We think of Kyle Whittingham as a great coach but if you read the Michigan boards, most are already done with him, with many pining for Chesney. He's in Year 1.
Matt Campbell had a rep as a very good coach at Iowa St. but many already want him out at Penn St. and are lamenting their failure to land Chesney. He's in Year 1.
Lincoln Riley took Oklahoma to the playoffs multiple times, but now he is straight up despised by the USC fanbase. I also think he does not look well. In five years he has not taken them to the playoffs and fat chance he ever will.
Kalen DeBoer is doing ok but he'd better not miss the playoffs. And when he gets there he'd better win a game or two.
Lane Kiffin would have had a very good chance to win a national title at Ole Miss. Now he's probably going to miss the playoffs.
Meanwhile, Kalani Sitake is thriving after turning down Penn St.
Cignetti stayed put and is again in contention to win it all.
