I think there are a lot of coaches who would like to to coach under Meyer and learn his spread option offense. How many would like to work under Fulmer and learn his offense? They all want to be OC some day then HC later, much easier to do that being mentored by Urban Meyer then Phil Fulmer IMO.

I think he is using Fulmer to get more money/responsibility from Meyer, like Spence did. I will be surprised if he comes. Florida may not have used a RB this year, but I think they plan to use a single back in the future, just didn't have the right guy.

Hopefully he could help Chief and the defensive staff prepare a better gameplan for stopping the Florida offense next year.

Being reported (more like rumored) that Drayton could be hired tonight or tomorrow possibly.

This makes me think Fulmer has a lot more security with the powers that be than people realize. Otherwise, Drayton would be crazy to leave UF for the same job here.

Drayton may be a good recruiter, but I can't recall a Florida running back impressing me since Ciatrick Fason. That's been a long time; definitely before Drayson arrived.

It could just be the system that's holding the RBs back. However, Kestahn Moore fumbles an awful lot. That comes back to Drayton.

Who would want to work for a cry baby. CUB shouldn't have acted like an idiot when they lost there Bowl game. Drayton wants to show his coaching skills and he hasn't been able to do that. Plus i think him and Clawson coached a villanova together....

Beat me to it.

Think about this. Is it possible that Clawson has already agreed to be the guy?

The word is that Drayton is a done deal. Clawson and Drayton were together at Villanova. Maybe Clawson is pulling the strings from behind the scenes on this one. You never know.

They did. Clawson was OC at 'Nova from 1996-98, and Drayton was RBs coach there from 1996-2000. Very interesting...
