He'll be back tomorrow. :lol:

My guess is that when he abruptly quit last year, AD Foley talked him in to taking time off and improving his health, and if it didn't work out he'd have a year so he could secure a coach. Dan Mullen is an obvious choice. Although if Foley has had that much time he may get a bigger name.

How about Mike Price at UTEP? He was a strong choice for a while for Bama? They made the New Mexico bowl.

Someone on ESPN said that every coach in the country is thinking about making himself a candidate as the new coach because Florida (followed by Texas) is the best college coaching job in the country. This was not Jesse Palmer :wub: speaking either.

I wouldn't be a bit surprised if Urban did this now because he wants Dan Mullen to take over for him. He was probably concerned Mullen was considering the Miami job. He's made enough money that he can take a few years off & rethink coaching.

Mullen turned down Miami. Maybe he already had a better offer.

Mullen would have won the SEC West if he had Newton. Their supporting cast is better than Auburn's and I'm an Auburn fan. Buddy can you spare a 180k. Florida can, and I wouldn't be surprised if Mullen leaves....

Anyone would have won the SEC with Newton. Even Vandy.

Well maybe not. :lol:

He will crush the Ducks.

You live in Cincy and Bob Huggins ain't exactly Mother Teresa.

Meyer does get special credit for putting Rainey "Now You Die BiXXH" back on the team.

That article did not say Florida was the best followed by Texas. It said Florida and Texas are the two best jobs in the country.

This is the quote I believe you are talking about.

You walk away from one of the two best jobs in your profession (Texas is the other) at somewhere near the peak of your career.

Don't accuse me of lying. I was posting in response to a live broadcast, not from an article in printed form that was posted later. It was a misquote due to not having a transcript and in the frenzy of the moment.

Give me a break.:roll:

Earth? No. Southeastern United States? Likely.
