    Why's that? Macs gone. That's one open coaching spot available.

    It was open until Randy brought up an analyst.

    Shannon said Monday that Chris Rumph has been promoted to defensive coordinator for the remainder of the season and analyst Robb Akey will coach the defensive line.

    Randy moved Robb Akey to a full time assistant coach position from his analysis spot. If Chip does come in next week, he can tell Nuss to hit the road and take his spot for the Semi game. Tell Nord to take a hike also, he's nothing but dead wood anyway!

    There’s some rule I don’t remember the specifics but it’s basically your on field coaches and recruiting coaches don’t have to be the same. Urban took advantage of this when he started at osu,
    Fickel and the interim staff coached The players while urban and who ever else he had hired were able to be on the road recruiting.

    And in All seriousness ESPN is not the sure fire money /ATM machine that is used to be for these ex coaches. I believe ESPN announced yesterday or today they were going to lay off more employees......

    Don’t see it ...Finebaum spoke to Kelly directly and said basically it wasn’t on Chips radar

    That coupled w Spurrier comments

    It’s Frost , Strong , Norvell or Mullen

    Mine too. But as @BenTrillGriffin said above...this thing is getting legs. I am only posting what others say at this point...but some familiar tone to what Ben said above.

    I would prefer Frost. I guess the only thing we can do is play the waiting game.

    Strong won’t be the UF head coach. He failed at TExas

    Tell Washington Redskins fans how great Spurrier was and you may get an argument.....

    See how this point doesn't really translate to College?

    As for Kelly's NCAA issues - simple. We stick athletic department observers in the football program for the first couple years. With that said, I dont think there will be a repeat of the previous instance since a second violation would mean a permanent ban from College coaching
