There were some Florida fans with dreams of Steve Spurrier making a triumphant return to Gainesville, but Spurrier put those hopes to bed Monday, saying, "I've already had my run at Florida. They need to hire a coach that hopefully will be there for 10 years."
Then there was Bob Stoops, who has been mentioned as a possibility at Florida in previous coaching searches. Stoops once again made it clear Monday that he's not interested in the Florida job, or any other gig that isn't Oklahoma.
"All I want to be is a candidate at Oklahoma," said Stoops when asked about the Florida job. "I'm not a candidate anywhere else. I'm finished with that question."
While those two pulled themselves, ESPN.com's Brett McMurphy tweeted that Arizona's Rich Rodriguez and Mississippi State's Dan Mullen, two other names mentioned frequently, will not be among the coaches Florida considers to replace Muschamp.
So now four big names are removed from the list.

How far has Florida fallen that they cannot attract the big names like Stoops, Spurrier, Mullen or Rodriguez?
