Texas Tech has an opening

[bottomfeeder]

Do unemployment rules apply to state employees too? He'll probably stay on the dole and write another book title "All Out".

[djsimp]

Southern Miss and A State has an opening right?

Wisconsin
Texas Tech (Skreets: Jim Leavitt)
Louisiana Tech
Arkansas State
Colorado
FIU
Kent State
Temple
Southern Miss
Western Michigan
Western Kentucky

I think that's it.

I don't see any of them wanting to get worst.

Not to dog the man, but I can see Chiz catching on to another school for far less money, maybe even a buttoned up type where he can be at least semi-successful, ACC or such. It's quite possible he learned from this experience and could do what he loves in a conference that isn't so competitive.

Southern Miss went 0-12 so unless he burnt the place to the ground he couldn't do worse.

...or maybe not so buttoned up and or smoldering.

Hahaha, Chiz could fuck up a wet dream.

Yeah for at least two seasons depending on how the new crew adapts to their personnel.

With all of the coaching moves so far, he will end up as a coordinator somewhere.  I highly doubt he will get another HC gig.

Maybe not, but Western Kentucky is not too bad considering where Fran and Price eventually landed.

[DnATL]

Why work now, and essentially work for free?  Actually, work for a net loss, when you consider the cost of relocation?  Since his payout from Auburn is reduced by whatever his new salary is, there is no near-term financial incentive for him to move on.

(At least, that is my understanding of the terms in the Chiz contract - did Tubs have something similar, or was he paid-in-full prior to taking the TT job?)

I don't disagree.  After what Chizik fielded this season, no team is going to be dumb enough to hire him as a HC though.  WKU certainly wouldn't hire him.

Chiz could very well end up at the table in Miami with Tubs or Urban. Don't sell the guy short.

Hell I wouldn't work either but the dude doesn't seem the type to hang loose, even if you think no program desires his services. Fact is he is a football coach that struck gold and went cold. And I think he's smart enough to realize his errors. I could be wrong but I doubt it in this instance.

He's not going to be a HC.  I'm sure he could end up as a coordinator somewhere.

And I can agree with you as a Bam on maybe 80 % of what you spout but don't try and pass off that Chiz is a permanent blithering idiot just because a few seem to agree with you here or you think he's too hardheaded to realize his errors. The man isn't a bad coach he just went beyond his realm. But that doesn't mean he can't lead a lower program or eventually ascend to a higher one.

Most programs aren't going to take a chance on him as a HC because of the product that they saw on the field this season.  As a coordinator, that's a different story.  I think that he has a good chance as a decent DC somewhere.  As you have said, he simply went beyond his realm.

He has already proven that he can't lead a lower program (ISU), and for the most part, couldn't hack it at a higher level either.  If you don't believe that 2012 was a result of him being hardheaded, then I can't help you.  It's not me being a goat fucking bammer.  Just look at the whole timeline and the results.  He is destined to be a DC for the forseeable future.

Iowa State does not agree with you.
