Pimple and Wing do not seem to share your optimism.

Frankly you are correct toddaz.. Have you once heard the mention of great recruiter as a point of strength? Don’t tell me these kids know who he is . He is not the splash guy you think he is. These kids don’t really know him. He is just a guy to them. Frost I’m sure is on their radar for all the Florida kids.

Consider the source. Florida could resurrect Vince Lombardi from the grave and hire him as their head coach, and they'd find a way to be negative about it. By the way, it's not calling out a poster when it's true. Those two are never, ever positive, ever.

Huh? Where am I negative? In fact read my last post. I’m very encouraged. I just disagreed with the imminent hiring of Chip Kelly. It wasn’t happening. Unless bentrill is SS, which I doubt, he doesn’t know either. The gator side is silent.

It may be wrong of me but I'm hoping Sumlin gets canned so we can get Chavis. Any insight on other DCs we should be looking at? I'm an offensive guy myself, even though I played corner as a kid. Go figure.

No but I hope our next HC is shrewd enough to find a gem, a Dan Quinn clone. I hope it turns out we have a decent roster for our next coach.

Honestly: you think Frost would be negotiating with another team during his undefeated run headed into a bowl game?

If there's deep negotiating going on right now it's with someone not in that position.

I would think.

It’s a good point. Dunno, wouldn’t say no. He might not be involved but win it comes to big time money, some people don’t want to miss the boat even if it requires your agent to do some work while you coach.

All jokes aside, this is much more fun than the last coaching search on here. I think we all are confident (even if we play skeptical on this baord) that we're not about to be stuck with a dumpster fire of a coach.

I'm not. But maybe that's just me.

If this dude is the next coming like many say he is, hes gonna get paid whether it's UF or not.

With all the Mark Twain quotes being thrown around, I do wish I could have met the man. Of course, since his most recognized work was The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, who lived on the Mississippi, maybe our next head coach is currently in Mississippi.....

Please don’t dislike. It’s a friggin joke.

And he did turn them around. The point is, he had to start over every time he went to a new school. Do you think his record would be the same if he were at WKU or USF for all 8 years?

Hard to say but .500 after 49 games does not seem like a turnaround but I did not see the individual season records.

Another day is wrapping up and this just keeps dragging on? I couldn't take it anymore and decided I had to take action and write Stricklin a poem. It's more rhyme than reason, but hopefully it establishes some urgency.
____________________________

Come on man, get moving, let's go,
this coaching search is interminably slow

It's time to dangle some big time dough
But if Dan Mullen bites, just say no

And for all that is good and righteous and holy
Please don't listen to Jeremy Foley

With him it's another diamond in the rough
and gator fans have had enough

...of Zook and Champ and McElwain
We can't take any more of that pain

To fix a program that has started to rust
the motto has to be: In Chip we trust
A lesser hire will get you cussed
and everyone knows Charlie Strong's a bust

So make the call and give Kelly a shot
If you don't give it your all, your seat will be hot

It's the only way without selling our souls
that we're guaranteed to own the Noles

But like most Gators, I've come to fear
that with our luck he'll never come here

He's so in demand with his bag of tricks
He knows he doesn't have to live in the sticks

He could literally coach anywhere he picks
and the SEC has too many hicks

If you don't make it clear that you're willing to pay
Chip's probably headed to UCLA

But have no fear, all hope is not lost
You can drive to Orlando and grab Scott Frost

He's no guarantee and may be a reach
if he loves the Huskers better than the beach

But you don't have to stand there and stomp and screech
Just pick up the phone and call Mike Leach

Some of our fans would call you a sinner
but you know damn well he'd make us a winner

If he says no, to the Aggies I'm bound
Yep, you're hearing that frightening sound

...of an approaching Tide and a Hurricane
knowing your options are down to Lane

At that point you can fret and obsess
Or just walk down the hall for SOS

Or do what you want, 'cause you're the boss
and we've got your back.... until the first loss

Nice work

Thing that makes me not believe any of this ...when the Mac firing was imminent all the major CFB insiders were reporting it...right now radio silence from them

Oh yeah, he's gonna get paid. Which makes me think it won't be by UF considering we are frugal.

Rawpimple · Nov 13, 2017

I still believe our hire comes beginning of December. By that time, kelly will be getting charred and this thread will be 6500 pages.

I'm thinking it's clickbait on steroids. I'll be very surprised if CK winds up being hired.

Heitner reported the Mac buyout stuff before it happened. And he's reporting about Kelly.
