Phil Fulmer has said that he wants to coach again, but only at a school that has national championship ambitions. So, I was figuring him to be UConn's biggest fan last Saturday. But, I don't see the "lady" expressing any interest in him either. So, as a back-up, I was figuring that Les would take Rich's job at the Big House and maybe Fulmer would go to LSU. That would allow him to remain in the SEC and at a serious football school. But then Les does that clock management number that more or less says he isn't interested in coaching at his alma mama. Should be fun to see how this all plays out. I realize none of this has anything to do with the great NFL legend. First of all, Jim has said all that needs to be said. Congrats on the best of your writing that I recall. I hate it when people text "LOL" and "LMAO" but that's exactly what I did this week. Great work. Now, the other questions are . . . 1) Where will Phil Fulmer go? and 2) Will Rich Rodriguez leave a floater in the Michigan Head Coach's Toilet like he did when he left Morganhole? There is no third question about Bud. There are some things I just don't want to think about. This old Hokie lives in Tennessee so I have to listen to the continuing saga in these parts too.

He so cerebral, he would have declined Dutch's offer anyway what’s scary is what might have happened if Groh had been hired as VT coach in 86 instead of Beamer?

Alas, he will have no more chances. I'm sure Bud will express his interest in the ND job. The problem seems to be reciprocal interest. Perhaps Dabo should look elsewhere for coaching role models.

Nothing would be finer than spoiling the Chicken Bowl for them 'Heels, but I don't think the cards are right. We aint dead yet, but might as well be.
