If anyone wonders why Coaches should jump for better situations while they’re hot, I present to you Matt Campbell.

I will never understand why he didn’t leave. He could’ve had almost any open job.

Glad Bazelak is keeping those to keep the defense honest

Yup. Unless you’re Pat Fitzgerald or David Shaw and you’re never gonna leave and they’re never gonna fire you, you had better jump when the opportunity presents itself. If CTA had gone to FSU and failed, he might have had a shot at another decent gig. He gets fired here, good luck. Maybe he’ll be able to replace Kane Wommack when he moves up.

I though he was an alumni guy. So I thought it was some stupid loyalty/I can lift this program I used to play for. But nope. So its even weirder. Go to a bigger school with more money dedicated to your program. Also one not in the middle of Iowa

Oregon is actively trying to lose a football game. Train wrecks like this are entertaining

Just took a peek at an OSU board to see how they're handling this. Already multiple "Fire Day" threads. 

His decision making in the second half was mind bogglingly stupid. Must be nice to be a program that is CFP or bust

[Alford Bailey]

Not sure what Day was doing in that second half. OSU fans almost have a legitimate complaint.

GO BEAVERS! Clipped the ducks wings in a crazy comeback win in the Civil War! Only 6 completed passes the entire game for the Beavers, what an impressive run game and o-line effort!

[Brass Cannon]

When was the last time a coach recovered like we have seen with Michigan football. He was given the dreaded “this is a contract so we can fire you” deal. Tried to bolt multiple times and yet now is flying as high as can be 

[KingPG21]

The difference between the Big Ten East vs West is hilarious. The B1G East is gonna have 3 teams in the top 10 after this weekend. The West is gonna be represented by a program that will have played one team in the final top 25, and lost to them. Lol

One guy that did strike while the iron was hot? Willie Taggart. That man got PAID by some big time football schools and sucked extravagantly going forward. 

Just got fired by FAU today, but his kids and his kids’ kids and maybe beyond won’t ever have to worry about money.

Man if A&M wins

Yeah honestly not sure if I knew he was there til I saw that they fired him lol.

USC is gonna give the B1G another perennial playoff contender I think

45-5 overall and 31-2 in conference and they want to fire their coach. If this is the case then sports fans are way out of control.

The 2 conference losses are to Michigan and that’s all that matters

2 other losses are in the CFP against Clemson and Alabama. If they want to fire him go for it and let IU have him.
