I think Dryden has brought up the guys who are definitely on the hot seat entering the season. There is a progression to getting fired. First, it's the position coaches, then the coordinators, and, when there is no more blame to be passed on, the head man. The above names have all let well known assistants go recently. The above names all deal with rabid fan bases who are used to winning. The schools that the above names coach for, all have the financial ability to reach settlements and still hire a quality new guy. The key to the above keeping their jobs will be winning the marquee games. I don't think the fan bases of those schools will tolerate losses to certain opponents. And to keep our Texas guests happy, I'd throw Franchione onto the hot seat as well. The Aggies have a lot of money, or at least they used to, they don't like to lose, and patience is wearing thin. Makes for a very interesting upcoming football season.
