Alleged Gators HC Short List

[Essex Cane]

Key would be a problem. How quickly things change. Fist pounding state champs to stuck within a schematic disadvantage

Isn't he a Ga Tech alum? Doubt it, he's building something nice at Tech with way less expectations than he'd have once he arrived at UF.

 

[RF-4CCane]

Unless Ole Miss gets knocked out of the playoff picture, why would Lane go to UF right now?
In his Narcissistic mind, he probably figures he can win the Natty and demand whatever he wants.

If they were smart they would throw a blank check at key but they'll probably end up with gundy lol

 

[nycane]

I think lane is prob choice #1

 

[The U is back to work]

I'd guess the same, but without knowing NIL, staff budgets (etc), I can't really say what he's looking for. I don't know what Ole Miss currently offers.

I assume Ole Miss settles with a bigger deal for him or more guarantees.

I don’t want Lane at UF. He’d be a problem in the portal and we do compete on players.

I like the idea of Gundy to the Crocs. But only if he’s sporting a serious mullet.

 

[88]

Pretty high floor list imo

 

[WeBallinBoyz]

Hopefully Lane’s daughter saying she'd never speak to her father again if he left Ole Miss while she was a student there is true.

Don't want him or Franklin in Gainesville. They can have Key or Drink all day long.

 

[3rd-43]

When do we play UF? I must have missed it.

This will be centered around recruiting but really great effort buddy!

 

[nvlahos]

If they land any of those guys they’ll be in a lot better shape as a program then they are now

 

[nvlahos]

Side note, would be good for the ACC if Franklin landed at VT

 

[Hold My Beer]

Key seems like a good coach. There's so much going on at CFB programs nowadays that it is hard to predict.

Key and Clark Lea would be on just about any school's A-List, and yet even heavyweight programs aren't sure they can pull either of those coaches from their alma maters.

Kind of refreshing

 

[TboneJones]

Key's secret sauce is his OC. If Key would leave, which I doubt, GA Tech would likely try to promote his OC. Key would flop at UF.

 

[Hold My Beer]

CFB is getting hilarious. I wonder which "big time progrum" completely buckles under the financial strain.

One outside The South (thank goodness)

Most of the schools in this part of the country would demolish their libraries and sell the vacant land before they'd pull the plug on their football programs

 

[JZCane0825]

Key isn't leaving GT just like Brohm isn't leaving Louisville

Well, Kiffin does seem very much the "grass is greener" type

 

[RozayCane]

Please, please hire GTs coach.. Mario can beat him

My #1 Outsider perspective is that promises re: NIL are largely illusory and subject to change.

So, if a HC knows he has a good deal where he's at, and boosters follow through, I don't think the HC is going to readily bolt to a program that won't demonstrate the same.

This principle can be applied to staff acquisition/retention as well, but I think that's an easier one for the program to promise the budget.

Eli is building something at Missouri he isn’t leaving there.

 

[Shooter McGavin]

Would USF coach be an option? He’d be perfect for Florida because he ******* up a storm every ****** game.
