Holtz should have stayed at ECU. South Florida was awful this year.

Holtz should be considered by Arkansas...he's a legacy.

I think that USF and UCF would be good pick-ups for the ACC.

UCF is getting better and better. USF self destructed in their Skip Holtz hire three years ago. That program is a complete disaster right now.

I attend games at both schools on occasion and the difference between the twi is really starting to widen.

Either he just didn't have anyone better than BJ Daniels, in which case I kinda feel sorry for him-or he wasn't smart enough to bench him, in which case he deserved to be sh#tcanned.

That QB didn't get 1% better in three years.

I attended the Rutgers game this year and man, did USF suck. Not only was Daniels really bad, their play calling was horrible and their defense sucked. It was really bad coaching and no quality recruiting/player development.

Like I said, that program is a disaster.

Great landing spot for Bobby Petrino.

I like this guy.

O'Leary has done his job as UCF coach and needs to ride into the sunset with them leaving CUSA. Would be interesting if both schools had openings at the same time.

As a season ticket holder and booster I thought Skip needed to go, things just didn't work out. Nice guy, just not the right person to move the program forward. I'm glad to see him go, hopefully the AD will be right behind him.

If they think their program is a disaster right now, just wait until Nutt gets done with them. They'll be starting walk-ons because no recruits will come there.

I think Petrino would be a good fit there. Lot of fast recruits in Florida and lots of blonde coeds as well.

I'm a member there but not nearly as active there as I am on TD.

The USF fan base is elated that Skip is gone. He's sent what was a growing program into he abyss. Most fans are convinced that USF would have been picked up by the ACC or B1G if not for Skip's miserable tenure. I don't know about all that.

I've got a feeling we end up with a low profile coach but the University could surprise me and go after a bigger name.
