I think that accurate historically.

But, with the turmoil in HC turnover the last decade and a half at AU, and the complete instability in current LSU structure through to a meddling Governor, I am not sure top available HCs are prioritizing them without large $$$$ guarantees.

I don’t know how Oklahoma State would be rated as a better job than Arkansas.

Agree and I don't think Virginia Tech is a better job either

Arkansas is absolutely a better job than Oklahoma State and probably Virginia Tech. OSU is in an abysmal situation

UCLA is as good of a job as they want to be, and they apparently still don't want to be one

I guess it depends on what your goals are. You aren’t going to win championships at Arkansas but expectations are at an all time low. Resources are there to be successful vs expectations. Not sure that’s the case at 1-3.

Would take Florida over LSU. Florida is somewhat dysfunctional.

LSU is a shite show with the Governor getting involved.

Think LSU is going to be very unhappy to find out the buyout and salary they will have to agree to in order to poach the caliber of coach they say they will hire. This last week has made them look like the 3 stooges and really hurt the appeal of the job.

Well ....

We gotta figure Arkansas keeps Petrino, correct?

Mizzou and Ole Miss will be looking for new HCs .... and hopefully SC as well.

So possibly 7 HC changes in the SEC .... half the league.

Outside of the league ... Clemson is not going to fire Dabo unless he loses to Beamer. But if Beamer beats the sheep humping sister banging taterheads then SC will not fire Beamer.

It's a conundrum.

It can be a good job but they haven't taken themselves seriously for 30 plus years.

It's a shame that it is ran by whiners and retards.

Petrino has no chance of getting the job.

Whoever gets the OKST job is going to have a lot of resources available. Gundy (was making $7 million) refused to adapt to the modern landscape and shut out a lot of people.

Every opening puts Bobby P one step closer to that job.

They might as well announce it now.

With the dumpster fire at LSU in the administration, and Auburn's inherently nutso expectations going through too many coaches in just a few years - I would put them 7th and 8th respectfully.
