The Cost to Fill a Coaches Hot Seat

Thank you, Steven A. It's only $$$, eh?

ADs vs Agents = 2026 Notre Dame consuming a bowl of Rice in front of TDJ.

Worst hire of all time?

FSU poaching Schlock, er, Slick from OBD is right up there.

But it doesn't compare to the hire of Chapel Bill and his adult cheerleader buddy. Bill brought the circus to town, and his GM was in the process of forming an NFL team worse than the Jets before being relieved of his duties.

Bill's opening game: 2025 Chapel Hill - TCU 48 - UNC 14.

Rematch this Saturday in Dublin, Ireland. If you can't sleep in and don't have nits to pick, a lawn to cut, or a car to wash, 9 AM Pacific on ESPN. (Not too early for a Dublin-time shot and a beer, right? 🤪)

Billy Edwards, who started at Maryland and spent some time in Wisconsin, is now UNC's QB. No one will confuse this Billy for coach Billy's former QB, Tom Brady.

After taking care of business vs New Mexico State in Week 0, Chiefs Osceola and Mike Norvell open ACC play on Sunday, September 6th, vs. No. 19 SMU, featured in a 7:30 PM Eastern time slot on ESPN.

QB Ashton Daniels, who started at Stanford before being benched at Auburn, has arrived to save Mike's job; fortunately, things are all good with Chief Osceola. (Contrary to rumor, Chief O will not be throwing his spear at Mike.)

FSU was back for one week in 2025, after defeating Bama 31-17 in the opening game. CFB Playoff Committee members missed this game and sent a rumored 3-loss Crimson Tide (the 2nd loss counted for BYU, the third loss for the Tide?) to the playoffs.

Beating another overrated SEC team in Norman was OK; then the Tide set a Bama bowl record in Pasadena. 😁(What's that? Sorry, I can't help you. I remember the Alamo but not the Peach Bowl.🤬)

These panty-waste, penny-pinching ADs should look to LSU as the shining example. Only $54 million to dump a crusty, red-faced Irishman, who fit Baron Rouge like a keg of Guinness at an AA meeting, and a mere $90 million, or so, to hire a guy who won two conference championships at Florida Atlantic. ( I believe FAU was Slick's last tour of duty?)

And children are supposed to behave better than these adults? 😇

You can check out the first episode of 'Will Linc Be Missing in 2027?' when No. 14 USC hosts San Jose State this Saturday at Noon Pacific, on NBC.

You can watch this game after watching Chapel Bill's adult cheerleader when UNC plays TCU in Dublin, 9 AM Pacific, on ESPN. (See the above post for more detail.)

No.

Having lived in Raleigh for 4 years recently, I can tell you firsthand Bubba isn’t serious about football at all imo. He likes to spike 2-3 seasons of ticket sales with a circus and then move on. If it works out, great, but onto the next circus if not.

Thanks, Jabba.

Supposedly, AD Bubba Cunningham did not want to hire Belichick, but was overruled by UNC trustees.
