(h/t 14er). Who's gonna be? Melvin? Dave Aranda? Jakes Franklin? Joe Brady? Billy Napier? Ed O's buyout is $17M (h/t Creebuzz), about a dollar more than luminaries like HCKD. I would say Ed O will retire and go into broadcasting, but.....Lincoln Riley? (h/t Albaster Yak) . Add UK's Mark Stoops to the list (h/t CarolinaBuff) No Lincoln Riley, apparently. (h/t Jens)

TCU- Gary Patterson gets the heave ho. (h/t BCS and Duff). TCU does a coaching drive by on SMU and snatches up Sonny Dykes. (h/t Carolina) A little bit of insider flavor, had a sit down with some TCU insiders over Thanksgiving, Patterson was told to rearrange his staff and let some AC's go, he declined, in a, shall we say, colorful manner. Two days later he was fired unceremoniously. Overplayed his hand.

N. Texas- Seth Littrell siting at about .500 UNT rolls UTSA, job saver?
UNLV- Arroyo 0-12. (h/t ahoelsken)
kNU- Frosty probably done before the end of the year according to Steve Sipple. Not so fast my friend, trev Alberts restructures Frosty's contract and announces he will be back for 2022 (h/t DeNiro) OC Matt Lubick, OL Greg Austin, RB Ryan Held, and QB Mario Verduzco sacrificed that Frosty may coach another day.
