Wait till Florida finds out he doesn't call his own plays, they'll have to cut his salary by a few mil

Kiffin will be wildly successful at Florida.  What he’s done at Ole Miss with a fraction of the talent and resources he would have at Florida is already historical (by Ole Miss standards).

Kiffin has an offensive system that scales.  His current QB is a D2 transfer that arrived at Ole Miss in June to back-up Austin Simmons…and Ole Miss’ offense doesn’t skip a beat.  

I don’t think Kiffin enjoys recruiting much, but he knows to hire assistants who do.  In the state of Florida, he’ll have an in-state advantage in the most talent-rich recruiting state in the country.  As long as Florida competes in the NIL space, Kiffin’s rosters will be as talented as any in the country.  And if you’re an offensive player, you’ve already got proof of concept that Kiffin’s system scores big points against the top teams in the SEC.

This is as close to a no-brainer for success as Florida can possibly have.  Now, let’s hope they can screw it up 😂

 

 

While the talent is much deeper in Florida, the resources are likely the same between Florida and Ole Miss at this point. Florida's NIL is probably worse right now than Ole Miss.

Let's say Kiffin takes the job, what is the level of concern that it will impact any of our Florida commits/targets for 2026?

It won't affect anything in the '26 class. But beyond that, it probably would.

If Kiffin turns the job down, would UF make a run at Jedd Fisch?

I wonder what Ole Miss would do if Kiffin left.

 

And where else would Florida go if he says no?

 

What about Elko in Gainesville?

Didn’t he have the best portal class in cfb last year? Not like he’s winning with scrubs.

Conventional wisdom was he underachieved last year.
