Cliffs:

• discussions about an exit strategy happened this morning, including firing Belichick with cause and eliminating his buyout

• culture is terrible overall, but one big issue is recruiting violations

• 247 mod for UNC says it's not a lock that Belichick will coach their next game against Cal on 10/17

Eh, if it were me I'd much rather be an NFL coach where I can just focus on coaching men that are there to do their jobs.

Bill is old, lethargic and grumpy which doesn't exactly translate in the high school parents living room. Lol I'm not getting this hire but in this day, who the hell knows.

Lol called it but this dumpster fire blew up way faster than anyone could have ever predicted

Before this sequence, Georgia had run 12 plays the entire half and Auburn had dominated with a chance to go up 17-0.

This was ruled a fumble, and the final two minutes of the half took over 30 minutes with reviews and penalties.

Or maybe not....

"....The athletic departments of the Big Ten’s 16 public universities generated nearly $2.84 billion in revenue during the 2024 fiscal year but collectively spent nearly $3 billion, according to financial data sent to the NCAA and obtained recently by through state open-records laws...

...Of the 13 public universities collecting Big Ten funding during fiscal 2024, 11 secured around $50.8 million as part of the league’s media contract plus $11 million or so for other disbursals, including bowl revenue. Maryland and Rutgers received lower amounts as part of their payback process after borrowing during their six years of non-vested membership..."

These coaching buyout numbers will never not blow me away. It's almost better for a guy like Franklin to get fired and not have to do any work for a few years. Or the rest of his life if he wants. He could just have fun coaching peewee.

I think A&M firing and buying out Jimbo was where all of this crossed the Rubicon, and now it feels like we've normalized it with teams needing to fire coaches sooner for many reasons such as portal recruiting.

I'm way more interested in the actual moves that are made as opposed to the contract stuff.

For example, Penn State has had only four coaches (non-interim) since 1950, and I'm anxious to find out if the Florida/FSU jobs have ever been open at the same time.

20+ jobs opening up and the domino effect of that will be wild, but holy hell if we see up to 40 changes which is 30% of the FBS.

Yeah that's cool historical context stuff but I'm wondering where the breaking point is for some of these schools..... even the ones in the P4 conferences. They're writing checks their asses are struggling to cash.

The video shows a Kansas staffer drop an object on the sideline at Jones AT&T Stadium. Moments later in the video, a Kansas football player picks up the object from the same spot on the sideline. The football player is seen handing the object to another Kansas staffer..."
