Yikes, FSU president John Thrasher has urged donors to up their giving to a “one-time 20% increase” to fund the coaching search.

I have a feeling they may be taking one last swing for James Franklin. If so, I hope Norvell stays put for one more year.

Franklin and PSU just announced an extension about 20 minutes ago. Jimmy Sexton is playing up Ole Miss' interest in Norvell to drive the price up, which is fair because Ole Miss will pay Norvell a nice chunk too.

Maybe Fred Smith and Brad Martin can back the money truck up at the last moment and some how, some way keep Norvell.

Now THAT'S what you call wishful thinking.

They can still get Bob but he can't have position coaches.

So what happens if Norvell isn't hire at FSU. He has let it be known that he wasn't interested in OM or AR unless FSU didn't happen.

What if OM and AR ban together to hire elsewhere and leave Norvell wanting... Or one of us hires him for less than we offer Kiff.

This could get more fun yet@

Could you imagine Ole Miss, Arkansas, and FSU in a 3 way bidding war for Kiffin? All of a sudden Kiffin is back at the big boy table and one of the ten highest paid coaches in football.

Ah. Never mind. He’s still gone.

No Norvell is still our #1 choice.

Yeah, I didn’t know Franklin was off the table when I posted that. Memphis is better off finding the next up and comer and using that money to continue to build and improve their facilities. They aren’t cut out to play those games.

This can only mean one thing.

FSU has no idea what they're doing.

I fully expect FSU to announce Norvell on Sunday, and Ole Miss to announce Kiffin right after.
