Mississippi fired its head coach, Hugh Freeze, Thursday night after the university traced numerous calls to an escort service from Freeze's work phone.
Despite an ongoing NCAA investigation into the program alleging everything from ACT fixing to boosters paying $13,000 to a recruit who chose a different school, Ole Miss will field a football team in 2017.
As of now, it's slated to be led by interim head coach Matt Luke, who spent the last six seasons as the Rebels' offensive line coach and co-offensive coordinator.
Whether Luke proves capable of leading the team remains to be seen. But that won't stop sportsbooks from laying odds on the next head coach, which BookMaker.eu did Friday afternoon.
Ohio State defensive coordinator Greg Schiano, who will probably be linked to every vacancy next offseason, made the list at +1500 odds. (Wager $100, win $1500.)
The full list:
COACH | ODDS | CURRENT ROLE |
---|---|---|
MATT LUKE | +250 | INTERM OLE MISS COACH |
BLAKE ANDERSON | +300 | ARKANSAS STATE COACH |
LES MILES | +450 | FORMER LSU COACH |
CHIP KELLY | +850 | ESPN FOOTBALL ANALYST |
GREG SCHIANO | +1500 | OHIO STATE DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR |
MACK BROWN | +2000 | ESPN FOOTBALL ANALYST |
FIELD | -400 |
