taking a HUGE risk. Look what happend to Spurrier. Now I'm not saying it will happen but I say that there is a risk that it can happen to him as well and the question is, would he take it?

i think Stoops probably knew the risks involved when he answered the question saying that he would at some point be interested......i think all the coaches know the risk involved in their profession

the mass firing today would be evidence of that

he took a risk when he accepted the job at Oklahoma....wouldnt you say?

Chiefs are officially talking to the Jets about what kind of compensation they'd have to give in regards to Herman Edwards.

Is Herman Edwards such a great coach that he's worth giving up valuable draft picks for? That's the lifeblood of an NFL team and Edwards hasn't proven anything that I can tell. The Bucs gave up a lot for Gruden and it's working out for them but I'd be hard pressed to pull the trigger on a deal like that for almost any coach.
