They would succeed with all 3 of those, imo. With the money behind them and the recruiting ground in Florida and around them. Now it just depends if any of them want the job. 

Agreed. I think any of those three should do well

Bull Gators (richest alums) want Lane Kiffin 

Kiffin, Marcus Freeman and Eli Drinkwitz are mentioned most.

It should be 1. Freeman, 2a Drinkwitz and 2b Kiffin IMO

 

Has Kiffin won a championship anywhere he has coached. Kiffin is overrated.

I haven’t read the 5 pages, but what do we think about Will Stein for some of these HC gigs?

I think he will be up for discussion. Not for any top jobs though, imo. Plus I think he can afford to be pretty selective, as I don't think Lanning is going to move him on.

Marcus Freeman was No. 1 for the Gators per a couple of reports. He turned it down.

I almost wonder if Kelly would be a guy Penn State is interested in? That place seems more his speed than LSU. The question than becomes, who does LSU go after, if they go that route.

Hey according to the rumours, we could be joining the list, what a wild off-season that would be huh?😂

My guess is with the new NIL era and the amount of dollars getting thrown around these coaches leashes are about to get a lot shorter than they use to be, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see this sort of turnover on an annual basis.

Plus with the signing days and the portal window now, you need to get ahead of the curve with your hire.

Thanks. I was looking for this and couldn’t find it.  This is going to be wild and entertaining.

Is it a similar scenario to Venables where Kelly has to finish the regular season 8-4 to keep his job?  After this bye week, Kelly has to go to Bama, play at home against Arkansas and WKU (LOL) before finishing at OU.  Not sure they win any of those games besides WKU.
