They're desperate. Phil is getting old and wants to see a national title before he dies. He put a lot into this. They've slipped in the North and are now going against what had been so instrumental in their success and their program DNA, which was always to maintain continuity with assistants for a long time. Now it's turned into throwing around money to make name hires to cobble together. Hard to make that work when the HC isn't a Saban type and there's no doubt who is boss. What I saw in the bowl game with Leavitt involving himself in QB coaching on the sideline tells me that Cristobal doesn't have that sort of gravitas with his staff.Oregon staff currently at over $5 million without the 10th assistant being hired yet. That is absolutely crazy. Obviously having Cristobal at a lower number helps but that is crazy and puts them in the top 5 or 10 in the country.
Schiano to the Patriots as DC. Grinch will become the DC for tOSU but they have to essentially hire a 10th assistant now.
Makes a lot more sense that Grinch took the tOSU job now. Must have been in the works but nothing with Schiano to the Pats could be announced until teams could actually talk about the Pats' DC taking the HC job with the Lions and the dominos from that.Schiano to the Patriots as DC.

I was shocked when he didn't jump from Miss State when Dak graduated. I thought that losing a QB like that at a place like MSU was going to be a career killer to stay there. But when they didn't tank the next 2 years I knew he was a hell of a coach. Really good coaches seem to want to work for him, too. He's had guys like Geoff Collins and Manny Diaz on his staffs, among others.Still early but Mullen looks like a home run for Florida.
going to be better next yrStill early but Mullen looks like a home run for Florida.
They won’t win division in next three years.Told my gf during the game yesterday that florida will be in the Playoff in the next 3 years
They can compete with Georgia over the long term.They won’t win division in next three years.

Need to catch up first. Gap is substantial.They can compete with Georgia over the long term.
True. To suggest something is going on at Florida that resembles Bama is just not true.2011 and 2017 Alabama didn’t win their division either.

I like Mullen a lot. Did a great job.
When he thumps UGA a time or two, i’ll take note.
Stack the talent. It ain’t happening in the next three years as postulated by OP.Auburn has beaten Bama and won the division twice under Malzahn, but Florida has no shot against Georgia? Sure thing.
