but they want him to caoch the final game, and then they will look for someone to coach the Bowl Game.

They have a QB recruit (Bryce Brown) that PSU has kept in contact with.....and he might decommit....

But Mack just said he will be back next year!!!!
WTF?!?!?!

He is going to coach against nc state on Saturday. Why not just sh|tcan him on Sunday?

Speculation that I read was that University told him to retire and then he made that announcement, so they were forced to fire him.

$15 million to NOT go to work! I gotta get me one of these jobs!

 

[WVilleLion23]

Go Pack! Make sure he goes out with a L.

 

[NittPicker]

He can't complain that UNC didn't give him a fair chance the second time around. 2.0 has been pretty average. If UNC was really serious about football they would have shown him the door a couple years ago. Maybe his contract would have made that difficult to do.

Maybe he has season tickets?

 

[Lionville]

Maybe he has season tickets?

As a parting gift?

If he wants to coach.....right now.....the following are open (that I can think of)....

Temple
FAU
Tulsa

he could put in a couple more years and then retire when he wants to.....

I would imagine that if he retired he forfeited the bulk of his payout money. It perhaps was as they say a “Business Decision” by Mack. At 73 I doubt that a firing would be detrimental to his long term coaching prospects.

I see what you did there.

I was just talking to my coworker about this. Her son has been committed to UNC and Brown for 1 year now. He loved Brown and now a week out his future is up in the air. Tough spot.

Her son wouldn't happen to be a top 10 QB recruit by any chance?

Wouldn't have to move far for the Charlotte job.

i did not know the Charlotte job had opened up.

Biff went down last week. Not a good root for the Harbaugh coaching tree.

No, a 3* Edge.

Brown did lose his QB1 in the first game of the season with a gruesome leg injury against Minnesota. Max Johnson is the son of Super Bowl winner Brad Johnson. He looked good in that game leading up to the injury, and has stated his intention to come back next year.

It won’t happen at unc since Brown is out, but when will we see a high-NIL. player try to influence a school‘s decision on a coach (retain one or hire one)? ”I play for Coach ____ or I hit the portal.”

”College” Football

It has already happened. It's why Billy Napier still has a job at Florida.

He'll be paid. If he had retired, he would have been retained for two years in an administrative role, paying his base.

Steelers OC Smith contacted by alma mater UNC

Steelers offensive coordinator and UNC alum Arthur Smith said he had a preliminary conversation with North Carolina about their head coach vacancy, but is happy in Pittsburgh.

Would the Stillers go after Matt Canada again?

Dan Mullen may be in play.
