Coach Rab Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 16 hours ago, Sportsfanatic1 said: 3 college football coaches who should be on the hot seat after week 11 3. Manny Diaz – Miami Hurricanes Prior to Saturday, the Miami Hurricanes had a nice little winning streak against the Florida State Seminoles. Unfortunately for Manny Diaz, that streak is over. The Hurricanes were humbled Saturday as they ended up losing 31-28. This is a game that Florida State was able to take control of early on, but Miami had a solid lead late in the game. In the fourth quarter, the Hurricanes jumped ahead 28-20 thanks to two consecutive scores. But, due to a late surge, Florida State was able to score 11 unanswered points in the final five minutes of the game. Miami is now 5-5 on the year after losing to a really bad Florida State team. How much longer will Diaz still be the head coach of the Hurricanes? Will they continue to trust his ability to lead them forward? 2. James Franklin – Penn State Nittany Lions The Penn State Nittany Lions had a miserable time against the Michigan Wolverines Saturday. In a game that was more than winnable, Penn State fell short. Because of the high expectations this program came into the year with, James Franklin should be feeling some pressure for how his team has underachieved. He should definitely be criticized for his record against quality opponents. Penn State, in Franklin's eighth season, should be contending with and beating these sorts of teams. The Nittany Lions should be making it to the Big Ten Championship Game regularly. Franklin hasn't done that. He's underachieving. He made a name for himself by overachieving at Vanderbilt, but it seems like he's plateaued at Penn State. 1. Dan Mullen – Florida Gators It doesn't matter that the Florida Gators won. It doesn't matter that Florida's offense was able to put up 70 points. It matters that Florida had to score at will. It matters that the Gators struggled so much against Samford. It matters that Florida allowed Samford to score 52 points. Dan Mullen should be sickened with how his team barely survived its meeting with an FCS foe. Florida is one win away from bowl eligibility and the two remaining games are certainly winnable, but the Gators have such high expectations and merely making it to a meager bowl game just isn't good enough. Not for a program of this caliber. Mullen has to do better. He proved to be a capable coach at a previous stop, but he's not doing that in Gainesville. For more NCAA football news, analysis, opinion and unique coverage by FanSided, including Heisman Trophy and College Football Playoff rankings, be sure to bookmark these pages. Who should hire them if they are fired: 1. James Franklin- Washington. The definition of a perfect fit. 2. Manny Diaz- UMASS. Give the guy another chance... to actually build something from nothing. 3. Dan Mullen- Tough call. He is a guy that belongs in the south. Right now, I would say an AAC school whose coach leaves for a better job. Something like a Houston, Cincy, Tulane, LA Tech etc etc etc... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 Funny thing about Fuente. When Sumlin was on the way out I would have been totally okay with Fuente replacing him. That was pre backing up the Brinks truck for Jimbo and Fuente’s struggles at VaTech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustAFan11 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Has Lincoln to LSU been a thing and I just missed it? The Twitter handle has 80k followers so I assume they’re legit.

Riley is far from a homerun hire. LSU is lacking offense, and that is all LSU needs to be really good THIS YEAR. That is Lincoln's legend... he is a great offensive guy with stud QBs.... Those people haven't watched much football this year... If Lincoln is willing to leave OU for LSU, he is a fraud... Leaving for anything other than the NFL, he would lose all of my respect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valhalla Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 The last 3 LSU head coaches have won a NC and we think two of them were bad. It might be the best job in the country honestly. If everything was in a vacuum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 One thing for sure, the recruiting piece of his job would become 100 percent easier. Defensive talent would also never be an issue. He could literally hire Mike Stoops as his coordinator and still have a better defense than 3/4 of the teams in FCS. Next, he'd be free of OU's puritanical compliance department. More bagmen and under the table dealings. Oh sure, there'd be the occasional dust-up with the NCAA for more egregious violations, but he'd skate through it.
