How the HELL do you do this PUBLICLY???

Whehhhhhhh..... Im just not sure of this AD. Doesnt seem to understand stealth and maintaining face. We arent Cowbell We arent ok w public shamings.

That’s assuming that the report is accurate, well-sourced and legit. He isn’t doing anything publicly, but the Franz Beards of the world are out there trying to get attention.

We need a prediction contest on posts in this thread. Over/under now is 10,000.

Makes you think people connected to UF want to get this out there possibly since everyone is on the Kelly isn't coming here now deal.

Maybe. Or maybe Franz Beard is trying to make himself look less idiotic. So many games get played in this.

The longer this goes on, the more I'm convinced Chip is a looney tune.

Regardless WHAT he decides, not sure I want him. Frost seems a lot more stable.

That article written about him when he was at philly suggested he may be on the spectrum as a high functioning autistic... like aspegers.

His behavior is of that suggestion.

Socially awkward, driven on a particular cause, specific on the tasks, etc....

Definitely a unique dude.

Now maybe the UF is moving on talk gets him to to a decision!

I'd take him cause I'm not sure Frost will come.

How many P5 schools withh 100+ yrs plaing ball, countless notable alums, huge bankroll, 8 conf titles, 3 nattys and 37 bowls are looking for a coach?

WTF is so difficult? In another reality they would be lining up at our door. I don’t get it.

Why is it we can never have anything nice?

Just once I would like to have a seamless transition to a coach that delivers

I completely understand the frustration, but the problem is there are only so many "top/hot coaches available." So Kelly and Frost aren't interested in UF, then Stricklin and company are in a tough spot. Because after you get past Kelly/Frost, there would appear to be a huge drop off in the splash that hiring another coach will make. It doesn't help that UF's apparent attempt to hire Kelly became public knowledge and appears to have come up short.

Hopefully Stricklin can find a way to hire Frost, otherwise it's hard to see the fan base being 100% behind any potential hire.
