I'm sure a lot of teams would love to hire Orgeron as an assistant, wouldn't be surprised to see him end up back at USC.

Baylor coach guy morriss (sp?) is gone. if Utenn loses today Fulmer has to be on the hotseat as well.

Chan Gailey of Georgia Tech was reportedly fired. I'm kinda surprised by this because He was 44-32 with 6 bowl games in a row. They are expecting to do better?

GT lost 6 in a row to UGA, and that's probably a bigger deal instate than making six bowl games, especially in an era where 6-5 or 6-6 gets you into a bowl. Just getting to a bowl game is no big deal anymore, really.

Here in Colorado, the story is Sonny Lubick is out at CSU, but unconfirmed.

You mean you would be satisfied with losing 5 games and finishing out of the top 25 in a season when you have the best RB in the conference, the best WR in the country, and a top 20 defense?

The offense is terrible.

1998: 426 points
1999: 461 points
2000: 386 points
2001: 405 points
*end of good times*
2002: 280 points
2003: 274 points
*God arrives to play wideout*
2004: 264 points
2005: 222 points
2006: 349 points in two more games than O'Leary's seasons.
2007: 318 points

Gailey always lost at least 5 games. Before him were seasons of 10-2, 8-4, 9-3.

Never beat georgia.

Awful play calling and game management. The things SE kills coaches for "WTF moran your down nine kick a FG dont go for it on 4th and 5 from the 20". That stuff.

All completely irrelevant games in boise or other random places against the likes of tulsa, fresno, and utah. Which they lost.
