    I just consider them as more information to digest as part of the wholistic picture. Truly amazing though the bubble people put themselves in. I guess it makes many things really simple.

    Saw what he did up close and personal at USF. One of the most impressive things I've seen in the sport being honest.

    People who cite his record aren't educated on the guy, and with his background being Western Kentucky and USF I don't blame them.

    Listen, man, I do have trust in you, but Landry reporting that has me shook. He's legit as far as sources go. That doesn't guarantee anything. It could all be a smokescreen from Chip's people, but man, I am actually shook for the first time.

    I actually was thinking of all the Rooney rule interviews that go on at the NFL level. Feels like the same thing. Like too much of the specific reason for nothing right now got out there, and they needed to put on the show to ensure that nothing can come back and bite Chip or UF on the off-set money with the 49ers. Just how it feels based on the confidence level of guys for almost a day. Seemed like a noise machine came on this afternoon and feels on purpose. Just a feeling, I have zero inside knowledge of it.

    You should be. Any smart skeptical person should be worried now instead of lying to themselves about how this is all fake news. That is just an incredibly ignorant take to have

    Show me something better that’s reputable and reliable as I previously mentioned.

    True, I'm honestly surprised all the players on O stayed committed to Mac/Nuss. I forgot about the few wanting certain coaches retained. But when we land Kelly it almost shouldn't matter. No doubt he'll bring in a monster staff.

    I agree with this. I want Chip. I think he's an elite coach, but if he chooses to go elsewhere, fuck him. We're still the Gators. We'll be back soon, with or without him.

    You either believe Chip and Gators are navigating around the SF contract and perpetuating fake news, or you don't.

    If you don't believe that's the case, this ain't looking too good

    If you believe it as its been reported, just hang onto your butt, and ride the waves. The wild ride will be worth it if your faith is vindicated

    Correct me if wrong but you’re on the record as having a source, right? If so, any word to legitimize today’s reports?

    Thing to remember is there are a lot better options here and now than in 2014. Our 5th choice would be a major upgrade.

    I think if we don't hear something tomorrowthat is concrete and definitive from a reputable, quotable source that Kelly will be next coach then he aint coming. I hope I'm wrong because I'd really like him as our coach. But Squishy Snediker isnt going to wait until Sunday or Monday when TAMU, Arky, OlMiss, UT and others start courting Frost, Holgerson, Campbell, Norvell and other employed coaches. He fired mac early so he could get a jump on those schools. He cant waste any more time waiting on kelly to make up his mind.

    People still believe the SF contract story? I don’t like Dooley but him saying the UAA knows nothing about it is likely true.

    He'd actually fix our problems wouldn't be the overnight success Chip would be, but Taggart would have us contending in 2-3 seasons, with an extremely stable foundation. Isn't as splashy, isn't as sexy as Chip, but man would I be happy.

    If Taggart was at USF Frost would be firmly the second most desired coach in the AAC for good reason. Taggart's the more dynamic personality, and he's the better offensive mind IMO as exampled by his success calling multiple schemes

    I think sources for UCLA would not be something most of us have here.
