Your last title was in 2000..so very, very clearly you've stepped down...or do you think Yale and Princeton are top tier jobs now?
You clearly missed the entire point.
Go ahead and have a seat.

I figured Florida would be a great job. You can recruit from a talent-rich state, enjoy great weather year-round, and be the person who turns the program around. Anyone who brought them back to their winning ways would be revered.

Florida is an ok job, but it's not ND
You know what else ND has that Florida doesn't?
Snow. Lots and lots and lots of snow.
Different things appeal to different people. It is true that Florida isn't the blue blood that ND is. But it's still a high quality job. Who knows what motivates different coaches? If BK can go to LSU from ND, why can't Freeman go to Florida?

ND, Bama, OSU, Georgia, Tejas, maybe Michigan, LSU, Oklahoma. those are the prestigious jobs. Flawda is close but not to the top tier. I’d put them there with USC or Penn State or FSU.
I can’t stand UForfeit, but you’re nuts, first off only 5-8 schools as “prestigious” jobs… ok, but every single one of the Florida top three are top jobs. Marcus Freeman is just not worried about leaving his comfy job with auto bid to the playoffs to rebuild UForfeit… he’ll even dumbass loser BK took ND to the playoffs

Because he told them no? If he wanted to, I’m sure he would have. And like you said, different things motivate different people

Florida has two championships in that same time frame as LSU, Clemson, Ohio State and Georgia. Bama dwarfs them all but to say Florida has some huge advantage is not completely accurate.
You can blame their ADs/AAU whatever you want to. But that state competes with so many other OOS schools and in state schools that it’s really difficult to build a consistent winner there.

Only two legendary coaches were able to handle the job. It’s almost like the job isn’t that great.

Facts: LSU and Florida were both in the market 4 years ago. LSU hired a coach away from Notre Dame. Florida hired a coach away from UL-Lafayette. LSU beat Florida 3 out of 4 years.
Opinion: Florida is rushing offers out of fear that LSU might jump back in the market with them again.

but I'd take the Florida job just to get out of northern Indiana and the crappy winter weather.

This is just agents trying to get their guy, and themselves, more money.
