SEC Coaching Carousel
Basically already fired: Kevin Sumlin
Living on borrowed time: Gus Malzahn, Bret Bielema, Butch Jones, Barry Odom
Safe but frequently criticized: Ed Orgeron, Jim McElwain
Safe but might leave for another job: Dan Mullen, Derek Mason, Mark Stoops
Not going anywhere: Nick Saban, Kirby Smart, Will Muschamp
*Special category for Matt Luke who is likely to be replaced as Interim
At least this is the way I see it...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I were hiring for each of the following openings then these are the moves I would try to make:
Texas A&M - Chip Kelly...Kelly could have a field day with TX talent and money
Arkansas - Chad Morris...Arky has been at their best with dynamic offense and you need a guy who knows how to recruit TX
Auburn - Justin Fuente...sound offense and proven HC, something Auburn needs and he's probably affordable
Tennessee - Larry Fedora...solid HC at multiple stops, will help UT recruit the crucial state of NC
Missouri - Scott Frost...if Nebraska doesn't take him, good up and coming coach who knows the Midwest and could bring a new culture to Mizzou
Ole Miss - Bill Clark - current UAB coach...people talk about Les Miles, but OM is about to be hammered and I don't see Les being interested in this job for that reason. Clark is a very underrated guy who knows how to deal with tough circumstances and could recruit well in AL, an important state for OM. Give him some time and he could be a consistent winner.
This is all assuming that none of the other candidates change jobs which could throw a wrench in all of this.

Please let me know when Larry is leaving, I have already picked out his replacement.
