Up and Coming Programs in NCAA Football 09

[wazzucoug02]

Good list and I agree with most of them.

I think you should do a list of the schools that have first year head coaches. I for one love taking over a program that has a new coach, because well...it's more realistic then taking over for Joe Pa. I'm just happy that my Cougs have a new coach this year so it just makes sense that I should be taking over.

Just a thought.

I think I have narrowed it down to Clemson or Georgia Tech myself. Not sure which of the two I want to do yet.

Not a bad idea man. I might just do that in the coming days as I used to do that as well

Obviously this is a homer thing to say but Colorado imho is an up and coming type of team. Young qb,oline and wr's,young D...a top 15 recruiting class that included the top rb prospect and 2 top 10 lb prospects.

Ditto for Pitt. LeSean McCoy on O,a GREAT D and a top 25 recruiting class.

Colorado isn't a bad choice. For the purposes of this article I was talking about schools you could take in year one and realistically have a shot to win 10-12 games right off the bat with a team that usually isn't considered a contender. I think both Colorado and UNC (mentioned earlier) are programs on the rise, but neither team is loaded with enough talent to win 10-12 games this year.
