A few more names have surfaced that I feel comfortable in posting.

I posted about Nunez and Selmon late last night. There are at least three more sitting ADs in play.

Eddie Nunez - AD, New Mexico
Doug Gillin - AD, Appalachian State
Mark Alnutt - AD, Buffalo
Beth Goetz - AD, Ball State
Zac Selmon - Sr. Associate AD, Oklahoma

There is at least one more "secret candidate," possibly two. The "wow" hire I referred to.

Who are your Top 3 replacements?

Does this hurt Miami recruiting and help us?

Congratulations Scott Carr

maybe he hires Jeff Lebby as HC

Is it because he’s tired of rejection?

Just a loser?

Has his small package removed in an unfortunate “handyman” accident?

Ugly women in NGEbraska?

This is shaping up to be a crazy coaching carousel and there will be many ripple effects. Texas Tech got an early head start by recently naming Baylor assistant Joey McGuire as its new head coach to replace Matt Wells.

Anyway, McGuire's roots in coaching are in Texas high school football as the longtime head coach at Cedar Hill HS in Dallas County. Matt Rhule hired him out of the HS ranks to join him at Baylor.

UCF co-OC and QB coach GJ Kinne is originally from the Dallas area and his father has been a longtime HS coach in Texas (currently at Buna HS), so there are ties there.

Anyway, Kinne has been rumored to be one of several names under consideration to be OC/QB under McGuire at Texas Tech.

Nothing will be settled right away as interim HC Sonny Cumbie is also in play to keep the job. There have been other names mentioned as well.

Trying to decide if I want to enter the coaching carousel or the elite linebacker transfer category

"No originally ineligible receiver shall be or have been more than three yards beyond the neutral zone until a passer throws a legal forward pass that crosses the neutral zone. A player is in violation of this rule if any part of his body is beyond the three-yard limit."

There's some legitimate traction being gained on changing this rule to state one yard instead of three yards. If changed the RPO as you know and love in NCAA football might become almost irrelevant. In simple terms: In modern NCAA football what's happening is offensive lineman have three yards that they can charge towards linebackers. This essentially forces the LB's to play the run every time. In turn, the QB pulls the ball in and throws a pass. This is a changeable rule a lot of coaches in the NCAA feel can help mitigate against an offense friendly rule book right now.

This isn't a new idea it's been floated for several years now but I'm picking up that this seems inevitable. For the record, it's one yard in the NFL.

I just renewed for next year and bought 2 extra tickets in the Cabana. I'll be selling those 2 off next year to offset my softball lot donation.

For those that do this, did you have good luck getting rid of your tix? If I can average $75/ticket for the year I'd call it a good investment but wonder how the market was this past year for those doing what I'm doing. TIA

The replies are entertaining!

No surprise that UCF dominates. Login to view embedded media

Riley to Southern Cal could impact timing with UCF to the Big XII.

OU is about to be gutted and Texas is still trash: there is incentive for both of them to drag their feet into the SEC. Is it worth either of these programs to pay the price to get into the SEC early?

Meh, I'm probably just making shit up.

Bless Harris, an offensive tackle who began his collegiate career at Lamar, announced his transfer commitment to UCF on Thursday.

A native of New Orleans and graduate of St. Augustine High School, the 6-foot-4 Harris redshirted during his first year at Lamar in 2018. He played in 10 games and started two during 2019 as a redshirt freshman. He was promoted to Lamar's starting left tackle as a sophomore in 2020 before his season was cut short due to injury.

Harris is set to graduate from Lamar later this year and he will enroll at UCF this coming January. He will have at least two seasons of eligibility remaining.

As for what put UCF on top, Harris texted, "Atmosphere, the culture and team overall needs."

The opportunity is certainly there as UCF's starting five on the offensive line features three seniors between left tackle Marcus Tatum, left guard Cole Schneider and right tackle Samuel Jackson, though Schneider and Jackson have the option to pick up an additional year of eligibility due to COVID.

Harris was also considering South Florida, Tulane, Western Kentucky, Virginia and UTSA.

UCFSports.com hopes to connect with Harris later today for more on his decision.
