Also kind of a slap in the face to Tiller and his assistants ... if it goes through, that should make for some interesting staff meetings next year!
Could be an interesting turnover of coaches in the coming years ... Iowa and Purdue have seemed ripe for change for awhile, the Zooker could be gone soon by bigger offers if his success continues or Neuheiseled out if rumors prove true, Indiana's in a tough spot (kind of like West Virginia this year or Miami with Coker) where they almost had to sign the assistant but that could pan out and, of course, there's always the question of when JoePa steps down. Personally, I hope he waits Bobby out and then gets whatever he needs to make sure Bowden is not #1 in victories.
I think Rodriguez will be good for Michigan after the initial adjustment, and Dantonio could be dangerously good as MSU's coach. Tressel might feel some heat for a second straight title game loss, but he's still coach for as long as he wants it (plus, if their underclassment return, OSU could make it back for a third time next year ... either to be the "third time's a charm" feel-good story or to become the Buffalo Bills of college football ... as much as it's schadenfreude watching the Bucks self destruct despite how bad it makes the league look and inflates SEC egos, there would be something funny about it if Georgia defeated OSU in next year's BCS title game).
Oh well ... it's that sad time of the season until spring football begins. :)
GO CATS!!!
