Default Coaching changes -- the best part of college football

Because you get to see what an institution VALUES and what its MORALS are like.

You see the CORONATIONS and the ASSASSINATIONS, you see the PLOTTING, you see the RIDICULOUS FANS.

There is no greater pageantry in sports. No greater sordid pageantry.

College football is mainly about the coaches and the boosters (i.e. money). This is the time of the year where the games are won and lost.

You shouldn't pity the coaches. They know what they bought into, and they're like a fusion of CEO's and movie stars. They are at the pinnacle of the entertainment business.

Got it. That's a valid reason.
