Just heard the Muschamp is going to bring Davis to UF. Anyone else hearing this?

Yeah, I'd have a hard, hard time beleiving that. Lot of people think WM left in large part because he didn't think much of "Mack's guys." WM didn't think his input into the new hires were more than lip service, which meant he'd get more of "Mack's guys".

unlikely
it sure sounded like Davis' "resignation" was on the behest of Muschamp, when he was the HCIW

NotSmart is a terrific coach. I know some believe he gets too much credit for Alabama’s defense because he works for Nick Saban. But if he wasn’t highly regarded, he wouldn’t be on Saban’s staff and Alabama wouldn’t have bumped up his contract to $750,000 a year to keep him when Richt phoned.
But Smart’s next move should be as a head coach. He’ll get offers, as soon as next season. We all know there will be some tenuous heading coaching situations going into next season.
If Saban, who has a reputation for burning out assistants, is driving Smart nuts, that’s a factor. If Florida offers to elevate his pay even more, that also would be a factor (although it’s hard to imagine the Gators paying Smart much more than he’s making now). Finally, there’s the opportunity for Smart to work with a close friend in Muschamp.
But if Smart leaves, he will be taking an enormous risk. We know Alabama is going to be a very good team again next season. We don’t know that about Florida. The outgoing Urban Meyer said the Gators are “broken” right now. There’s a transition period for any new head coach.
Mostly, we still have no idea how good Muschamp will be as a head coach. The fact he was the coach in waiting at Texas and deserved this opportunity doesn’t guarantee he will be a success. It’s a different job with different responsibilities when you’re the guy in charge.
If Muschamp struggles, his coaching staff slides down with him. Smart already is a hot commodity. He’s not going to become a hotter commodity in Gainesville.
hing has been see here in Fla.

could the texas hire be applewhite then?

yeah....that would be perfect
I dont get the sense that anyone (including Deloss) tells Mack to "do" much of anything - they simply suggest it
but, there is alot to be made that all offseason, all your heard around town was "power run" "run" "run oriented" etc etc...."we're going to change our offensive philosophy to a power run"
week 1, week 2.......then %$!@^!%@......it's right back to the passing scheme/zone read they've been watching all these years
rumor is that fundamental shift @ week 3 caused a bad break amongst the coaching staff, particularly with Muschamp. Major apparently was in Muschamp's camp - who the other coaches were and where the lines were drawn, I'm not sure.
but, I feel confident in stating that for the past 2 seasons Mack consulted Muschamp on many, if not all decisions. It's highly improbable that Willie wasn't key in forcing Davis' departure.

sugatowng, that quote you have is probably one of the funniest and truest quotes I have ever seen on this site. I honestly can imagine him doing that. "Hot sizzle, hot sizzle, Ohh baby!" When he gets fired because of his cheating tactics, I really advise him to join the ANd1 tour, he could probably bring a little more notariety to the tour.
