Whittingham offered and rejects Tennessee job
It has been widely reported that Tennessee offered its head coaching position to Kyle Whittingham and he has rejected their offer. Instead, the Vols have hired Louisiana Tech head coach Derek Dooley. The Salt Lake Tribune also reported Friday afternoon that Whittingham was offered 3 to 4 million...
Whittingham Vols' top choice?
UPDATE: I have lowered us to Defcon 4 as there is now some serious speculation that the Vols will hire Dave Cutcliffe. Keep fingers crossed, people! Rumors are circulating that Tennessee has contacted Kyle Whittingham about their coaching vacancy. Unfortunately, that's all we've heard. However, it...
SEC Power Poll: The Coaches
I'll be voting in the SEC Power Poll this season (the committee is listed in the links box). The first exercise is ranking the league's coaches. Leave your comments, concerns or criticisms below. Also, I obviously put more weight into a coach's most recent record than his history. SEC East 1....
Bronco's World
To help get through the summer, I will be sitting down with various Mountain West football coaches. We'll discuss football, the upcoming season and anything they feel like chatting about. In May, I sat down with Wyoming coach Joe Glenn and today I had the pleasure (sure, we'll call it that) of...
THE THREAD [06.23.08] :: Opportunities

THE THREAD [06.20.08] :: Expectations
Person getting it done. From time to time, I've been a bit harsh on The State. I take it all back ... well, most of it, anyway. Person has been going gangbusters for the launch of the new Go Gamecocks magazine, and turns in another great effort with an excellent Spurrier interview. Now, if only...
THE THREAD [06.19.08] :: Not Good Enough?
Ole Miss to South Carolina: Smack! SMQ takes a look at Mississippi's quest to find another coach that can do what David Cutcliffe did, something the Rebels haven't had since ... well, since they fired David Cutcliffe for doing what David Cutcliffe did. After laying out the issues facing Ole Miss...
THE THREAD [06.18.08] :: Tangents
The dead period. As C&F has noted before, things are closing down in terms of Gamecocks news, with season previews coming up fast. Like last year, there will be some posts focused on the keys to the 2008 Gamecocks, previews of each opponent (even Wofford), a preview of the best games each...
On the outside looking in
C&F should issue his normal disclaimer here: Until around July 15, anything he says about his Top 25 should be taken with a grain of salt. In fact, it's really ridiculous to have a Top 25 list at this point, but if you're a college football addict, well... Well, admit it, you have one,...
THE THREAD [06.16.08] :: Moving On Up
The ballad of Eric Hyman. Person does a great interview with Eric Hyman about the basketball coaches, facilities and Hyman's immune system. Okay, so the last part we could have done without. Some of the highlights: On Dawn Staley: I’ve had women, men, people in the African-American...
