Now "sources" are saying talks between Jones and ASU have broken down and he will not be the next coach for the Sun Devils.

- It sounds like some combination of booster/fan backlash and/or unwillingness to pay Jones' SMU buyout that led to the offer being pulled.
- More 'rumors' that Sumlin is heading to A&M.
- Also some rumors that Kansas may have interest in Gators OC Charlie Weis.

Memphis TV reporting that last night Alabama OC Jim McElwain accepted the job, only to change his mind today. New rumor has TCU co-OC Justin Fuente as accepting the job.
Charlie Weis will be the next head coach at Kansas. Probably the most interesting hire of the off-season (at least so far).
UCLA is looking at Tennessee DC Justin Wilcox.
Take a look at these HC hires in the NCAA this year....Charlie Weis, Urban Meyer, Bob Davie, Mike Leach, Rich Rodriguez...WOW
Rumors floating around that A&M has offered Mark Richt.
While the Weis hire drew skepticism and critics, it seems like Arizona State and Texas A&M have been downright dysfunctional in looking for a new coach.
If schools are going to drag some of these guys out of moth balls (Charlie Weis, Urban Meyer, Bob Davie, Mike Leach, Rich Rodriguez; Pasqualoni & Coker last year), Phil Fulmer should be getting some calls as well. Hell, Maryland fans would probably take him in a second right now.
I saw a passing mention that Ohio's former AD is now at Fresno and had some interesting in bringing Frank Solich to Fresno State. I haven't heard if that was speculation or anything legit to that rumor.
Word in Toledo is that Rockets head coach Tim Beckman will be leaving the school for a coaching position elsewhere. No word on if it will be a jump to another head coach position or an assistant position.
The Toledo media is reporting the Toledo Rockets head coach Tim Beckman has accepted an offer to become the new head coach at Illinois.
TOLEDO, OH (WTOL) – Multiple sources within the school's athletic department tell WTOL11's Jordan Strack University of Toledo Head Football Tim Beckman has accepted the head coaching job at the University of Illinois.
Beckman coached the Rockets for three seasons, with an overall record of 21 – 16, winning 16 of his 22 Mid-American Conference games. Beckman also lead Toledo to back-to-back bowl games, including their Dec. 28 match up with Air Force in the Military Bowl. Sources say it is now unlikely Beckman will coach the Rockets in that game.
Beckman makes about $400,000 per year at Toledo, and will reportedly make up to four times that amount at Illinois.

I dunno if they're getting these coaches out of moth balls, with the exception of Davie all have coached or on the radar for a position (Leach) in the last two years.
With all these former Irish flops getting jobs, where is Tyrone Willingham?

Sounds like the AD at Arizona State just pulled the deal to June Jones with no reason. Sources are saying she's not going to last the school year anyways.
It's just a saying.I don't literally think they sleep in cedar chests.
Every call probably gets him excited....only to find out it's a debt collector who misdialed.
I thought Willingham landed on his feet by getting a role on NCIS?
