Coach Niamatolola Ken is not leaving Navy. If he didn't go to BYU, he's not going to Nebraska.

There are only rumors right now (the pink, dotted line), but we'll eventually use those colors when actual hires are made.

Sorry, I'll rephrase. Have we seen actual reports with potential replacements?

Hocutt is a little busy, at the moment. He'll get on it sometime in December.......

Here in Lubbock on the radio they talk about Brent Venbles having some sort of relationship with Hocutt all the time. He's the only name I've heard thrown around here in town.

Actual reports are only infinitesimally more reliable than message board speculation.

Heck, most of the reports probably are spawned from message board posts.

Whoa! Venables would be a great hire! Complete repudiation of Leach offenses and hire a coach with visceral hatred for the Sooners. (Well, Bob Stoops to be precise but point remains, he would love beating Oklahoma.)

Bruh, you've just earned a deeply unsatisfying, carousel-related GIF.

Malzahn to Arkansas is just silly. Won't happen.

Dallas Morning News is saying Chad Morris to Tech in their SportsDay writers round table:

"Grosbard: Expect a lot of Chad Morris talk. He was the runner-up when Tech hired Kingsbury and would probably prefer to stay in Texas if he has the chance."

Interesting they are showing Jimbo to Auburn. The Auburn job won't be "open" until after January 1st unless Malzahn bails before the bowl.
