A couple more big time seasons and big time thanksgivings day match ups and we’ll be prime time. The ACC and SEC probably don’t want our programs going to a P5 conference, but it will happen

I think USF, UCF, and Houston are basically in the same situation as being in recruiting hot-beds but unfortunately G5 members-- and will always be stepping stones for the FSU/UF/Miami/Texas/Texas A&M's of the world.

Still like our situations vs other G5 programs out there

Halftime announcements on ESPN says Scott Frost will meet with Florida.

 Hate to be a farm school for P5 coaches. However, Aresco needs to use this as an argument to put the AAC as a P6  conference. How many coaches have we lost in the last couple of years that came from this conference and went on to P5 schools. You think 🤔 this would make a good argument.

if we lose strong (which I high doubt), I think we should look down the road at Butch Davis.

Biggest requirement to taking this job: being able to recruit Florida

It's happening... this year or next.. make peace with it

... Frost is rumored candidate for 3 jobs....

Florida

Nebraska

Oregon (if Taggart leaves)

 

Strong is tossed around for Florida, but I think it is very unlikely.

If it does happen, it will be next year. I still don't think a program would shell out big bucks for Charlie Freakin Strong-- his brand is still damaged from UT. 2 good years at USF doesnt repair his name enough for a P5 job, unless it is a lesser P5 job (like Boston College, Wake Forest, Baylor, etc)-- and even then, I don't think those jobs are better than USF.

Either way, if he bolts, I think USF has elevated it's program enough that we can attract a decent enough coach to keep things rolling-- like a Charlie Strong-type that failed at the P5 level, or a Taggart or Frost-type coordinator who is up and coming.

Does Les Miles want to coach again? Where does he land?

I doubt he ends up at UF.. and I think he's too big of a name for G5. I'd like to see him back in CFB though; he's one hell of a recruiter.

I'd love Les Miles
