OT: UF and NU coaching searches
Gator fans believe that Chip Kelly is signed, sealed, and picking out drapes for his office at UF. Of course there's been no hint of this anyplace else. As we know so well however, coaching dreams can come true.

Some Bleacher Report guy says Frost and NU are close to a 7year $35mil deal. (The link is not to Bleacher Report. I wouldn't do that to you, dear reader.)

With the number of high profile head coaching positions that will be open by season's end, it will be interesting to see who ends up where. The only certainty seems to be that there will be some huge salaries paid out.

Nebraska's historic identity has been as a power running team and you'd think Bielema could get that done, but his conference record at Arkansas is a craptastic RR-like 11-27. Unless he takes a job at a non-Power 5 school, I think Bert's looking at a few seasons as a DC before he gets another major HC job.

Jesus coming down from Heaven and putting on a headset for Arkansas seems like a more plausible option. Auburn is an all around better job with far better access to talent.

What would you call that? Obviously not a horizontal move. I guess you could say a vertical move but going the wrong way.

Gonna leave Tennessee scrambling for a "name" hire.

there will be no XM prowling the sidelines for either school. you heard it here first.

so my guess is that not too far from wherever it is that the huskers play there is some pretty serious deer hunting.
no, my calling is to stay up north and torment my family. i am dedicated to this proposition.

Don't be surprised if Matt Campbell lands a big step up—I could see the Vols going that route. Campbell might not be a "name" hire, but he's one of the hot names right now, similar to what Fleck was in his last season at WMU.

"He'll come cheap" isn't an argument a big-time football program should be advancing.
It's possible that there will be no good outside options and keeping Hoke as a quasi-interim coach through 2018 (like Minnesota did with Tracy Claeys after Kill resigned) might not be a bad idea, but making him the permanent hire right now would be a tough sell to the fanbase.

I just hope someone hires Kevin Wilson away from OSU. He's actually turned OSU into a pretty good passing outfit, despite having to work with Barrett, to go along with their already great running game. I'd really like to see OSU go back to being a mostly one dimensional offense.
He might not get another Power 5 gig right away but maybe UCF will go after him when Frost leaves for greener ($$$) pastures.

Yes, Frost would be good in that regard. I find myself feeling sorry for Nebraska fans. They don't want my sympathy.

outside of MGoBlog thought Harbaugh was going to end up at Michigan at the end of November/beginning of December of 2014. I wouldn't be shocked if those two ended up at those places.
