I agree too, Sampson will get another shot, maybe not a MAJOR team, but some mid-major will probably take him in a few years. Same with Pearl. They are both good coaches. If you can get them to not lie about a few things and to not make so many phone calls, they'll be great for some programs in the future.

I wouldn't be so sure about Sampson. A lot of coaches were upset with how he threw his assistants under the bus during his Indiana scandal. The world of ADs and coaches is a pretty small one, which is another reason why I doubt Pearl gets another job. He already has two huge strikes against him, what AD is going to put his job on the line for him. Would you really trust Bruce Pearl in that situation?

It all will depend on winning. If an AD feels he a winner they all will get jobs.

I doubt BP will be hired anytime soon, but don't overlook TV. The guy has charisma and TV loves charisma. Don't be surprised if BP ends up a TV Network analyst.
