See, that's the point. It doesn't make one GD bit of difference if they "did anything wrong". They are paid to get the job done. They targeted their guy, CK. There are only two options at that point, success (sign him) or failure (he goes elsewhere). All this "well, they gave it the old college try" bs is for losers.
If we don't hire Kelly, they did a lot wrong. Stricklin played his cute lil twitter game and if he gets his pants pulled down, if reflects on UF. He could have handled it much differently.

If one of my guys tells me “It’s 50/50”...then he lost the deal.

Ox, I hope your source is dead wrong, but I know he’s not some internet wonk making guesses.

Plan A - Kelly, Frost, or Mullen if they all say no

Plan B is Strong,,,

That was the tailgate talk in the parking lot before the game last week.

I am sure, like all of this, it is speculation.

Strong before Mullen.....MHO

Strong Checks most of the boxes.

Hey Chip let me offer you a 50/50 opportunity to coach the Florida Gators. You can either coach UF or anyone else but please sign the dotted line.

I realize that. But the point is after Frost and Kelly, then who? Settle for Mullen? Norvell?

I love Charley Strong and he is one of the few leftover coaches who wouldn't force me to just turn it off this time, but Itraz is slingin truth.

It's Kelly, Frost and then the field.

Without intimate knowledge of what they're thinking, I can almost assure you the UAA is thinking the same.

I think you're right. Kelly and Frost are the only home run hires out there. Anybody else and we've hit a double at best.

Kiffin has the energy, confidence and right age. But I do not think our uptight admin will ever go for him.
Kiffin is a 40 year old adolescent that is always a minute away from embarrassing the hell out of you. How many coaches do you know that were fired on the tarmac and left off the plane home? Al Davis? One night stand with the Vols? Gimme a fuggin break with the Kiffey BS.
