Less than 24 hours after a potential deal with Kentucky's Mark Stoops fell apart, Texas A&M hired Duke coach Mike Elko (a former Aggies defensive coordinator) to replace Jimbo Fisher.
Meanwhile, Mississippi State hired Oklahoma offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby to replace Zach Arnett.
Indiana fired Tom Allen, paying him more than $15 million to not coach (and that was after negotiating the buyout down.
Houston also fired Dana Holgorsen, paying a $15 million that Holgorsen once deemed "impossible." Andy breaks down a trio of potential candidates for that job.
It's Sunday, so Andy gives you his resume ranking top 10. It looks an awful lot like the College Football Playoff selection committee's top 10, but Andy isn't sure the committee is closely examining the resumes of four 10-2 teams. The reason that matters is made clear in Andy's projected CFP and New Years Six matchups. One or two of those 10-2 teams will be left out of the NY6.
Next, Nick Roush of Kentucky Sports Radio joins to discuss the wild weekend for Mark Stoops. It began with a flirtation with Texas A&M, continued with an upset win against Louisville and ended with a decision that Texas A&M would look elsewhere and Stoops would continue making gobs of money at Kentucky.
Later, Spencer Holbrook of On3's Lettermen Row joins to discuss what happens next for Ohio State after a third consecutive loss to Michigan. The pressure is squarely on coach Ryan Day now.
