Y Sources: Colorado State coach Jim McElwain emerging as a leading candidate at Florida. LINK



quote:

Colorado State coach Jim McElwain has emerged as a leading candidate for the Florida vacancy, multiple sources told Yahoo Sports Sunday.

Information has been gathered on McElwain by Florida officials since the school announced two weeks ago that Will Muschamp would not return as coach, sources said. It is unclear how many other candidates may be involved. Sources said Mississippi coach Hugh Freeze was among those on Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley's radar, but McElwain's name may be at the top of the list.

You guys can't go wrong with the Saban coaching tree.

Would be a good hire to get the hot coordinator after acquiring actual head coaching experience.

He's a nice man, but the Bama offense was nothing to get excited about under his tutelage. I know Col State has improved tremendously with him at the helm, but does it rate the UF job?

2012 Colorado State 4–8 3–5 T–6th
2013 Colorado State 8–6 5–3 3rd (Mountain) W New Mexico
2014 Colorado State 10–2 6–2 T–2nd (Mountain)

He turned that program around with a quickness relatively quickly, it makes sense for him to be an option..

Between paying off the remaining balance of Muschamp's contract and McElwain's buyout, would UF be fine with paying $13.5M before they issue McElwain's first paycheck?

Saban assistants are fool's gold, just ask Derek Dooley, Sal Sunseri and many others. Any street bum would look like a coaching genius under Saban.

I think McElwain has what it takes to be a great coach.
