    It's not news.

    Florida is merely posturing to put themselves in a position to say "we gave CK an ultimatum" just in case UF gets left at the alter come Sunday.

    Then the question is the UAA willing to come off the money to make up whatever was in the SF deal. I am still not buying that there is anything to the SF stuff. I lean toward this is out of respect for Randy to hold off.....the part that makes me thing there is something to the SF stuff is how much info is getting out that there is no deal reached.....SS control of information.

    I will give it until close of business on Monday. If nothing else, by then we deserve a clear explanation of what the hell is going on.

    Hey everyone, just wanted to share that I had been very nervous about the coaching search but now feel a sense of calm.

    The most important thing to me was that we went after the personally who was obviously the best candidate. That gives me tremendous confidence in Scott because Foley would have most likely immediately gone to the bargain bin.

    It tells me that our AD is aggressive and wants this program to be great...which bodes well for the future, no matter who we get as coach.

    A few other thoughts:
    • Kelly would be an idiot to go to UCLA unless he really just wants to live in LA (which does not seem to be the case based on his current residence). He has a much better chance of winning big at UF and pulling in top 5 classes
    • That said, if that is his choice so be it. Then he wasn't meant for the SEC and it wouldn't have worked out.
    • Loving how Scott has gone about this (he could have trolled us a little less unless it turns out he already has his man, but that's fine)
    • I do believe Chip is coming to UF though. I believe Buddy Martin, Franz, and UAA guy's son, etc. Also, I haven't really seen any reports of Chip going to UCLA or UCLA to him so not ready to worry yet

    Fair enough. My personal timeline is the SEC Championship but post FSU game is absolutely fair.

    They only want FWB. Good beginning but that ain’t all I want. Plus I ain’t paying for a dating service. No can do.

    I was thinking he would do the post game. After Squirrely Squirrel pulled the change of flight plan he has trolling down to an art and would do something like that

    Yeah, because that is the absolute end of our season. Even before the USCe loss I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that in the unlikely event that some cockamamie half-assed bowl gives us an invitation, we're not accepting it.

    So, even if there really is some clause in CK's SF buyout that says he forfeits money if he accepts a coaching job before the end of this season, for purposes of our team, that makes him eligible to sign on Sunday.

    Like I said before, if it doesn't happen by Monday then I think we're entitled to an explanation of why not. We've been pretty patient. For the most part.

    I'am doing 1) & 2) above, Thursday. Great opinions! What method of smoking? I have a Weber Smoking Bullet with either a wet pan (225F) or dry aluminum lined pan (325F). About a 6-8 hour cooking difference is why I ask.
