Couldn't NIL allow us to pay a retention bonus to guys who stay and wait for our new coach? Also, Maybe offer some of our top HS kids an extra signing bonus to sign on early signing day that allows them to bounce during the spring portal if they dont like the new coach. Just get these kids to wait for Spring window
Bum Phillips once said this about Don Shula: "He can take his'n and beat your'n and take your'n and beat his'n" THAT's the type of coach we need. Especially with a roster rebuild upcoming.
You just know the Big Boys (Kirby etc.) will be in their ear. It's going to be hard to combat that. I've just accepted it's going to be a crappy recruiting class this year. The only way it holds is if they get a splash hire, but I just don't trust this administration accomplish it.
His recent conference difficulties were a direct result of their rival who also had a championship coach and well paid roster. While I see him as highly unlikely to be our coach, I have no doubt he could right the ship at minimum. He also has had no difficulty in cherry picking athletes from the Southeast.
I think Jamey Chadwell would be a great hire at UF if Kiffin falls through. I’ve been more impressed with his offenses, than anything Billy Napier had at Louisiana. I know he’s not the big name UF fans would want, but I think he’s going to be a home run hire. He might end up at SC if Beamer is fired and I’d love to have him. Napier was fired at Clemson , because his offenses were just not that good.
Will be? The dirty LegHumpers have already started. Weeks ago. Probably others too but I know about that pile of dawg . . .
I think so. If he can do with USF athletes what Billy cant with UF athletes than he deserves a look ..but only if the big names decline.
Speaking of Ohio State, man, it’s really a shame we can’t convince Urban Meyer. To be clear, my guy is Lane Kiffin, but if we had a solid yes from Urban, we’d be tremendously stupid for not jumping all over that. Looking at Urban’s record at OSU…sick. And I know the Big 10 is not the SEC, but still, that shit’s elite.
Discussion question of the day: Will we someday look back and thank Billy for creating all the analyst and assistant coaching dollars for our next coach, like we thank Zooker for leaving a boatload of talent for Urban? Will that be the silver lining to his tenure?
Tell us we want to beat geor and get two backup tackles in the portal that can’t start at Florida or Kentucky . BS
I’d take kiffen though. Urbs may not have the fired anymore. Kiff clearly does but still has not shown any sign of being at a program a decade plus which is what we are looking for.
No. This has been one of the worst stretches for a UF coach in awhile. He deserves no credit. He suffers from analysis paralysis
We do have some talent to build around. He did do some good things. Our players have kept their nose clean and criminality has been low. I don’t hate the guy at all. He’s trying.
