This is HUGE.......Coordinators that see the level of success IU has often end up in head coaching positions in a short amount of time. One of the keys to Cignetti's success has been his ability to limit the amount of turnover on his staff. https://247sports.com/college/indiana/article/indiana-football-report-indiana-signs-defensive-coordinator-bryant-haines-to-a-new-contract-makes-him-one-of-the-nations-highest-paid-assistants-266275740/?fbclid=IwY2xjawOpkylleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEe3BGZONNVRCBTmD1l6s_tokecyLrQmochwalr2yGHdcNglSb9Obvf7LDor_c_aem_KzlrECfzFzRo1DqZtgMT_Q

Agreed. But keep in mind, that money is just for getting in the playoff. Each time one of those teams advances, it's an additional $4 Million, I believe. I agree.....but with qualifiers, it will be 16. It's kind of funny seeing people go crazy about the ND agreement for next year. It's based on a 12 team format. I have no doubt it will be 16.

And this is a great follow up point regarding the notion that just expanding the playoff solving the current issues.

Some things to consider. I have been bothered by the ACC's approach leading up to the selection, and have felt that ESPN itself was participating in that. This breakdown furthers my claim. I am not posting this as a defense of Notre Dame not getting selected, just a general issue with what ESPN has become.

I will own that one; I usually do check. That said, I stand by the additional comment that heads in administration should roll.

I will enjoy watching lil Micah's career end more.

31-19 against

Michigan fires the AD. It seems with the issues in recent years, maybe more heads should roll? At the very least anyone who had knowledge should be dismissed. The most comical thing that could come out of this is where does Kiffin land? If DeBoer goes to Michigan, I think we all know that Bama is the job Kiffin really wants.

And just getting worse

I did…great story. 😂

Wow

I would take the bet he does not go. he just signed an extension one year ago. he is getting $9 Million a year now with it. The extension also removed the Ohio State and NFL opt outs. That means he is locked in with Notre Dame until 2030. If he goes, he will owe the school. Daboll was getting $5 Million a year from the Giants. Are they really going to double that?
