It was always a low likelihood, but I would say it more or less guarantees it.
Ask in a few weeks. They close with Tennessee, Bama, Missouri and LSU.

Great news for Beamer. We can't wade into those waters, so we can't make a change even if we lose all our remaining FBS games and look hideous doing it.This profession makes millionaires out of the perceived failures of coaches.
LSU fires head coach Brian Kelly
LSU has fired Brian Kelly after three-plus seasons. Frank Wilson will serve as interim head coach. Kelly leaves Baton Rouge with a $54M buyout.
Unless we fire Beamer and hire Kelly. Formerly successful coach out of work and in his 60s. Sounds right up our alley.
I think you have a point and I'm about to do a new post - open letter to the AD....While I don't think they actively read these boards, (they should, we *ARE* the diehard fans) - I do think some of their lackeys read them, even if they'll never admit it.... my open letter to the AD will make perfect sense from a logical and financial standpoint. Give me a few minutes to put it together.
He's in a potential pre-removal situation.
I would not trade Beamer for Kelly. - I would hire Kelly as a hands on assistant, OL, clock/game management type thing..... just a general coach on staff that could coach what he sees is wrong type of thing.... That, I would do.
Yes. I think we put in more money in other sports compared to other schools.
We ain't as flush as the other people in this conference looking for coaches right now. Plus, Florida State ain't weighed in yet.

Our board is not like othersFired Brian Kelly failed to live up to LSU's 'high hopes'
A day after a 49-25 loss to Texas A&M in Baton Rouge, LSU fired coach Brian Kelly on Sunday night, with athletic director Scott Woodward announcing in a statement that "we had high hopes that he would lead us to multiple SEC and national championships."
People who can afford to do this and have the stones to do it.........ain't us.
There isn’t going to be a coaching change here. But in the interest of the question, as I wish there was an option of a change…If that was a consideration logic says change is less likely. Too many bigger jobs to compete against. There’s more big one’s this year than in 2015. That was one of the reasons we wound up with Muschamp. And who knows how jobs are now viewed in the NIL/playoff era. Maybe VT is a better job than SC now. (Maybe it has been already?)
It wouldn't shock me if they keep Petrino.
Maybe not. Some of those who lost weren't expected to win those particular games, even though they had pretty good teams themselves.
His independent schedule wasn't as strong overall as an SEC schedule plus some marquee non-conference games.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: we are mediocre because we tolerate mediocrity.
…and a contract extension.With a 5-3 start, we would be giving Kelly a raise.
