Churning through coaches who were better than the one they have today.Hopefully they are closer to 2009/10 Tennessee than 2019/20 Tennessee. They have already been churning through coaches for a while...they'll hit on one eventually. They have a chance to really start fresh (like we did) with a new President, new AD (probably), and new football HC (almost certainly).
Sources: If Billy Napier is dismissed, Florida will search for ‘premier and proven name’ from Power conference
Source tells SDS: 'We are in the Alabama '06/'07 mode. They made a commitment to hiring a proven winner. That's what the University of Florida will do.'www.saturdaydownsouth.com
If this is accurate, it will make their search very difficult. I am not sure a proven coach would bail on their current job to run to UF.
Urban Meyer already said he's not interested. I know he's had somewhat of a checkered past, but Major Applewhite's South Alabama team was impressive last nite demolishing Appy State.Sources: If Billy Napier is dismissed, Florida will search for ‘premier and proven name’ from Power conference

I could see Franklin making a move, he’s really hit his ceiling at PennStateSaw an article earlier this week, where writer was talking up Franklin as a candidate. If they go for Kiffin, he won't be available until sometime in January. Some much for their recruiting class and first round of portal transfers.
Interesting take. Josh Heupel came from UCF, then an AAC member, like USF is now and stepped into a dumpster fire at UT.I think Golesh needs a run at a smaller P4 school before hitting one of the big brands like UF. or it has to be the perfect situation he is walking into.
If Florida is able to keep Lagaway, maybe that's perfect, but I think it would still be a struggle and ugly. No two year turnaround for Golesh there I believe.
I was having a bourbon at the bar after a round at the Honors course last weekend. Ran into MIT_Beaver. Impressive how connected that guy is.
He told me Florida had put together a big enough package that they will be able to coax Saban out of retirement. Said it’s getting close to being done.
