If so LSU would still be a better program than UF
I disagree with this. Florida is the second best program in the nation imo. I think when UF calls, coaches will listen. Of course they couldn't pull Saban from Bama, Strong from Texas, or Sark from USC, but I think anyone else Florida would have a shot at getting. LSU may have a better team than Florida right now, but Florida is the better program. And it is not even close

Beat USC and FSU, lose the rest, and we are all happy!

I meant in regard to team and/or product on the field. The advantage UF has though is being in the east which continues to be a shamble. I doubt Spurrier has many years left and eventually 10 win seasons will not be enough for the puppies and their fans.

From Sumlin's perspective, what makes Florida, right now, a better situation than A&M? Sumlin has a good team, stocked w/ practically three years' worth of his recruiting classes (I'm counting some of 2012 and 2015 is almost full). All his recruiting contacts, formed during a decade plus of coaching in the region between OU/Houston/A&M. With the Kyle renovations, A&M's facilities are as good as any in the country.
Sumlin also has a new contract that includes a $5M buyout for the next two years. He got that new contract after turning down Southern Cal last year. Honestly, I think you'd have a better chance at landing Charlie Strong if you pursued him. His history and ties are to the state of Florida, and UTx is just a shambles right now, and is in danger of being even worse next year. Unless Strong has some beef against UF, the Gators are a step up from UTx.
