So the issue LAST time (2017) that we are willing to solve THIS time (2021) is the coach's buyout

Looking back on 2017 names:

Dan Mullen - hard to think he leaves UF
Greg Schiano - Yeah, no
Jeff Brohm - We WERE really close there, but I don't think he's considered a big dog
Mike Gundy - We were close, but come on
Dave Doeren - I don't think he's our big boy
Mike Leach - The buyout wasn't the issue there
Gruden - Nope
Petersen - no buyout now
Chip Kelly - no buyout then
Bob Stoops - no buyout now
Matt Campbell - HMMMMM
Kevin Steele - nope
Mel Tucker - not a big dog

I listened to Chris Low on the Nation tonight.

Based on what he is hearing, he would rule out Kiffin and Freeze. That was the clearest message from his discussion.

AP asked him who the "home run" candidate would be, and the first name he said was James Franklin. Long discussion of what he would bring to the table.

Next mentioned was Campbell, but said he didn't think he would leave the Midwest, very short mention.

Next discussed at length was PJ Fleck, really talked him up.

Briefly namechecked Billy Napier.

Lastly went on for some time about Tony Elliott.

Now it's worth mentioning that he never said "I am hearing these names" when discussing Franklin, Fleck, and Elliott, like he did when ruling out Freeze and Kiffin. But to the extent we believe Chris Low may be real plugged into this search, those three seem to be the most likely. I hope my reading of the tea leaves is wrong and we get hit with the swerve of Matt Campbell.
So when DW asked for positive vibes, he didn’t really mean to Choose Joy?
