Would seem to be a good opportunity to get back to Florida. Greg's pretty good about confirming material. I'd guess it's from Shannon himself.

Durkin is apparently a top-flight recruiter, although (as acknowledged in this article) UF almost sells itself, so I'm not sure how good he actually is. He's also great at special teams, which we could really use (particularly in the return game). He coached at Stanford while CWT was there, which could help land him. http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/sports_college_uf/2012/02/rivals-names-floridas-d-j-durkin-as-nations-top-recruiter.html If I were choosing between the two of them, however, I'd still pick Randy Shannon. Recruiting-wise, he's got lots of invaluable connections in Florida, and he has experience and a lot of success at DC and HC (which could help CWT - have to remember he's young and only has three years as a HC). But Durkin would be an excellent second choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
