Norvell took over as the HC of Memphis after Fuentes left. It’s only been a year and a half, but he’s done well in that short time. Pretty risky hire IMO.

This is the hire that scares me. He's still coaching Fuentes' players. I'm a Pete Prisco guy. I like his NFL work. Prisco is an ASU fan. He did nothing but complain about Norvell. He desperately wanted him fired and celebrated when he left.

Anybody but Chip Kelly is a roll of the dice. Even Kelly is to a certain degree....not sure his offense would work against a Saban defense, but with the right players I think it could. He is THE splash hire that would fire up the fan base, excite recruits, and erase the misery that has been this decade.

I understand that the next hire scares you and I appreciate your view. But I have seen Butters for 35 games and ZERO improvement week to week. So I can't believe I am saying this b/c I am a process and attention to detail guy, but at this point I will take the UNKNOWN over the known!!!!!

1. Steve Addazio

Sources tell The Read Optional Scott Frost is interested in the job. Some Florida power brokers have quietly lobbied for Frost behind the scenes, concerned that if they don’t strike early Frost will wind up taking the Nebraska job (his alma mater). Frost has yet to have discussions with any school. He will make his choice based on fit, not money, a source close to Frost told The Read Optional.

My personal feeling is that if they offer Frost the job, he will accept.
