Rumors out of Gainesville…
- Thread starter dawgstudent
- Start date
I think they are just waiting on the next loss. Might as well help them out and make it this week.
Plus it might help fuel some Kiffin to UF talk that could distract his current team.

No way they fire him just a couple of days before a game. Right?
I did like this though:

It’s only good for us. The more chaos down there the better.
And this is why you don’t “wait for the bye week” to fire a coach. These things get out and you can’t necessarily control the timeline. Stricklin really 17ed this up big time. You hate to see it.
If it doesn't cause the FL players to play out of their minds for Napier.
I'm hoping the TX game is where they made their stand & after A&M they've packed in it.
So if they're in complete don't give a damn mode and we win... does that cheapen the Dub?
Maybe but I'll take it..... kinda like a divorcee with three kids out at the bar one day post final.

What a kick in the nuts to the Colonel, if OM makes the playoffs and Lane bails prior.
We need this $h1t to ramp up today tomorrow and Friday!!
If true, I wonder how much the James Franklin firing has to do with this. Think about it.
I don’t see Kiffen going to Gainesville except for stupid stupid money. He knows there is dysfunction in the water down there.

I have no expectation that Kiffin would leave for Florida, but the distraction for his team and any angst it causes their fan base is welcomed.
When you haven't had one in this long, even a cheap one is worth its weight in gold. That divorcee will be so hard up and wanting revenge she'll do things to you she always swore she'd never do.So if they're in complete don't give a damn mode and we win... does that cheapen the Dub?

I think the only way he leaves Oxford is for another NFL gig.
One thing’s certain: Marcus Freeman is going to be a wealthy man in a couple of months. My gut says he stays put, but a bidding war with ND, PSU and I guess Florida means a good time for his agent. Wonder when Auburn is going to join the party?
Kiffin too, of course, but he’s already making plenty.

I do believe that this man has fond memories to base this statement upon!
He also knows 2 coaches have won multiple national championships there since 1990. I think the very few places he would leave Oxford for. But Florida might be one of them.
He was coaching one of the most dysfunctional NFL teams in the league. If the right situation came about he would do it again.
Stricklin recently signed a new contract that will keep him as AD until 2030, at which point he'll move to an advisory role.
Time for a pine box statement from the Sip. I bring up the Sip as I have some OM friends who are in their 70’s wearing hats and hoodies with it proudly displayed on the garment. If they’re trying to make me puke they are doing a good job.
I think Kiffin would leave for Florida in a heart beat if they were willing to pay him and commit to a good NIL budget. UM's best chance for keeping Kiffin is that I don't know that paying so much for coaches makes that much sense anymore when you can put that budget towards players instead.
The list is short though and there aren't many coaching changes at those types of schools. I think UGA, UT, A&M, UF, and Bama in the SEC. Don't know how he feels about the Big 10 but I would assume OSU. Maybe Oregon because of booster money? Don't know how Michigan or PSU would be viewed. In the ACC probably FSU is the only one? Miami maybe just because of location if they had some boosters step up big.
But as long as NIL and transfers are changing the landscape, there are some blue bloods that I don't know if they have the same pull as before. OU being a prime example. I know they're doing fine now, I just don't know that they will ever be what they were. , Hell, even Bama might be a no go right now, as they are going to have to reset expectations now that they aren't just competing with under the table payments.
I think some of you might be putting a little too much faith in the word of a college football coach, his kids, and your rebel friends.
Lane knows after last year that he will never win a championship in Oxford. He will eventually want to get somewhere he can. I don't know if that is Florida this year, but it certainly could be.
The dude was set to go to Auburn two years ago.

If FSU don't turn it around that might be another opening. They just lost three in a roll. Hell Strinkin might know something about that and getting ahead of the game.
This guy didn't tell us anything, nothing. He can claim anything that happens now in Gainesville is what he was talking about. He's full of sh-it
This takes me back to 2 summers ago.... Went on a cruise to Alaska. First hour on the boat i met a recently final divorcee.... lets just say that was a FUN week on the boat.
It's actually more likely to happen this weekend than not, regardless of rumors. He has been on the hot seat every year. This year is already a failed season so we know he is getting fired after this season. If you are going to do it during the season, the best time is prior to the bye to give interim time to game plan. Several schools have already fired their coach, so the pressure is on to get ahead of the process.
With no other sources and only the info stated here, I would say it's an 80% chance he will be fired by next Monday. Add in the misc. sources saying it is going to happen, puts it closer to 100%.

Im not going to say he isn't leaving Oxford, but someone is going to have to pay him $15M /year to get him to leave....two years ago, all he had was a daughter who was a freshman at UM...now his whole family is here....my kids run in the same circles as his kids, and IMO, he isn't leaving oxford any time soon.
And I believe Napier is done whether MSU wins, or UF wins....wouldnt be surprised if Franklin ended up at UF
Didn't we do this already?
Yep. His daughter got him for a year but who sticks around somewhere for their college aged kid? And Knox was visiting LSU last weekend while nobody showed up in Oxford for Wazzu.
I guess i did leave the door wide open on that one huh??
