So throw away any chance at a bowl game, kill a really good recruiting class, and embarrass us on a national stage...to land Randy Shannon or Strong? Again, need to go Pol Pot in the UAA.
Look I agree with regard to cleaning out the ADs office, but it wasnt a good class. No DL, no LBs like always and big slow offensive guys who dont fit any of the option offenses we are looking at.

I wonder if this was all set up to get Frost. We go to Kelly to judge interest and find out if Frost is a good candidate. Kelly tells us he wants to get back into coaching and he knows UCLA job is opening so he makes a deal I'll talk to Frost and you help me leverage UCLA.......:what:

We aren't getting Frost he is going to Nebraska and his friends are already telling people not to worry he is coming back to Nebraska.

Strick seems to have gotten played badly. Welcome to big time program Strick. Don't fook this up moreso.
Oh, he is already fvkked twice. Just wait.

We went to Chip after Frost already showed us no interest. Perhaps that was our usual laughable lowball offer like 3.5 mill or something and we are coming back w more money this time.

I doubt it matters. We will likely be used to make sure Nebraska pays a lot for him.

Well if he wants the low pressure hind tit job, that’s his prerogative.
Exactly. I wouldn't be surprised if UF was to drive up the UCLA payout. I was looking forward to Kelly, but given his personality and ethics, I don't think he would have worked out here. You think Mac was difficult? Kelly might have just walked out in the August humidity and heat for another job. . It could have been one long term tantrum and threats of double cross with him all the time. There comes a point when the hot, but mean GF is not worth the advantages. I'm not totally upset if he signs with someone outside of the SEC, given how this has gone.

Edit
Would like to get Frost, which seems to be unlikely given the chatter about that. Yes, worried about who after that. Kelly is in 50s. I think winning the SEC is more than he wants to take on.

Lol. Espn basically laughing at us a minute ago. Basically said Chip took the easiest road. Now they think Frost is UNL as well.

We’re a crap show.

Frost's phone is blowing up. Crunch time all over again.

What a flipping rat race this has become.

Don't care what you say... we're Florida and our AD went 0-2 on the biggest names on the board. So will it be 3rd 4th or 5th pick. This officially blows! SS can hit the freaking road jack...

Love to be a fly on wall in the UAA offices right now. Has to be some serious consternation even if they feel confident of being able to woo Frost.

Well its really Norvell IMO. Frost I would be inclined to think that Nebraska is all for him. Better be thinking smart SS.
