I'm sure most have kept up with the static from F$U and the Stoops saga. Seems the latest is that they are in negotiations and expect to announce a big $ deal next week. I'll continue to wait and see, but what do you think the effect on college football in the state of Florida and specifically to UF would be if this somehow panned out?
At first, He’d be a “market disruptor” for sure. He’s got his connections to ‘crootin down here, and has more rings than all coaches in Fla combined.

I just see it as a stale retread. I don’t see him bringing passion to a broken program. Also, once Big Game Bob chokes one away, his recruiting prowess will fade.

He will have a temporary impact, but will fade quickly. Done in about 5 years with a .700 winning record.

I was talking with somebody connected with the program yesterday. They told me that they’re definitely in discussion with Stoops.

We’ll see.

I still just don’t see it happening. I have a hard time believing that Bob Stoops, who’s been out of college football for a few years, is wanting to take on a significant rebuild project at F$U. Maybe it’s the Gator in me that has a hard time picturing him over there coaching Clowntown, I dunno, but I don’t think he needs the money or has that big of an ego to feel he needs to “prove himself” again.
I doubt it's going to happen as well, but not needing money has nothing to do with wanting more money ,and if they could somehow offer him a deal similar to Dumbo's at aTm, that a lot of enticement for anyone.

This guy’s available. The negotiations may be cold and stiff.

That's from 'Weekend at Bobby Bowden's', right?

The two guys driving the delivery truck (Miamuh fans) dropping off my flooring from Home Depot said they are now in 'contract negotiations' with Deion. Book it...:harvey2:

One of my all time favorite John Wayne movies. My favorite scene is near the beginning when he (and his dog) disrupt the hanging of sheep farmer.
"...If you try and follow them, I'll hunt you down and kill you. Every mother's son of you!"

One of mine, too :)

He is just getting a negotiating a bigger retirement contract from Oklahoma.
