    wouldn’t be surprised if they went after Brent Key & James Franklin also.

    Thinks Kiffin would be a nightmare at Florida - he’s a younger Steve Spurrier imo.

    I could totally see Kiffin going there. He will go where the money is. I think it would be a matter of if Ole Miss would match UFs offer and I'm just not sure they can. I "almost" see this as a lateral move though. Kiffin has made Ole Miss into a formidable program. Especially in this NIL era.

    The teams that don't win are the ones always changing coaches, I think UF can and will do worse.

    I don't see Franklin even being considered. JMO

    Florida is the new Tennessee. Four coaches in ten years? UF AD and Prez just need to look in the mirror at the real problem.

    Franklin might be perfect for fla AND Georgia fans. His record completely shows his team crumbles vs ranked teams.

    Kiffin and Florida truly deserve each other. UF will spend a billion trying to buy a natty while Kiffin will desert them at midnight for his next scam job. Franklin is too classy for the blue jean shorts crowd. UF is too arrogant to land a real coach with character like Franklin while Key would not desert his alma mater Yellow Jackets. GT can afford to keep him too.

    UF should hire the Vandy coach…

    Franklin to Florida

    The writing was on the wall for Napier. Guess uf decided it was best to cut him loose now, instead of waiting a few more weeks. Sad news really, I was hoping they'd keep him around for a long time..and lose to the DAWGS every year lol

    I'm thinking Bobby Patrino would fit in well at the University of West Gainesville.

    Go, Dawgs!

    it was rumored, win or lose this weekend, Florida was going to fire Napier.
