Yup..Florida should always be a Top 5 recruiting year in & year out just based on instate recruiting(not including cherry picking out of state talent)..
Mentioned I had seen Cutcliffe mentioned on Twitter a few days ago. He'd be solid but I bet he's not enough of a "splash" hire for them.
At this point you would think they would quit worrying about splash hires and just want a good coach.
Cutcliffe is on record saying he had zero desire to work at a 'high pressure' job again.
I think David Cutcliffe is totally happy at Duke. He has had a good bit of medical issues in the last few years and he just doesn't need the stress. The Tennessee fan base is not behind him either.
They don't need a splash hire ...they need a proven college coach...and Cutcliffe fits that bill....waaaaay more than Gruden
I think there’s a good chance Cutcliffe would like to take the job. Remember Urban saying he was out of coaching? CDC makes $1.7 million at Duke. Vols could more than double that and the man has a history at Tennessee. It’d be a good fit. I’m sure Vol fans would love to take Tee Martin from USC too.
I honestly think Cutcliffe isn't worried about the cash - he;s worried about his health. There's virtually no pressure at Duke - the same cannot be said at tennessee...
Yeah, you may be right but coaches get feeling better and want to take another shot. They’re like boxers who don’t know when to quit.
What they need vs what they want or what we want for them. Someone posted recently major stadium renovations underway for them, I was thinking that if it's an option they would lean toward splash to boost the dollars.
I don't see a groundswell for Martin on their boards. When he's suggested, there must be ten poster with "no way" responses. I don't know the back story on it...
I could take a crew with paint brushes and resize those seats to modern butts in a weekend and improve it 100%. Of course, it'd seat only 85K or so...
And while they're at it, they could remove that ugly orange "T," and that ugly orange and white end zone, and that....I could take a crew with paint brushes and resize those seats to modern butts in a weekend and improve it 100%. Of course, it'd seat only 85K or so...
He is also 63 years old. I don’t see him as a serious candidate even if he is interested.
He has never been a head coach, so he has no real record to judge him on. It wouldn’t be a splashy hire as the average person probably doesn’t know who he is beyond “QB after Peyton who won a national title”.
Yeah and paint the entire end zones. It’s so stupid how they have the paint a yard from the goal line.
I think they have to do it that way or else the white squares of the checkerboard would blend into the goal line/side line/end line. Probably rule based issue if I was guessing. Don't know about the NCAA, but I've seen this quoted as the NFL rule:
