And that Stanford - USC game ... I'm still wondering, what goes through Barkleys mind, now?


The offensive line didn't play very well....I kind of think that killed Barley and sunk the Trojans.

"These are 110 Coaching-Changes in 5 years; means in average 90% of all programs did change their leader in the last 5 years."

Tss, tss, tss... Thought you were math-related Could be a much more valid and interesting stat with a deeper look:

How many teams changed their coach multiple times over those 5 years?

And: How many percent of the teams really changed their coach in those 5 years?

I know, it's a tough one to look at, but I just don't think that those "average 90%" is something you can work with.

Anyway: Great work as always. Thanks and keep it up!

There are 124 Teams and 110 Changes. OK it's around 89% of all teams, if you just take those two number. Don't pick on me. because of that 1-dot-something too much I mentioned.
Of course there were teams with no changes in the last 5 year and more.
If you just look at the teams with coaches with 5 years or more under their belt at that program, it's 33 Teams with those coaches, or about 27% of all schools in the FBS. So a little bit more than every 4th school has a coach working for longer than 4 years.
Still an impressive number, that 3 of 4 teams changed their coaches once or more in the last 5 years.

Longest reigning coaches at the moment are:
California Jeff Tedford 10
Missouri Gary Pinkel 11
Oregon State Mike Riley 11
Wake Forest Jim Grobe 11
Georgia Mark Richt 11
TCU Gary Patterson 12
Iowa Kirk Ferentz 13
Oklahoma Bob Stoops 13
Texas Mack Brown 14
Kansas State Bill Snyder 20
Troy Larry Blakeney 21
Virginia Tech Frank Beamer 25
Nevada Chris Ault 27

That are 13 coaches.
All other coaches have less than ten years under their belt.

Was picking on that 89/90%. It's the 73/90% difference, since 27% of the schools kept their coach in the last five years.

Week 5 review is online and I want to ask again for feedback.

I know that some people vote and some not, that's OK.

But I would like to get some feedback especially if you don't like the blog.

- is it because it's college football?
- is it because I don't pick your favorite team?
- is it because I write crappy english?
- is it because I write senseless previews and reviews?
- is it because I write too much?
- is it because I write not enough?
- is it because I write not deep enough stuff?
- is it because I write too much explainations?

I know I can't satisfy all of you, but at least I would like to know, maybe I can change some stuff.

I like it just fine.

Also did you saw the Buckeyes vs Michigan State highlights (I didn't saw the game)?

Michigan fans started to shout out (He's a Pu$$y) when Ohio State QB got hit late and out of bounds by a Michigan State player...

That's something you don't see everyday, usualy people stand in silence when this sort of situation happens. I don't like any of these two teams for obvious reasons (Wolverines Fan), actually I like the Buckeyes even less than the Spartans, but seriously, that's just retarded from the fans to taunt a player on the ground like that.

Edit- To add Video
