So. What's your take on Sparkles going to Gainesville? What's the general reaction there?
:nod:
Awesome. BB is going to do some good things in Arky.
Foley is either a genius or he's going to lose his job to an angry mob with pitch forks.
fify.
Those two things aren't mutually exclusive, as your use of "or" would indicate.

I have a hard time believing a top 5 football program can't pay a $7.5 mil buyout, and I have an even harder time believing a MWC coach like McElwain would ever turn down a top 5 football program to remain at CSU.
I don't think it is a question of can they, but will they. $7.5 MM is a ridiculously high buyout. I doubt Foley wants to be known as the P5 AD who grabbed his ankles for CSU.
Props to CSU if they get that full amount. Biggest paid buyout in D1 history..... to get Sparkles :lol:
I honestly think the problem lies with CSU and it's lack of a director of athletics. That's who would normally be dealing with these kinds of negotiations. Without an AD at CSU, UF has to try to strike a deal with people who look at the contract and say "well, it says here that the buyout is $7.5MM, so I guess that's what you have to pay us". The UF people have to be pulling out their hair, thinking that they're dealing with a bunch of total amateurs. And in fact, that's exactly what they're dealing with.
yesterday?
It's a good question. Some of these coaching dominoes have to fall in the Pac 12 eventually. Rich Rod and Graham are the two most likely candidates.
Todd Graham is at his dream job. He would never lie about that. Sheesh
I don't think NU has much allure. It's gotten harder to recruit there now that there's actually rules that are occassionally enforced. They have no TV in Cali or Texas. They have no recruiting base anywhere close to home. Bo was using his Ohio and Louisiana connections the best he could. THey haven't been relevant in a decade....
Not a job many would want.

I am not sure Jack Graham would have handled it any differently if he were still there.
All this. No more partial qualifiers. Minimum GPAs. Limits of walkons. Less scholarships.
I'd say an insider like Frost is there best hope.

I'm beginning to think that some of the luster has tarnished at um, at least in terms of attracting coaches. The stories of Carr, DickRod, and HJoke have all ended in some amount of turmoil.
How many coaches will think twice before throwing their hats in the ring of Ann Arbor?
