I would keep my focus on that group if I was you all.

I'll really be focused if it's Kelly or Frost

If Kelly comes to Florida, it's game over.

I could see him doing it because I think he wants to coach in the NFL again, and building a solid foundation at a premier school like Florida might be just the place to do it.

Honestly, i think hes done in the NFL. The rosters and millionaire entitlement keep his scheme from being what its built to be.

The sooner he embraces what he’s meant to be ala Saban, the better off he’ll be.

I personally think he is, but I also think he wants another bite at the apple. I think he could make comparable money at Florida and before Reel says it:

He hates recruiting because he's from fricking Oregon.

This calls back to Nebraska vs. Florida, too.

Can you imagine talking to some kid:

Hey, come out to Eugene/Lincoln, it's got a great college atmosphere! In comparison to fricking USC, UCLA, CAL, Wshington (surprisingly better than one might think), STANFORD HOLY frick.

Do you have any idea how hard it would be to recruit at a school like Oregon? What draw do you have? Same with Nebraska. I guess at Nebraska you have history, but what kid wants to be a ''Cornhusker''? A Duck?

Chip will be a good fit at Florida because he can pull local talent easily, and his only competition will be Miami at this point (but they'll come back down to Earth in a few weeks).

Frost Q$A

One of the things that drew me to the job is I knew I could run a version of our offense that was practically identical to Oregon's because we can recruit that type of player here. I don't think you could run Oregon's offense at Wisconsin; I don't know if you would get enough guys that can run well enough to do it. In Orlando, Florida, there's fast guys in high schools in every direction in close proximity that are already running systems in high school that are similar to this and should want to play in it."

That's also one of the reasons I feel like we can keep Frost in Florida. Recruiting at Nebraska has to be fricking awful.

Again, who wants to be a Cornhusker and go out to Lincoln where there's absolutely nothing? Including Frost, he went out of state and only returned when the team didn't play him at the position he wanted to play out at Stanford.

It'd be easier on his life and wife if he stayed in Florida.

Goddamn, if we score Frost we'll be right back on track in one year. Back to competing for the SEC by year two, easy.

If he chooses Nebraska over us, though, I'd be more than just a little depressed.

But we know it's going to happen. We know that we have the most offensive talent we've had since 2009. Easily. Even with the injuries we were doing decent, not downright awful until the last few weeks when McElwain mailed it in.

We know that the next coach is going to come in motivated and is probably going to end up giving a good ol' Earthquake to the SEC.

Baby coming??

I'm guessing it's Gruden, I can't see Chip going to Tennessee -- his anti-recruiting angle would be there right now. They recruit decently, but it's a lot of jostling with other SEC schools.

Im not sure, that was just my first thought to his absence
