His seat has now cooled off considerably.
If the Hokies beat UVA and Clemson, does he get hired away by FSU or someone else?

Doubftul the boosters at big name/big money schools would be excited about a coach who took VT to their first losing season in over 25 years in 2018, and lost to Duke in such embarrasing fashion this year.
Doubt Fuente is looking at any lateral moves given the Coastal offers probably the easiest P5 path to success, and given VT returns 21 of 22 starters next year. Don't screw up any games, manage to squeak by Clemson, and you're suddenly in the playoff picture.
If the Oklahoma job ever opened up, I'm sure he'd be interested given his ties there. But absent that I don't see him leaving anytime soon

Penn St will be hard....
I don't know that 12-1 with only a win over Clemson being really good at all- would be close to enough. Sure as hell wouldn't this year.

If/when Franklin leaves, the new guy is in Waco.
And Penn State is hardly a dream job. It’s just like any top program with an entitled fan base that gets horrifically wretched when things aren’t to their liking. Like death threats to a quarterback bad...
Some fans there are so bad and unbearable. I read stuff on the board...you’d swear the Bill O’Brien years saw no victories at all hearing over and over that it was “the worst” era of PSU football. Uhh, St. Joe was lucky to keep his job during that 2000-2004 span.

If they ushered him out then, maybe he’d still have a statue up.

RE: 2019 FBS Coaching Hot Seat
Bob Davie out at New Mexico after this season
https://www.espn.com/college-football/st...season-end
Quote:New Mexico coach Bob Davie will not return as the Lobos' football coach in 2020, the school announced Monday.
Davie, who is 35-63 since taking over in November 2011, will coach the Lobos (2-9, 0-7 Mountain West) in the regular-season finale against Utah State on Saturday.
"In stepping aside, I'm proud of what we accomplished at UNM, but we are all disappointed that we have not been able to sustain the success that we achieved and all desire," Davie said in a statement. "My family and I will be forever grateful to UNM for giving me the opportunity to coach again."
His eight-season tenure is tied for the second-longest in program history. Davie was hired at New Mexico after spending 10 years at ESPN, which followed a five-year run as the head coach at Notre Dame (1997-2001), where he went 35-25.
"After meeting with Coach Davie this morning, we both agree that the time has come for a new direction for our football program," New Mexico athletic director Eddie Nuñez said in a statement. "I'm appreciative of the work that Coach Davie has done at UNM."
Davie's best season at New Mexico came in 2016, when the Lobos won nine games and the New Mexico Bowl. That 23-20 win against UTSA is one of the program's two bowl wins since 1961. The other came in 2007 under current San Diego State coach Rocky Long.
Since 2016, New Mexico has gone just 2-21 in Mountain West play.

Not if Urban Meyer wants it.
That is probably how it goes -- they sound out Meyer and maybe Bob Stoops.
If they can't get one of those guys, then their only options will be G5 head coaches who had a good year and P5 head coaches who might just be looking to move because they want to get out of their current job before it gets worse (like Jimbo Fisher a couple of years ago). And if that's the situation, then the boosters won't pony up for Helton's buyout.

Indeed. He's won 6 games since then and almost pulled off a stunner in South Bend.

Word around Starkville is that Joe Moorhead is gone tomorrow, regardless of what happens against Ole Miss, and that Billy Napier will be the next head coach at Mississippi State.

For the best IMO. Moorhead and MSST are just a bad fit.

will be interesting to see how many guys get fired this weekend, which is Black Saturday/Black Sunday in the college football coaching world.

The quote in the first sentence is right. Matt Rhule has surprised me winning in the Big 12-2 with a defensive game scheme. Impressive.
