    The funny part is that some posters said there wasn't any correlation between the two when he was fired.

    $8M for the UCF coach is way too much

    We were had by CK. He played us against UCLA to extract as much as he could from UCLA because he was never coming to UF.

    He can return. But if his personal goal is to win championships thats never going to happen at NE again. They sealed their fate when they moved to the BIG 10.

    Eh, sounds like the UCLA deal was better. They are rumored to have offered more control.

    We can’t expect coaches to pick FL based upon name value when we give inferior offers

    I disagree.

    I think he was keeping us warm and then bottled it big time for a softer gig.

    Good for him. Him and his agent did what they were supposed to do and he will probably get everything he wanted

    That is what you call leverage.

    Hopefully the UAA can at least write off the mileage from the flight to NH.

    I think he definitely played us but I don't think "he was never coming" is accurate. He has a history of being extremely wishy-washy on these types of decisions.

    Welp..SS overexposed himself then..cause anyone coming in after the CK deal is going to want the deal that was presented to him. We are about to really overpay for unproven talent.

    As a loss? Yup, let's see the IRS try and argue that one.

    And just yesterday it was widely reported that UF and UCLA tired of his game and moved on.

    Is that a signing bonus or his bag money for recruits?
