You are reading way too much, he is just making a joke that coaches are always rumored to be moving, either getting fired or going someplace "better". Dan has said that over and over again. He may leave someday, but it won't be to go to Florida.

But he did not say he was not open to move to Tenn. Or aTm or ND or TSUN or the Dallas cowboys....so looks like he gone.

He. Is. Not. Going. To. Florida.

This is the correct answer. For two reasons. One, Megan has already said she had to go grocery shopping in Orlando while they lived in Gainesville. And it wasn't because they lost a game - it was because they didn't win by enough.

And two, and most people probably think this is secondary to the first reason but I think it is the most important actually, is Jeremy Foley. Strick may be the AD there, but Foley is still in charge. And Foley has been notoriously the most difficult AD to work for in college athletics.

Meanwhile Dan can stay here, get paid well, have reasonable expectations, and have the keys to the kingdom.If he were to leave, it won't be to Florida. I've actually heard Dan comment on this off the record, and he has stated that the grass isn't always greener on the other side. He knows this from personal experience. He has had opportunities to leave and he hasn't. Stop being chicken little.

The elephant in the room was addressed. The UF job. I liked Dan’s response with, “I’m fortunate with what we have here— I love it here— I’m still here, aren’t I?”

Then what bothered me is:

“In this conference, you’re either out the door because you’re losing or because you’re winning. I’d much rather be on the winning side.”

Am I reading too far into what he said?

Even when dan addresses the rumors he does not address it appropriately it seems. No win situation for him with our fans it seems. I wonder if blacklist bully will have an opinion on this.

To be clear, you’d rather him leave due to losing? Personally, I’d prefer that, if he is to ever leave, it’s because he’s been a winning mofo. I like that he wants to be winning.

Not at all. I reckon I read too far into it. It happens.

I think he (and Sexton) will parlay these coaching vacancies into extracting more money out of MSU. I'm ok with that. I estimate he may get bumped to $5 mil. I just want coaches like Grantham to get bumped up too.
