According to a report by NoleGameday.com, the FSU athletic department is focused on Bob Stoops in their coaching search, with the former Oklahoma head coach actually making the trip to Tallahassee today to talk over a deal.


quote:

“A source tells NoleGameday that the athletic department has identified Bob Stoops as the top target in the coaching search,” the report said. “Sources close to the program have confirmed to NoleGameday that earlier reports of Bob Stoops being in Tallahassee are indeed correct. He arrived earlier this afternoon and has at the very least, been on Florida State’s campus today.


quote:

“This doesn’t necessarily confirm a deal is done but it’s definitely in the works,” the report continued. “The timeline of this thing is certainly fluid, but I’d expect it to be done sooner rather than later as long as all terms can be met.”


quote:

Alison Posey, the Sports Director for ABC 27 in Tallahassee, Florida, is also reporting that “a deal is imminent with Stoops as Florida State’s new coach.”


Little bro Mark might be stayin afterall
Would also be classic sibling rivalry for bob to steal his little brother's shot at a job like that
Of course, take it all with a grain of salt, Gruden was spotted on UT last go round iirc and Chip Kelly to Florida was a done deal at one point, so this report could be founded on sauces that are basin their stuff on BS

There was a guy last night on Sirius XM radio, that knows Bob Stoops well. Says he eats dinner with him about twice a month. Stated emphatically that Bob Stoops would not be getting back into coaching at any school.

Makes you wonder why he left OU...maybe the university forced him out so they wouldn’t lose Lincoln. Or he just has the itch to get back.

Oh I imagine the rumors are way ahead of where this process actually is. FSU hired a coaching search firm to help so, you gotta think they wouldn't blow money on that if it was a done deal already with Bob
Still, no coaching changes board so, gotta post it here, especially since its Stoops related

Upgrade but not for the 6 million per year they will pay him.

I don’t see Bob staying motivated enough to complete a rebuild at FSU. It would be a flashy name but a risky and expensive hire that is likely to yield mediocre results. See Fisher @ A&M.

Interesting.

Today, Paul Finebaum said there was "no way" Bob Stoops would agree to become FSU's HC.

Always thought that if you're gonna pay that buyout during the season, they have someone in the hip pocket.

They're relevant immediately if true.

Will spark a lot of excitement but like Richt at Miami I doubt it works. Cant see him getting that fire back like he once had. If he does though he will have them back quickly

I heard that. Finebaum told that caller, “that’s not happening” and basically laughed him off.
