McElwain barely edges out Butch Jones for the honor

Florida might be making a play for Gruden considering the $10 million T supposedly has put on the table. Stoops being the other longshot. Mike Norvell would be who I bet on.

If you're going to offer someone $10 mil a year, I'd at least check with Saban or Urban. That's a ton to invest in a guy who hasn't been a college head coach and who hasn't coached in general in like 10 years.

I'm pretty sure the school is going to fire for cause not to pay out the buyout due to the threats that were not reported

After a third straight loss and a strange week that saw the school publicly distance itself from his allegations about death threats, Florida head coach Jim McElwain has been fired, according to a report citing unnamed sources from FootballScoop.com. The university has yet to announce the decision but Robbie Andreu of The Gainesville Sun reports that the players have been informed.
It quotes the same story you did, though the second part (Andreu) looks more legit.

up yours cornhugger.. I called DIBS


Hmmmm, bidding war for Frost it seems.

Sounds like the bidders will be

1. Florida
2. Tennessee
3. Texas A&M
4. UCLA
5. Nebraska

Not sure if North Carolina is going to play the game or not.

Florida is a recruiting hotbed.
Texas is a recruiting hotbed.
California is a recruiting hotbed.
Tennessee is in the SEC and is a blueblood and is close to Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina.
Nebraska is where Scott Frost's Mom lives.

Scott Frost also seems to have a good eye for assistant coaches.

Congrats to Scott Frost on making a lot of money.

So if he lied about the threats, he did say that was not him with the shark on the boat. Hmmm
