Well other that Cutcliff he is number one on my list of coaches that would come to UF. Let's be reasonable, every other major conference team has as much money as they need today, so unless there is some special appeal of UF you get an up and coming coach like Urban. You pay somewhat less, spend more on assistants, and give performance bonus to make up the difference. I bet in the 3 mill range with bonus to get to 4 or even more if we are successful.

Perhaps he needs to tell his team first then come to Gainesville. I still think if Jeremy left and it was a NO it would already hit the wire. And Jeremy would be going to the next location.

Yes, I know he was a successful Offensive Coordinator for Alabama but Lane Kiffin is also a successful Offensive Coordinator for Alabama. Here's your problem. It took Jim McElwain three years to accomplish a decent winning record in the featherweight Mountain West Conference. How long will it take a neophyte head coach to build a winning program in the most powerful conference on the Planet, the SEC? .

Dude, the world is a better place these days. How is disagreeing with you that Freeze is an up and comer, whining? You basically said he was Ron Zook and I think that's pretty far out there. No worries...

Not as bad as Tennessee hiring butch Jones who made Cincinnati see a significant drop off when he took over and now has a very similar record to Dooley. Your not in the best position to talk trash about coaching seeing that everyone and their mother turned down the Tennessee job

@ZachAbolverdi: RT @MattStephens: CSU coaches have been left completely in the dark with this McElwain situation. They're not lying, they know nothing.

@MattStephens: Another charter flight will leave Fort Collins at 1:10 p.m. that's heading to Birmingham. Could be picking up McElwain's kids who attend UA

NOW WE ARE TALKING!!!! Seriously, he has to wrap up business with his team before making a presser here... He can't just get on a plane with Foley and leave them high and dry....

Sure they are just allowing JM to address his Team and Coaches. They aren't going to whisk him away without allowing him to tie up those loose ends. They'll head back and prepare tomorrow's presser.
