I don't like the expanded playoff, except maybe to 6 teams max. There is no reason the #9 or #12 team in the country deserve a shot at the title. Cheapens the regular season. 2nd tier of teams should shut up and go to the Outback Bowl. But if the result is less of the insuferable SEC winning titles, I'll take it. 

If it were up to me I'd make it a 68 team playoff! LOL

CFB offseason takes no time turning up to 11.

Coach Cig is a former Saban assistant.

'Bama will probably go after him. 

We'd better up his buyout -- say, to $20M-plus ...

Wow! New era of CFB about to start between this and 12 teams in CFP next year. Do they go after Kirby?

Saban is gonna get another couple dozen coaches 5 extra years on their deals and 100% more salary

Kirby played at UGA. No shot he leaves imo and I don’t see a reason to.

Lanning, Freeman (doubt), Dabo (LOL), Norvell all seem like varying degrees of obvious candidates. There are others, but I’m sending an entire bank vault to Eugene.

Whoever it is will be simultaneously stepping into one of the best and most impossible jobs in the sport. Following Saban? At Bama? No thanks dude.

I don't think the Bama fans would accept Tommy Rees as the Scheyer to Saban's Coach K. 

Gonna be some seismic moves in the coaching carousel!

Brad Stevens?

Dabo went to Bama and has a cheap out if he's offered the Bama job. It's not a total impossibility but he's sure lost his luster the past couple years.

[JerryYeagley23]

Pete Carroll. Makes too much sense.

‘Loosa will burn to the ground if they hire Dabo. 

 

Hope they do it.

Kirby to the Falcons is a rumor floating around as well.  

If true, that just means there's a major shift in the SEC. Also, the timing on all of it (12 team playoff, NIL, conference expansion,  etc.) makes it look like these coaches are bailing out. 

 

Looking forward to IUFB this season folks.  

[Home Jersey]

IUFB pre season dark horse for the 12 seed?? After we poach some of Bama's roster maybe... 

Make it happen Cig. Lol

It’s crazy that with Saban retiring IU, of all places, has the best coach in college football.

Don’t believe me? Just Google it.

[Alford Bailey]

Potentially a huge shift in CFB

[go iu bb]

CCC is going to poach some of the 4*/5* decommits from Alabama?

lol

Dabo

Ryan Day

Dan Lanning

Lane Kiffin

Mark Stoops

Kalen DeBoer

James Franklin

I'm sure those guys are on the short list right? Will be interesting to see who they hire.

Clearly, Tom Allen should be THE guy.

Sark is my dark horse. How fun of an SEC intro would that be for Texas?
