Post the obvious choice for the Florida Job.

hmm I remember a lot of talk about him for the job at that time

Husker nation was wanting to give him the green light, but our AD made the call all by himself for the "Nice Guy" he hired a personality rather than a coach based of the previous "Personality"

well probably also on resume. Riley has had some level of success while Frost had never been a head coach

that was part of the sticking point at the time, but now... he has proven enough to many in Husker Nation... majority calling for MR's head are for Frost.. you have some who are looking for a more "proven" commodity but more because they are afraid of the unknown of Frost rather than lack of respect, and because of past coaches a good chunk are reluctant to take a "chance" on someone

Nope.

I think you were reading too many OD scenario village posts.

Not to mention I wonder if a lot of old school neb fans don't want the face paced offense

Frost has proven he isnt just a diciple of ol CK though, he has elements of it but he has many tools in his tool box and has shown it now that he has been HC at UCF for a year and 2/3's

I bet this Buc smoker is ready to coach

FIFY

Gonna have to be someone with some ballzzz with the ol' Ball Corch hanging around...and some serious offense.

Former Florida coach Steve Spurrier says Jim McElwain's offense was 'so bad'

 

[JuiceTheGator]

Meh...

The Monday After: Florida needs to go after Dan Mullen this time around

 

[DHoey]

 

[JuiceTheGator]

Matt Campbell is not UF caliber, yet. But he sure has been turning ISU around. However, if he's related to Tom Petty's lead guitarist Mike Campbell, he's in.

Who's next? 12+ candidates to replace Florida Gators football coach Jim McElwain

 

[JuiceTheGator]

Corch is right. HC isn't a corching job, it's a management job. You have to hire and manage a good OC...unlike the lochNuss monster.

Steve Spurrier: Florida ‘doesn’t necessarily’ need an offensive-minded coach

 

[TexasExes98]

I think Strong is done coaching at schools who play in tough conferences and where there are high expectations and pressure to win nattys. USF is perfect for him......

[lilchi721]

Dan Mullen would be perfect for Florida since he knows QBs but how much money is Mississippi St. gonna raise to keep him in Starkville.

Nebraska dropping the ball not getting rid of Riley ASAP

 

[KnightAndDay]

The meltdown from Husker fans would be fucking hilarious if some other school swoops in & steals him away.

We shall see.

I expected Florida to throw everything but the kitchen sink at him. It's a good job.
If UCF makes it to the AAC CCG, I doubt Frost commits to anything prior to December 3rd. Florida can talk to his agent all they want, but right now they are just a distraction to Frost, his immediate goals, and his obligations. I'd be amazed if something leaked that he'd taken the job before regular season's end. If anything Florida needs to be careful not to sour him by being a gnat.
