not really
SC - no where near the talent. No where near the resources to get more. It's a much longer term build. And frankly they don't have as high a profile as we do (they've been more successful over the last few years than us, but get far less media attention)
Auburn - as much as their fans want it, they aren't likely firing Ellis. But if they do, I agree that will be one to watch
UCLA - Muschamp has zero ties to the west coast. Mora is a defensive coach, not offensive. They do have some young talent but the job has like 1/10th the profile of an SEC job (take a look at UCLA tv ratings if you don't believe me)
None of those teams have Myles Garrett either. And that may be the single biggest selling point. If you want to look like a genius, the first step is having a once in a generation player to work with

I agree on Auburn, I dunno about the other two. I know he has a good relationship with Spurrier but I think we are built to win big right now with the right DC and a little bit of experience for our young players on D (both already here and recruits on the way in). I'm not sure they offer the same opportunity. I also think we can offer more money
I don't see UCLA being a good fit. He recruits the south well and despite them taking every damn LB I've ever wanted us to get, their base is still out there. Ditto on the money.
I honestly don't know how hot Johnson's seat is at Auburn, though the fans I talked to there were pretty unhappy, that was in the heat of the moment. That would obviously be a great fit and a familiar place
