    I'll give you those odds for $1000 even knowing I could never pay if it happened. Think about it. That's 10 MILLION DOLLARS that I would pay you at the rate of $100 a month.

    Yep, 0% chance of Taggart being fired, (unless a major scandal strikes him down), he's more likely to be named PAC12 Coach of the year.
    USC high expectations, Washington high expectations, Stanford high expectations,.. Those coaches need to be almost perfect.

    Oregon, coming off a horrible year, with a new coach and an all new staff,.. low/moderate expectations. If Taggart has the Ducks playing well, knocks off furd and/or the fuskies, makes it a battle for the pac-north crown,.. then yep, Coach T has a shot at PAC Coach of the year,.. certainly better than a 0% chance.

    Living around A&M fans, I think Sumlin's days are numbered. He would have been gone before now if not for the ridiculous buyout extension they gave him after Manziel made him look so good.

    I don't know how Brian Kelly made it through last year, so I would imagine it's do or die for him.

    Sumlin is on an extremely short leash with zero room for another late-season collapse.

    Jones is yet another in a string of unsuccessful head coaching ventures since Fulmer was fired.

    Kiffin is at a school no one cares about, so his job is probably safe--but he won't be there long. He's using it as a stepping stone (kinda like he did at Tennessee, which insulted the Vols mightily.)

    Orgeron should be on an extremely short leash, but with our stupid athletic admin, who knows? However, remember that we fired Miles because he wasn't winning the West. Do we see O winning the West this year?

    Orgeron is safe this year. He's not on a short leash with a $12 mil buyout. He has at very least 2 years. Regardless of how the hiring went and what ppl think about O's coaching ability based on a job he held 10 years ago, they will not fire a head coach with a new OC installing a new system after 1 full season.

    Miles was fired because he had steered the program into a downhill slide and was too stubborn to apply the brakes.
