OutKick The Tailgate: Clay Travis On Job Openings Around CFB

Published|Updated

OutKick's Clay Travis joined OutKick the Tailgate with Jonathan Hutton, Chad Withrow, and Jill Savage to talk about Virginia Tech's head coaching vacancy and who could be a top candidate to replace Justin Fuente, along with the other open spots.

From Oxford, Mississippi, ahead of the Ole Miss and Vanderbilt matchup, Travis gave his thoughts on James Franklin, Mel Tucker, Mark Stoops and other coaches and openings around College Football. Listen to his comments:

"There aren't that many accomplished head coaches and with all these big jobs coming open ...," Travis said. "Ultimately, a lot of these programs are going to end up having to hire someone who is not of a particular exciting manner for their football program and I wonder how that's all going to shake out as well."

OutKick 360’s Chad Withrow and the crew took some time Tuesday to rank the nine CFB open coaching positions — Withrow said he thinks the best available coaching job on the market right now is USC.
