I was thinking USC.
If he gets his spider egg brain cyst under control I wouldn't be surprised to see him want to coach again; but there is talk he might be taking a position in the AD department.
Yeah, I'm mostly kidding. I do believe this time he thinks he won't coach again, whereas as soon as he left Florida I knew he'd be back the first time a blue-blood school called.

The FBS playoff system have made the national title more boring, except for Alabama and perhaps Clemson OSU fans. Who would have thought?

I think it's been Alabama and Clemson's dominance that has made it boring

yep, I should have worded it differently. It could be an outlier that the dynasties came up front in this system.

Though the way recruiting goes, I believe there is less mystery than the past with top-tier talent, and where it will likely land.

Crazy how BCS has been a bust for producing competitive football. ND was doing it with Luck of the Irish all year, but just Isn't a top 4 team.

8 teams playoff, somehow? possible if they get rid of creampuff weeks.

What are you saying here?

The BCS hasn't been around for a few years now.

An 8 team playoff isn't going to change what is happening right now in college football. The regular season was a total snoozer because we all knew the eventual outcome. Clemson v Bama IV. And it will most likely be Clemson v Bama V next year as Tua and Lawrence will both be back with plenty of weapons.

The truth is this. Over the past four years there have only been two programs that matter. There is a third, UGA, threatening to crash the party and perhaps next year they will break through.

Peter Burns summed it up nicely last night.

Florida State, Michigan, Ohio State, OU, Texas, Southern Cal need to up their game. I am hoping it will happen soon.

And I say this as a season ticket holder of the Clemson Tigers.
