From what I have been reading, it seems like he has expressed some interest in the job here in some form or another. He is a great recruter (see espn article below), has really good offenses, very passsionate about the school ( just check his twitter), and is only getting paid about $335,500 right now. Might be a cheap option if we are looking for an up and comer.

Has great numbers, rumor that Stoops might try to take him to UK to be the OC. May jump at the chance to be a HC. From Miami is a big deal.

We could do a lot worse. Hope this gut gets an interview.

Would be high on my list. Huge reason for FSU's recruiting classes. Him with Shannon at DC would be freakin gold on the recruiting trail down here.

Not too bad, good candidate, but if he's the OC at FSU why does Jimbo call the plays?

Seems like Coley declined Stoop's offer:

I actually like this option a lot. Some risk, but high reward. I would love for him to bring in Shannon as the DC. We need to do better here in Florida with recruits.

Yeah I'm warming up to this idea.
