I can't believe Butch Jones and Brian Kelly weren't canned.

Kevin Sumlin. Has regressed every year, 3 different OCs, Chief failing. Also lobbying for other jobs while there. All while he's making the big bucks.

I also can't believe the NCSU coach survived.

The fact had our defensive coordinator hasn't been dropped like 3rd period algebra after leading literally the worst defense in a decade is mind boggling.

I am surprised Butch did not get the axe.

I guess next year is do or die?

Bert has always said it will take time to build his team his way, so I guess Arkansas is going to see how it plays out.

It would be hard to fire Gus when he met expectations for this year.

I am somewhat surprised Freeze is not mentioned more. He has done historic things by Ole Miss standards, but that NCAA thing surely will hurt him.

The lack of anyone in place permanently to make the decision to fire him then to hire his replacement is a big factor. He's also coaching a team that lost 41-18 to Vanderbilt 4 years ago. They put up 35 this year while giving up 40+! Improvement! Bricks laid!

Butch kept his job by beating FL, 8-4 with losses to UF/Bama in all 4 years of his tenure wouldn't have done it. He definitely deserves a ton of heat

Dude is an arse and perhaps ND needs to change, but I think he'd get a pass given ND was in a NY6 bowl a year ago.

Our OLine coach ... the second highest paid OLine coach in the league and he gives us a consistently under achieving OLine ... plus he was the interim HC who lost to the Citadel.

Shawn Elliott should have been fired.
