I know, this is the 3rd megathread this week, but let’s face it: there’s a lot of news this time of year. Even I hadn’t been able to keep up with the coaching carousel (when I saw Texas was losing Choate, I didn’t even know the Nevada job had opened).

    Of course.

    On the other hand, if anyone wants to post rumors and draw wild speculations, I’m all ears. I need fresh meme material. The Christmas tree, hotel curtains, and countless flight tracker stories need company
