Damn it.
You tease

HAHA! Richt must love having Butch in his backyard!

Man can recruit, Macs job just became a little more difficult

This is a good hire for FIU by the way. I was just at the FAU game Saturday and they would love to have a coach of Davis' caliber/recruiting prowess. In the age of Trump, schools should be able to get away with hiring whoever the hell they want to - background be damned. Shame Trump didn't run in 2012, we might be looking at Petrino pacing the sidelines of the Swamp right now.

Its ok. We are used to losing players to directional schools. Houston Baptist is our new goto when looking for fluff to fill the roster when the 3 stars turn us down.

FIU lands a NC-winning coach?

 

[KronoGator]

No matter how good a recruiter Davis is I just don't see anyone with real talent going to FIU, more likely he gets them in trouble with the NCAA and moves on in a few years.

 

[GatorJ]

So we're stuck with Collins?

 

[TN G8tr]

Damn, hoping it might be Nussy.

Butch Davis is 64. Who else would hire him after a few years? Good hire for FIU though.

 

[T REX]

Who cares

Believe it or not but that's just another person Mac has to recruit against for all his three stars.

 

[gingerlover]

Will the NCAA be proactive and put them on probation tomorrow

 

[GatorTAG]

We'll be 4th in the state in 2 years.

Butch never won a NC. His players won the '01 NC with Larry Coker. But Butch did have a pretty epic academic scandal at UNC.

Next step is putting people in that erector set stadium.

Fiu should go ahead and self impose some sanctions for future violations. Just to go ahead and get it out of the way
