Florida Gators (official thread)

Power rank the major openings (thus far):

UF
USC
LSU
VT
Washington
Wazzu
Texas Tech
TCU

(This is not my rankings, I just made a list)

If I'm a top tier HC looking for reasonable fan expectations, tradition of success and no 800lb gorillas present in my conference I'm looking at USC and Washington.

SEC jobs may be sexier but you have to go up against firmly entrenched Saban and UGA and win immediately. Both rosters are a train wreck.

If I'm a coach of lesser rank that blob of VT/TT/Wazzu and TCU...meh. Take the best deal.

My rankings:

1. USC
2. VT
3. Washington
4. TCU
5. LLLLLLL5U
6. Wazzu
7. Texas Tech
8. fLLLLLLorida

fLLLLLLorida is a dead program and not coming back. Kirby killed it and will do to them what Spurrier did, but twice as much because he has at least an extra decade of coaching at UGA than Spurrier did at fLLLLLLorida.

LLLLLLL5U is in 5th because they are "5th Place U" which is why they are also "5 Win U" and will get their 5th choice for coach Bill O' Brien (after Jimbo, Lincoln, Tucker, and Franklin turned them down) to solidify their standing as "5th Choice U".
