    There’s less than a 0.00% chance of that happening, here.

    1/2 the reason he would be my top pick. The other half is watching the high tempo O after Nopeiers sap rolling down a tree in the winter offense would have gator fans in a state of euphoria.

    Fwiw, Matt Rhule is my #1. Doubt he would leave Nebraska that quickly, but I like him better than Kiffin.

    All you guys dogging Deion are being shortsighted. Boosters are often car guys. Deion can sell a used car to the best of 'em.

    When he hangs half a 100 or probably more on us I'll just be thinking, I want that for UF again.

    If we aren't going with a home run hire because of unavailability, i like Schottenheimer. SOS knows him well.

    You are not alone in that thinking. My wife is a lifelong Bucs fan, but the moment they picked up crabs, she boycotted and pulled for the Jags. Deion is a disgrace and would have many UF fans walking away. Thankfully, I don’t even S.S. is THAT incompetent. Close, but not quite.

    It also doesn’t matter because kids that sign ESD can portal out before the season ever starts.

    Er body can do that right now. That’s been the case for several years. We haven’t been able to play defense since Chauncey

    There’s always risk but the lower you go, the longer the odds get.

    Fair enough then, perhaps I got the wrong impression somewhere.

    My list in order:

    Lane Kiffin
    Urban Meyer (i know he is probably done coaching)
    Matt Rhule (very underrated)
    Chris Klieman (provided he finishes with 10 or more wins)

    My wildcard back up option is USF's coach Golesh. He played Bama close for most of the game. If he beats Miami and hits double digit wins (big Ifs I know) he might move to the top of my list. You are not supposed to play Bama close with USF's talent. That is some good coaching.

    Are there any up and coming 1AA coaches that we can give 30 million guaranteed?

    What about Bob Stoops? He always wanted this job and I think he was just coaching in the XFL. That man can flat out coach ball on both sides of the line of scrimmage.

    Not a bad list with the exception of Deion. Missing Fisch and Brohm.
