    Wow the hits keep coming.

    Said Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops, a former assistant under Spurrier at Florida: "He's probably the most competitive guy I've ever known, but he's also one of the most genuine guys I've ever known. He's special."
    Happy retirement, HBC

    Sounds like Sarkasian vacated the job a while back...he wasn't ready to admit it... (hope he recovers quickly and healthily).
    Everything progressives do is aimed at weakening democracy, capitalism and the social and cultural institutions that support those things...... They are about subjugating people and being a ruling class.

    If the Sooners would have showed up on Saturday (Oct 10th) there might be one more on this list.

    The hits keep coming -- I just added UCF and Miami.

    Also of non-head coaching note, Mark Mangino is out as ISU OC.

    A hearty, respectful adieu to Jerry Kill, Minnesota's head coach, forced to retire due to seizures/health reasons:

    I'll update the list

    Jerry Kill has coached in my hometown (Webb city,mo) in 88 and 89 and the school won its first state title in 89 and has won 12 more since. He went to Southern Illinois and made them a FCS contender and had Minnesota winning 7-8 games a year. Very classy guy and I don't know that there is a better motivator. Only reason I think he wasn't at a major BCS program was concerns over his health.

    Frank Beamer's retiring, probably because pollsters are no longer auto-putting VT in the top 10 every preseason

    Happy retirement! We're up to 10 college football openings...

    Took a season too long. He was out of touch and should have been put out to pasture.
    Rich Miano and Nick Rolovich are two names mentioned as well as June Jones. IMO I don't think Jones is interested.

    And then there was Charlie Strong's Freudian slip during his post game presser following a 24-0 loss to Iowa State:

    I hope LR is with us for at least five years. That's like forever in coaching years though.

    I think OU's track record with OCs moving on to become HCs (Chuck Long, Mike Leach, Mark Mangino, Kevin Wilson) is so hit-or-miss that LR is stuck here awhile, unless he laterals or gets fired. It's not just an OC thing --- Brent Venables was stuck here until he finally lateraled to Clemson... and he finally might get a HC shot because of that move.
