Wow. Mike Norvell was the football coach from a large state university in Florida that I expected to be fired today. Hell of a time to be a college football fan in the Sunshine State.

Let me guess, they're eying Elko too.
Of course they will. If we were looking for a coach, we'd absolutely look at a young, under-paid SEC coach who is 7-0 and top 5 in his second year.

tu's Sark is the leading candidate for the job. I just read it on the internet.


JUST read this on the internet too! Trending news; Sark interested in any open position outside of Austin. Saban looking for a home in Round Rock!

So it has been confirmed on the internet that Sark is indeed looking at the open coaching opportunities.

Don't think Penn state would even take Kelly's call. They fired Franklin because he couldn't win the big games and Kelly is cut from the same cloth: 5-10 against ranked opponents while at LSU and never won it all while at ND with an easy schedule and lots of talent.

PSU is probably going to be amazed at how low they may have to go to get a deal done.

No obscene Jimbo style extension I am guessing.

Napier I can understand. Nice guy, good coach but not well suited for a program like UF. Would be a better fit at a mid level Big 12 school. I don't think UF would ever be more than mediocre with him at the helm.

gators really should go get Franklin. for all the big game losses he had, he did consistently win. that is what florida needs at this point, bring back the culture of winning.

It would be a great hire.

Who are the top candidates

Urban Meyer for Florida
I bet a lot of people reach out to Luke fickle when he is gone. He's a great coach, but has poor support.

Not a bad idea.

Urban is my dark horse candidate, but the front runner is Lane atm, they were obsessed with Jedd Fish (?) from UW last year so could be a name to watch

urban has burned too many bridges. he won't be a candidate anywhere.

I like fickell, but does not seem like the right fit there. and don't see the important money getting behind that hire.

Fisch was a GA under Spurrier and got his Master's degree there.

Funniest would be if Florida hired Jimbo. Then Jimbo had about a 10 game win streak against FSU.

Freeman is the dark horse to watch with Elko.

If a BIG or SEC program lures Freeman away from ND, Elko will be mentioned more than all the current openings combined.


Elko left ND for a lateral position at A&M. Why would he do the opposite? He doesn't like the leprechauns.
