November 30, 2007 | 1 Comment
Dave Wannstedt seems like a decent enough guy. And his mustache is perfect for Pittsburgh. But he’s 15-19 in his 3 years at Pitt. They’re not showing any signs of improvement. And according to our calculations he’s the 107th best coach in the country. So why are the Panthers getting […]

The New Nebraska Coach is…
November 29, 2007 | Leave a Comment
Tom Osborne. Well, at least temporarily.
Osborne, already the interim athletic director, named himself interim coach so he can hit the recruiting trail. He doesn’t want recruiting efforts to get neglected while they search for a new coach. And he’s probably qualified.
Actually he’s definitely qualified. He had to take an NCAA certification […]
