All FB coaching rumors and speculation

Something interesting on flightaware.

This plane runs regularly out of Norman and is scheduled from Meridian MS to Norman in a few minutes.

Venables was out recruiting in AL yesterday and is still on the road.

It is an interesting question as Mark Stoops was listed as "age being a concern" (too old) when there was a discussion about potential replacements for the bigger programs in need of an HC. And he is 54 (or close to that age)!

This raises a good point I was thinking about in my earlier post. Things are shifting and I think what people would consider young/old is definitely different than what it was years ago.

I think success of people like Campbell, Fleck, Riley, etc are changing attitudes.

Wrong.
If he leaves someday for another college ND or whoever he's still working with that age group of young men regardless of the business side of it. My original post was against him going to the NFL (Browns or Bust). Coaching those guys and their mentality and egos is a different thing all together.

Fleck is a goober. He can recruit well, flat out cannot coach on gameday.

Kelly is only in it for the money. He'll be gone in a few years with a bag full of cash and a new job on College Gameday, making insane predictions and putting on mascot headgear.

IMO very few coaches can stay at a school more than 10 years and keep things fresh. Just natural for driven people to test themselves with a new challenge and I think that is what Brian Kelly is doing.

I imagine LSU is giving him some great coin to pay his assistant coaches. Kelly has always seemed to have a eye for talent, I think he will be fine at LSU.

But the competition is tough, so no guarantees. There is a fine line for defining success in the SEC- Smart v Jimbo

I find it absolutely fascinating that nobody went with Kelly. Surprised? I don’t know. I have my opinions of the man and have read what I’ve read about him too, but I’ve never been around him, so theoretically my thoughts of him could be completely wrong.

Fascinating. That’s all.

I do not like this post as it puts me even more so on the wrong side of the young/old line.
