Sean Lewis not exactly killing it at Colorado - but I've seen his name floated around at Syracuse. He was the QB coach at Syracuse in 2016.

They were scoring over 32 when he was calling plays, 21 since. I think prime was looking for a scapegoat.

Rick Stockstill out at MTSU.

Mike Elko (Duke HC) the new HC at Texas A&M...after Mark Stoops was the new guy for like 10 minutes.

Jeff Lebby (OU OC) is the new HC at Mississippi St.

Jonathan Smith (Oregon St HC) is the new HC at Michigan St.

Will be interesting to see if Cal or UCLA make moves this week.

Yeah Colorado is a different kind of mess and Lewis was nowhere near the problem.

Speak of the devil, Sean Lewis is the new Head Coach at San Diego State. Not a bad upgrade from Kent, Ohio.

-Kliff Kingsbury has emerged as the top candidate for Houston's open position.

-Oregon State has promoted DC Trent Bray to take over the HC job.

-Syracuse has hired Georgia assistant Fran Brown as their new HC.

Indiana has hired Curt Cignetti away from James Madison. Has never had a losing season in 13 total years as a head coach (D2 IUP, then Elon, and JMU)

Curt's brother Frank was just fired as Pitt's OC

He's obviously a good coach, but Indiana... that's a whole different beast... that whole team needs some new life blood. They need some swagger. Top down rebuild. Been a doormat for(Ever) so long, they've forgotten what its like to compete. Indiana really need a shot of life and I'm not sure a 63 year old head coach is gonna do it.

I would've gave Sherrone Moore a blank check and rode that us against the world vibe into a big recruiting class.

Looks like he's replacing Hoke at SDSU.

Possible replacements for Stockstill but some seem like a pipe dream.

Rumor that Kill and several other top assistants from NMSU are headed to Vandy to be on the staff of former N D def. coord. Clark Lea.

Wait until they see the home prices in Nashville compared to what they were used to in Las Cruces NM. #StickerShock

The west end of Nashville close to VU...

Incredible job by Kill at NMSU. Easily one of the toughest jobs in FBS football and he turned them into a contender.

+1

Could've retired a hero at NMSU, but that SEC money even from a coordinator position for a bottom dweller is too enticing.

I know Dabo is the hot name because he's a former Bama player and has won titles, but he has not adapted well to the new transfer portal culture and we've seen Clemson's recent small decline because of it. I don't think Bama boosters would be happy with that.
