Exactly. I expect it to be public within minutes of telling his team

It's been a long time since I've seen you so excited. It looks good on you.

[QUOTE='78;n122419]I'd at least like the guy to submit a resume. [/QUOTE]
Yes, I thought you had to submit a resume to Foley if you wanted a job.

Apparently there is an exception for people who live in the Rockies or westward. Slackers out there probably can't type.

He cuts a lot of different images, some better than others.

@RobbieAndreu: One last thing from Walsh: Jim can bring back the success for the Gators that they experienced in the Spurrier era.

Yep. It has been done. He just wants to notify his team.

Yep. No way Foley makes a public appearance like this unless Mac has already accepted. And yeah, the right thing to do is to inform the players first. I mean this is what this is about - - the players. Not self indulgent message board denizens like myself. I'm all but dancing in my den following this. I feel great about this hire which is a 180 degree turn from how I felt on the day Champer was tagged as the next coach. My home felt like a funeral home that day. I feel like the day I found out Urbs was hired. On top of that Nebraska or maybe Michigan would have nabbed him if we hadn't swooped in. To quote a famous denizen of Seinfeld, "Giddy up!"

Glendale Community College tight end Evan Faunce was looking forward to visiting Colorado State in the near future.
"The TE coach says that the HC is taking the Florida job," Jay Faunce said. "Said they will talk to Evan about Florida when it's official."
Faunce also met with Texas San-Antonio head coach Larry Coker, Tuesday.
I sure hope we can steal a whole bunch of OL from UTSA also.

Sweet. We can be a fairly mediocre CUSA team soon.

Diamond in the rough. Maybe McElwain could bring him along. Couldn't be any worse than Westbrook.
I really hate that we've fallen to the "really can't be worse than Muschamp", "really can't be worse than Westbrook", "really can't be worse than Driskel", or "really can't be worse than Mary Moore " standard around here.

Don't know much about him but I'm optimistic.

One thing I like about this hire (assuming Foley closes this thing) is that he played for a really crappy team. There should be no dream job jumping unless he wanted to give the nfl a shot and coaching the Raiders usually squashes those aspirations

Would you prefer "at least he doesn't go by Jimbo?"
