Nothing about it being a done deal and he also stated there are other people they are looking at. Florida is going to get Tom Herman'ed. 1 Link to comment

Unfortunately, I just feel like Moos is too old school to do that. I could be wrong, and I hope I am. At this point if it meant we lose out on a shot at Frost I don't think people would care the least bit that he went against his word. In fact, if he sits around waiting and we lose out on Frost he wont be here much longer then Riley. Riley will be responsible for firing more AD's then he does home victories in the 2017 season. 1 Link to comment

Normally not a good sign. Why wouldn't there be? The Nebraska job isn't officially open yet. All the media is saying is that Scott Frost is their top target. Not a single media person has said he has an offer on the table from Florida. The only thing they keep saying is that would be surprised if he isn't the hire or they expect him to be there next coaching. LIterally nothing about a done deal or an offer even on the table. Literally not a single word on years or dollar amounts. 1 Link to comment

I think the implication is that around the country because Nebraska job isn't OPEN. 2 Link to comment

There is even dollar amounts and years linked to the almost done deal. Link to comment

Not a single FLorida insider or Florida media person has said anything about years or dollars. That means there is nothing close to a done deal. 2 Link to comment

You don't need to fire your existing HC before you get your next one in place. Businesses do this all the time. You get your replacement in place (if you can) before pulling the trigger on firing someone. Moos literally did this same thing when he hired Leach. 2 Link to comment

Does it officially have to be open for pundits to know something? Does it have to be “open” for talks to happen or for offers to be made and maybe rejected? No. It doesn’t. 1 Link to comment

Florida is going to get Tom Herman'ed. the exact Rittenberg quote is "he is the 1a candidate at Florida. It would be almost a surprise if he doesn't end up at Florida. They are really targeting Scott Frost. " at 32:54 http://owh.backbonebroadcast.com/owh_mp3/TBL201711061200.mp3 Severe says the nonsense about not believing it and when Nebraska opens it changes things after Rittenberg hangs up.

ScottyIce Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 My god. I didn't think our fan base could top its negativity. Now we literally have no shot at a homebody, to be our next coach. Zilch. Nada. Zip. Zero. I guess time to move onto Campbell? 1 minute ago, Football Guy Bob said: Does it officially have to be open for pundits to know something?

BoNeyard Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Just fire Riley before the end of the season. At least if he ends up going to Florida it makes it look like to the fan base you tried. Link to comment

jessica0 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 When the Nebraska job officially opens and there is no deal closed with Florida, the media is going to change from Frost to UF to Frost to Nebraska. The same thing happened last year when the Texas job came open. Everything about Tom Herman was about an offer on the table for Tom Herman and then Texas came open and it changed everything. That is why LSU ended up hiring their DL coach. Link to comment
