2014 College Football Chatter...

Per footballscoop Nebraska is pushing hard for Bielema.

That would be a perfect coach for them, but Bielema came out and said he is staying at Ark.

Yup. It has been said before though...

I expect Arkansas to make a jump next year. I think he has really built a solid foundation at that school.

I still think Scott Frost gets the job, but maybe they knew they could get him before they let go of Pelini.

No doubt. They have the potential to make an impact next year.

Weren't you the one that called them shitty like 2 weeks ago?

Scott Frost, their ex-QB? Uhh...okay.

Sad that a proud program is going that route. Sounds like an NFL team hiring their sucky QB as a head coach because it reminds them of the glory days. That is just so desperate and sad.

Wait...

Yeah, this year they where a shitty team. Doesn't mean I don't like the direction they are headed.

He is the Oregon OC, so he is rising.

Hard not to succeed as an OC when you take over that kind of machine. Does he at least call plays?

No idea...I'd guess not, but I don't know. I know the locals would be happy, but I know quite a few old timers are hoping Tressel ends up getting the job. Schiano is too much like Pelini...they want a friendlier face running the program.

@YahooForde: Y sources: Florida in latter stages of finalizing deal to make Jim McElwain next football coach

Geez, not exactly shooting for the moon.

 

[jsmith6919]

Sounds like Muschamp to Auburn is going to happen

Also we may get lucky and get rid of Spaz err Spav after all

I wonder what number they agreed on. UF isn't one to pay big money for buyouts and his previous number was $7.5M.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

A hire that I just don't see making much sense for a program of Florida's stature.

We'll see. I would be underwhelmed if I were a UF fan, but that's mostly cause they zeroed in on him so quickly. I would have expected them to go after bigger names first.

But he has Saban influences and he has Colorado St playing very well this year.

I would have expected a little more sustained success out of a coach for Florida. I mean the guy has basically had one good season under his belt. If Colorado State had 2 or 3 seasons like this one my tune may be a little different. But the guy had 1 good season in the MWC.

It's more than Muschamp and Zook had both accomplished by the time they got the job and it's not a lot less than Meyer had. He did it at 2 schools, but he never did it with his own recruits since he bolted from both Bowling Green and Utah so quickly.

But every stop Meyer had his teams were great. And they were great for both season's he was at both stops. The year before he got to Utah, they were terrible and then immediately they jumped to 10-2. Meyer was a guy with great schemes that could coach up talent. He wasn't necessarily a proven recruiter but at a school like Florida or Ohio State I don't know that it matters much.
