If I were Jeremy Foley, I would hire...

So, it's more important to look good than win?

Saban and Miles have enjoyed winning this way for a long time with their superior talent.

Didn't Foley say the fans wanted an offensive minded coach? I don't think he had "Grind it out" football in mind. Of course wins are what look good, but I get the sense Florida fans would prefer the Fun and Gun.

Agree. He is the PERFECT fit at Arkansas. I doubt he's leaving. They are going to be hell to deal with next year and then beyond.

Fla is not about to hire a guy that lost his 1st 14 SEC games- I promise you that

UF isn't hiring a guy that runs a pro-style offense, either...

So they would rather hire a Big 12 coach that's having a bad season like Gundy?

its seems as though it's Chip Kelly or bust then.

Would you rather have Bielema or Freeze coaching your team? I think Bielema is twice the coach.

He's won 9+ games five of the last six years, the other being 8 wins. He's an OK State alum, so he may prefer to stay there, but if T. Boone is riding him hard he might listen.

One losing season (as is likely this year) in 9 years at OK State isn't bad. Oklahoma, Texas and aTm get the cream of the crop out there and now TCU and Baylor are probably getting a few guys that would have gone to OK State.

That said, I'd go after Stoops first, then look at Gundy and Jim McElwain.

What about David Cutcliffe???

Bielema is 1-13 as an SEC coach. He has no chance

Your are likely correct, but that's short sighted IMO and truly a conducive process to finding the best coach.

I agree, but am predicting Stoops from Oklahoma.

I don't think they were terribly impressed with their new OC this year who was mentored and groomed by Coach Cutcliffe.

Prolly Gundy
