I think CC is safe at EMU - both in terms of being fired and in terms of taking another job - but I'm curious to see if some of our rivals lose their coaches to bigger programs - CMU in particular.

Familiar face Kalen Deboer has been linked to both Washington and Wazzu.

Dear dansplaining,
I don't think Central's coach will be picked up because of his past history. Also, he hasn't really accomplished an outstanding resume in Mt. Pleasant.

My buddy (CMU alum) talk about McElwain a lot. CMU is really talented, young and they recruit well. He could have them ranked by end of next year which would turn heads and get attention end of next season.

I dont see him leaving now though. He received the last of his Florida installment payments this year which brings his overall salary back down to only what CMU gives him.

I don't see anybody on the list looking at anyone from the MAC with the exception of Akron and UMass, two pretty crappy jobs most likely to be filled by a hungry, yet unaccomplished P5 assistant. Think along the lines of a Chris Ash-Ron English type person.

The problem we may have is the collateral damage of job openings when a rich P5 program snags a Deboer from Fresno St or Fickell from Cincinnati. Cincy has been to the CMU coaching well twice before and both worked out quite nicely for them. The LSU, USC and Washington donor bases would not stomach anything less than a PJ Fleck undefeated season type from the MAC. The school they poach a coach from, however, like Western Kentucky or UTSA just might.

Mr. Barna is once again correct, McElwain has an incredible amount of baggage from his performance at Florida. That said, Sarkissian was arguably more tainted from his USC behavior and yet Texas opened up the vault for him. Steve makes a great point, "death threat Jim" has been getting paid by the both the Gator and Chippewa athletic departments up to now. Without those Florida checks coming, I would not be surprised if his agent is burning up the phones to prospective employers.

If someone can get Tom Wilson to leave Indiana i can see the hoosiers hiring a MAC coach

Speaking of coaching searches - heres what the Athletic's Chris Vannini has to say about CC:

Is it Chris Creighton’s overall record that keeps him from contention for bigger jobs? EMU is about as difficult a job as there is in the country, and he’s likely been the best coach in program history, but I never hear him mentioned for other gigs. Is it also that the MAC to Big Ten coaching pipeline has seemingly slowed? — Jim S.

That’s part of it. He’s 36-55, which is a hard sell to boosters. He also hasn’t had a breakthrough season. Typically, a MAC coach needs a 10-2 type of season to garner interest. Creighton has topped out at seven wins. That’s certainly good for a place like Eastern Michigan, but now in his eighth year, he might have hit a ceiling. If you’re a bottom-feeding Power 5 program without much success, Creighton’s track record across almost every level of college football indicates the guy knows how to win, how to raise the floor and how to make the most of a tough situation. But it’s hard to sell to fans someone who hasn’t won more than seven games.

Meanwhile up in E. Lansing...

That is the most cogent explanation of Creighton's situation I have heard to date.

Dan you are right, Indiana is a possibility, their donors are more interested in MBB than football, similar to Kansas who hired Buffalo's Leopold. Speaking of Lance, the reviews of his Kansas performance by those in the know is favorable as Kansas has played people tough this year. A 2-8 record, however, just ain't gonna cut it with a demanding donor base like LSU.

Dear steve,
Nice reporting on Michigan State. How can one justify giving someone that kind of money for a college coach.
Hell, in my opinion, even todays professional players are over paid.
Going back to Michigan State, how do you know if their coach is even going to be around for ten more years?

Funded entirely by two boosters. Imagine being so rich that you can give the football coach at your alma mater a historic contract, making him one of the highest paid coaches in the country, regardless of sport.

Tom Allen and,CC are close. CC gave Allen his first college coaching job at Wabash. A year ago folks at IU thought Allen was golden and this year it's been a huge stumble backward. I doubt he will get fired.

It all depends on what jobs open up. Dan Mullen at Florida could end up getting fired. So can Steve Addazio at Colorado State. Cutcliffe at Duke. Diaz at Miami, Carey at Temple. A lot of jobs are going to open up.

Agree with Cid. I highly doubt he leaves EMU. I believe he has high school age kids and from what I hear he likes the area. Eventually I see him leaving but I think his dream is to take EMU down the road for a MAC championship.

He will also have a top 2 offense coming back with Ben, Drummond, Beydoun, knue, most of the line, etc.

I think it gets a lot easier to move your kids and family for a 12-15 million dollar contract somewhere - which is what he'd get at a low P5 school or a high G5 school. i wouldnt begrudge him for doing that. deboer makes 1.35 million dollars a year at fresno. if he left - would fresno hire CC?
