Florida HC 'eying' Oregon job?

[BiscuitEater]

Florida HC Jim McElwain is 'rumored' to be interested in the Oregon HC job. See story here.

And the reason for posting this .. 'new' AD Scott Stricklin could be shopping for a football HC and WHO do you think would make his 'short' list?

Lots of dominos would have to fall .. but stranger things have happened before.

If Stricklin would even think about taking Mullen - he would be excommunicated by the whole MSU fanbase.

That seems like McElwain pushing for a new contract from UF. He seems like an awful fit for Oregon.

I think the odds of UF hiring Mullen went down when they hired Scott Stricklin.

I wouldn't want jim McE. He's an offensive coach and still can't produce offense...

13th in sec in total offense
11th in sec in scoring offense
13th in sec in rushing offense
8th in sec in passing offense

Vs biggest rivals...

Miraculous comeback last season vs Tennessee or he'd be 0-2 after Florida won like 20 in a row or something crazy like that.

0-2 vs fsu with combined score of 58-15

The offense would be really concerning to me if I were a Florida fan. Mullen in his first year produced offense with Tyson lee at qb. McE has won the sec east both years bc boom left him supreme defensive talent

Exponetially.

Correct. We understand the move he made, but no way he wants to be a villain

in the eyes of our entire fanbase.

Oregon State maybe...he's got the bite similar to Bucky

I don't get the McElwain fever. At all.

Or the hero? We managed to upgrade at baseball coach. Did the Ninja put all this into motion when he came to visit Starkville earlier this year?

But seriously, no way this happens. Oregon is a premier job in a great place to live. I don't blame McElwain for being interested. He obviously misses the quality of living in Colorado. This had to be agent doing work.

McElwain is a goober in my view.

Doesn't seem like a great fit at Florida.
