Oak?Who to FSU?

[coastratdog]

Any guesses

[Leroy Jenkins]

Might be an in state bidding war for Kiffin.

[parabrave]

Well this proves that the transfer portal is not the promised land for everyone

[viverlibre]

Might be an in state bidding war for Kiffin.

If I'm him, I'm only leaving for TOSU, Bama, UGA, Texas or the NFL.

[Leroy Jenkins]

UGA realty crushed these dudes' spirit. lol.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Damn, double post.

[Pancho]

Kiffin ain't leaving oxfart. his son will enroll next school year and be the QB at oxford high

[RockyDog]

You don?t think that he could enroll junior in Gainesville High or Tallahassee High just as easily? Come on.

Maybe but his kid can also go play QB in a Tallahassee or Gainesville HS...just kind of depends where Lame's head is these days. Stay at Mississippi for 10 years or go somewhere it's easier to win a Natty. Also remember Lame loves the state of Florida. Wont be surprised either way

He could change hi$ mind but I'm telling you the QB situation with his son has been arranged prior. He'll have to convince his kids to leave oxfart

Why would his college age daughter have to leave? She’s already at the University and can stay to finish her Mrs.

If LK is offered the Florida job he's taking it. The talent in that state is unreal. He knows that. He made UCF relevant by using FSU's and Florida's leftovers. UF is a goldmine with the right coach. Kffin is an elite coach. It pains me to say it but it's true. OM ain't winning a Natty. They'll be damn good but they ain't making the top four.

[Pancho]

either way it'll keep my bear/shart friends squirming

[StarkVegasSteve]

If Lane wants either of those jobs he'll get it. It's been widely reported that had Norvell went to Bama, they wanted Kiffin at FSU. I imagine if Florida wants Kiffin, they'll find the money.

[MStateDawg]

Norvell isnt going anywhere:

Mike Norvell contract
Norvell agreed to a contract extension that runs through Dec. 31, 2031, and will pay him $11.05 million in the final year of his contract. Norvell had his contract extended with the Seminoles after he was a candidate for the Alabama football coaching position following Saban's retirement.

LOL!!

[viverlibre]

Lame at FSU seems like the perfect fit, talent galore and an easier path to the playoffs. I don't think it i will happen though.

Lane loves South Florida. Gainesville to Boca Raton is close to 4.5 hours driving. Tallahassee more like 6.5. I'm assuming with the money he's making he's flying either way and not sure how much being an hour or hour and a half flight matters compared to a 2.5 hour flight from oxford. Probably a much bigger deal for the travel he has to do for recruiting I guess.

Not saying he won't go, just saying that I don't think living in Gainesville or Tallahassee is going to move the needle. The ability to win a championship, more NIL, and better recruiting grounds will move the needle. I think Miami would be the place that would really be attractive to him as far as location, but even though they have good NIL support, that's still a small private school in the ACC. Not sure you skip on the potential to have UF's resources in hopes that you can get Miami back to where it was.

[Coach34]

yeah Norvell went 12-1 last year. He is good a couple more years outside of a complete melt

I'm seeing high school kids transferring schools all the time.

Plus what would be better for his son? IMG or Oxford HS? No offense to Oxford because that's a pretty good team usually.

[StarkVegasSteve]

If he doesn't replace Uiagalelei then a complete melt is what he may have on his hands.

[Brobi-wan]

Wasn?t Kiffin offered the job at the U? Why take FSU and not Miami?

[Leroy Jenkins]

DJ U isn't the reason their OL and DL are getting pushed around.

He win 19 in a row until UGA smashed them. So, he has some good will.

I don't know when Miami supposedly offered Kiffin, but Miami is a small private school. Right now, Miami has a strong NIL, but a large alumni base that cares about football is a huge advantage in the NIL world. Miami is going to be highly dependent on a small number of passionate and rich alumni unless and until it kindles interest outside its alumni base like it did when it was the U.

They should just pay The Rock to do some marketing for them and show up at halftime. He could do WWE stunts on the 50 with the nerdy drum major while the dance team acts as ring girls for 20 mins.

You're 100% right, but no one ever blames the offensive line. They're going to place the blame at the feet of the QB who can't throw a 15 yd pass that makes 6 figures.

More than one thing can be true.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Again, I agree with you. They knew the limitations when they got Uiagalelei. However, for the 3rd time in 3 years, a fanbase fell for the facade that this kid is something more than a big body with a big arm. I think the line is more to blame because they need to be able to run the ball with his limitations. However, this is the downside of NIL. You're paying a kid 6 figures to be your QB. He needs to....you know.....be a QB.

Kiffin has free use of the university jet to take him to Boca whenever he wants.

When you?re the one making millions of dollars, you don?t have to convince the kids of sh!t.

[Pancho]

He's settled down now. He eats nutritiously and has given up booze and even discovered the Bible.

Is this is true that misuse of state funds and someone needs to get this to shad white ***

[TrapGame]

Visiting and living there are two different things. I'm sure UF will chopper him to his house in Boca and land in his backyard. That's an awful shorter flight than Oxford to Boca.
