Ole Miss coach out...
Rumors of Kiffin to Arky
That was hard to read.
Rumors:
- USF may re-hire Willie Taggart (Clemson co-OCs Jeff Scott and Tony Elliot also mentioned)
- Iowa State Matt Campbell denying interest in the FSU job (James Franklin and Mike Norvell also mentioned as part of the FSU search)
- Mike Norvell appears to be the leading candidate for the Ole Miss job (as long as a better offer, like FSU, doesn't come along)
- Texas fired 3 assistant coaches including DC Todd Orlando with the idea that it would buy Tom Herman time
- Former Florida HC and current Central Michigan coach Jim McElwain, Cincy HC Luke Fickell and current Ohio State DC Jeff Haley are candidates for the BC job
Norvell can do better than Ole Miss. Lots of smoke for him around the FSU job. I think Billy Napier is who will end up in Oxford. Alabama, Auburn, LSU and A&M every year is a tall task. They gave up on Matt Luke too soon.
That’s basically why the Ole Miss and Arkansas jobs suck.
Drawback for Norvell is no previous SEC coaching/recruiting experience, but he knows his way around Mississippi.
Iowa State and Matt Campbell agree to a contract extension through 2025: https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/28218069/iowa-state-gives-matt-campbell-extension-2025
Likely takes him off the table for current vacancies.
Perhaps just my imagination, but it feels like Campbell does this every year.
