John L Smith...it can't be any worse than this year I thought.
Than you brought him into the convo LOL.
So just what I am hearing..it's all "sources" at this point because the UAA is silent as freak.
Kelly and UF have agreed to facility upgrades and the assistant coaches are "vetted" (note during the OSU game they did mention at the end Day may be coming to Florida if Kelly comes, sure Craig heard it as well so the big networks have word of all of it as well).
Heard the DC want is the LB coach at Alabama. I was honestly hoping for CHizik but the Bama guy is apparently a stud recruiter.
We shall see. I was sure of Friday because contract negotiations leaked Tuesday. Didn't think it would be this complex. I think the major issue is the UAA is a power animal at UF. Kelly has all the power in these negotations because he can get any college job he wants most likely when it's available. Luckily UF is the best job open and will be this offseason unless Meyer. Saban. or Herman decide to ditch town suddenly(FSU is even so Fisher as well). So we at least have the best chance to win big to our favor.
I'm pretty freaking excited. Also let's point out Chip actually can recruit. He had three straight top fifteen classes, which was never done at Oregon before. I think their average class was around 25-30 typically and was that way when he left till Tagg. So not really concerned about his ability to recruit, but his want. If he brings in the cords they expect they both are strong recruiters at least.
