I have my doubts that he will choose the good guys but at the end of the day if he chooses UCLA it wasn't meant to be. I want a coach that is all in with UF and that will put his blood, sweat, and tears into Gator Nation.

I want him to work as hard or harder than I do researching and reading rumors about the next UF coach on gatorchatter.

Same guy mentions how LA media have been quiet on CK because reporters are told to quiet down days leading up to a big news story (coaching hire)....

Well UF reporters have been extremely quiet which obviously means he is ours

I still think the UCLA talk is more agent related than anything else, but I could be wrong. And all the "he hates recruiting" talk should work in our favor as well.

Everyone in the Admin at UF could have went and it wouldnt matter if you go full retard and you sign a deal that allows him to back out if he wants to.

UF signing a contract with a such a clause would be so flat out stupid that I don't believe it happened.

Mainly because of a couple things:

1. We approached first
2. I’ve heard we’ve offered significantly more than UCLA.
3. We are a Nike school and he is already deeply intertwined with Nike. UCLA is an under armor school.
4. They have had a contract from us for several days. I don’t believe they’ve been offered a contract from anybody else yet.
5. Better recruiting base in Florida. And a much smaller area to recruit. Even in California he will have to fly everywhere.

Also 13.3% state income tax and ridiculously high cost of living in LA.

Reading some of these sports writers talk about it and they really don’t want him to come here.
