Mark Stoops Tried to Quit

Once you understand “best case scenario” and see it as a dead end job, that’s quite quitting.

Stoops figured that out about 2 summers ago. I could tell when he started complaining about having to do NIL fundraising while comparing that other SEC programs had other people to do that for the coaches.

There's plenty of opposing coaches I've despised over the years.

Stoops is close to the top of the list for me.

Can't say why. UT has owned him.

Just something about him I can't stand.

Even if Stoops took 50% (he wouldn’t) that would be a $19 million hit that Barnhart doesn’t have lying around.

This reminds me of the report a week or so ago that Florida was ready to fire Billy Napier and hire Lane Kiffin last season. If that were true why didn't it happen? It just doesn't make much sense. Why is right now any different?

Florida couldn’t fire Napier until after the 5th game (Texas) in order to keep players from taking a redshirt this season. I’d suspect Billy will be fired shortly after their next loss. They cant run the risk of him winning 4 or 5 & people saying “give him another year”

That's the UAA narrative you're parroting. Fans aren't even buying that because most players are on contracts that would not pay out if they redshirted with plans to hit the portal. It's why you didn't see a mass exodus at any of the other already-open jobs which is why Gator fans aren't buying that excuse.

I hear he's being given the opportunity to make it to 8-4 and if he falls short, he'll be outsed at whichever point it is no longer attainable. Not sure that's what's going to happen, but I doubt very many are worried about the portal at this point. Anytime there's a change, turnover is guaranteed, it just probably won't happen mid-season.
