If Spurrier wants the job, it's his...I don't care how much money he wants, or who else is out there. Of course, Spurrier could end up at Penn State too.

no way....no question...the spurrier act is a rouse.....
do you want a 62 year old coach who dissed your team just two years ago and said he doesnt see himself coaching past 65 ...or a young guy that wants to make a name for himself and win a title??? and this kid has ties to your a.d..??
youve got to be fucking me if you think i would take slick steve over urban....??
think about this brainiacs....do you really think spurrier needs time to decide if he wants the florida job??? fuck no....he already knows if he wants it or not.....
therefore; the only hold-up is to see if somebody else may also want it....sadly...for uf....that coach is #6 in the bcs....
steve is clearly the second choice this time....or it would already be done...
i just hate being right all the time.....

Spurrier hates the current AD...one of the main reasons he left to begin with.
Could end up halting the return

You might take Urban over Steve...95% of the Florida alumni and boosters might disagree with you. I'm not saying Meyer SHOULDN'T get the job, but if Spurrier wants it...I still think he gets it.

Serenity now
Morelli already burned his redshirt. Now he supposedly "isn't prepared" to run the offense. I can't imagine him being worse than Robinson.

spurrier gets it ONLY if Urban turns it down....hence the holding pattern....it is also the cause for the increased rush for retirement for joepa....think about it logically....spurrier would already be on board if florida didnt have interest from urban..
both these schools want urban...and they are very smart in going after him this hard......this is like two chicks doing anything to get the hot guy....
also: dont forget that urban would much prefer to be the next head coach at notre dame than either florida or psu.....
if i am urban...i ask each school to keep things open and quiet until jan 5 2005....after that he can pick between at least two of the three teams...and depending on how the season plays out...maybe any of the three...

Watson, Crick & A Twist
In 2 minds over JoePa
I like the guy - JoePa is the closest thing we have left to a legit legend in the annals of college football - keeping close company with the likes of Hayes, Bryant, Rockne. There will not be any like him ever again - not with the way college football is today.
I think its time for him to go - I thought it was time for him to go not too soon after Sandusky was ushered into an early reitrement presaging a demise in the Penn State program. As it turns out, Sandusky's ouster was really the lesser of 2 mistakes. The first was joining the Big10 -- and not planning adequately for the future.
Joining the Big10 was at first a boon - then a bane for a once proud program.
1st Six years - 2nd best record in B10 play (36-12), winning 75 percent of its games only tOSU was better in that period from 1993-98. Plus PSU was close to another National Championship in 1994.
1999-2003, however, Penn State was 18-14 (56 percent) and they posted two .500 seasons in the conference in the past three years, their only non-winning records since joining the Big Ten. They have not posted six wins in the conference since 1997. And now in 2004 we have an even worse implosion. Its hard to see any game on their schedule that is a gimme - really. They face Northwestern and Michigan State - in between which is sandwiched Indiana (who just last week got off their own snide). They could end up 2-9 on the season.
Yes, Paterno HAS stayed too long as HC at PSU. There have always been honorable outs he could have taken, ones which would have let him parlay his reputation to benefit the institution he so obviously loves. Its just damned sad that it has to come down to this -- he is in danger of turning a legend into a laughing-stock. Truly, truly sad - truly, truly pathetic.

Urban has an out clause for OSU, Michigan, or ND. PSU is much closer to the tradition, culture, and locale of those schools than Florida.
