Most penalized SEC head coaches in the last 20 years.
We are the most penalized SEC team over a 20 year period.
The first chart just shows annual penalty rankings (so many years at 1).
But the second is pretty wild. Florida has accumulated 270 penalties above the FBS average, more than double second place.
That’s only about one extra penalty per game, but sustained over 20 years, it really adds up.
Includes all current SEC teams, even before they joined.

2026 P4 Blue-Chip Snap Share vs. Net EPA, Thru Wk 6
Not full roster - only looking at who plays. Offense vs. Defense in replies. ⬇️
Utah: #4 net EPA, #54 blue-chip snaps
/ Oregon, A&M: top 8 in blue-chips, #35 & #63 net
/ Indiana: #4 D with 5 blue-chips on it
PFF snaps. Opp-adjusted EPA, no garbage time. Blue chip = high school or transfer 4-star or 5-star.

A #110 unit usually climbs the next year no matter who's calling it. A top-10 unit usually slips. So each new play-caller is graded against where his unit was expected to land. FBS rank, opponent-adjusted EPA per play, through Week 7.

Ole Miss will face its 5th ranked opponent of the season this weekend at Texas.
That’s more ranked opponents than No. 1 Miami, No. 4 Notre Dame, No. 8 Texas Tech and No. 9 UCLA have faced COMBINED.

There is a hidden cost when coaches fail to manage their own stress.
Your players can see and experience it.
A 2017 study found that elite athletes will detect a coach’s stress through changes in communication, behavior, and emotional expression.
Most importantly, players perceive stressed coaches as LESS effective leaders.
The lesson here isn’t that coaches shouldn’t feel stress.
It’s recognizing that how you regulate yourself is a fundamental leadership skill and critical to your overall effectiveness and impact.

The median salary for an admissions officer at UCLA is $74,076. They can now gamble on the admissions rates they govern. 🤪
Kalshi told federal regulators it's putting up betting markets on the admissions rate at top colleges, including @Princeton, @Stanford, @Penn, @DukeU, @UCLA, @WashU and others. This creates new insider trading risks at all these schools. (h/t @DustinGouker)
