This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.splitzoneduo.com

The latest episode of THE JOB, our subscriber series about the ins and outs of open college football coaching jobs, features four schools.

* Stanford: A once-great Pac-12 program has fallen like a rock as it’s transitioned to the ACC. But the Cardinal are amid a serious fundraising push, and this bad job could become a good job once again.

* Oregon State: No program in college football has had a harder past two years than the Beavers. What will be left for a new coach to take over, and is the athletic department’s financial house in order?

* UAB: This program had some good years after coming back from the dead, but the Blazers’ problems go a lot deeper than Trent Dilfer being a bad hire. What kind of coach makes sense? We have an idea.

* Kent State: Arguably the hardest job in FBS, full stop.
