[QUOTE="pressvirginia, post: 129404532, member: 1348623"] Good article over at Tucson.com if you're interested in a take on coaching changeover nationally. Don't know if it's protocol to link it but here are some excerpts: "Coaching chaos is no longer just a USC thing. Coaches are getting fired earlier and more often than ever before. When Hawaii canned Norm Chow on Sunday — what is it with former USC assistants and the firing line? — it marked the 10th Division I FBS opening of the year. The others: Central Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Miami (Fla.), Minnesota, North Texas, South Carolina and Virginia Tech. “Ten already?” UA coach Rich Rodriguez asked. “I don’t remember it ever being this many, this soon.” Rodriguez, who could benefit from the revolving door — more on that later — said coaches’ salaries and the influx of television money have changed universities’ priorities. Power-conference schools have no patience for underperforming coaches, he said, especially when television money cannot only buy him out but pay for his replacement. Gone are the days when an underperforming coach was allowed to finish the season — and when replacements were vetted in private, and not on the Internet. Universities, flush with money and devoid of patience, are more likely than ever to hire established head coaches. Rodriguez has been linked to the openings at Miami, South Carolina and Virginia Tech; his relationship with Hokies athletic director Whit Babcock makes him, in many eyes, the school’s top candidate. On Tuesday, Yahoo Sports included the UA coach on its list of 10 possible Beamer replacements. Whether he stays or goes, Rodriguez knows the pressure is on to perform. “It used to be that you’d have four, five, six years to build your program,” Rodriguez said. “Now, the patience is a lot less. Three is the new five.” [/QUOTE]
