X link - as stated in title.

Not sure about the source, but it would makes sense.

Opens up Arizona - Ryan Grub could be a candidate.

Yeh I can’t believe Fisch would take this job

Arizona has like 19 of 22 starters returning, including its QB.

Easily could be a playoff team in 2024 and ride that momentum to a bigger job.

Don’t buy that Grubb was turned down. He was always going with Doboer to Bama.

I checked Jason Scheer’s account and didn’t see anything confirming this.

Who is Florida’s main target now once Napier gets canned? I’m looking at gators schedule next season and he’s definitely not surviving that

Didn't Fisch just get extended with UA last night? I mean, I know contracts don't mean anything but it happened last night.

"If" this is true, Lane will be coaching Florida in 2025.

Brutal for Arizona. Their team is about to get blown up.

I'm speculating here, but unless the AD at UF is fired, I don't think Napier gets fired. I think he plans to stay with Napier long term. May take UF off the board for Fisch and prompt him to take another job if open.

Napier's buyout link to sportskeeda:
If Florida decided that they wanted to part ways with Napier...they would owe him 85 percent of his remaining annual compensation. The buyout could have a significant tag as half of the total would be paid within 30 days of being fired while the remaining money would be paid in equal installments throughout the course of four years on every July 15.

As of October 2023
He is owed $37M in salary, so he would get 85% of that, which is $31.45M.
After this next season he would be owed 37 - 7.4 (annual salary) = 29.6 * .85 = $25.16M
After 2025 the buyout would be 18.87M

I think UF is still on the hook for Mullen's annual buyout payment of $1M until 2026. He got 50% immediately, then installments each year for six years. Stricklin gave him $12M, unmitigated.

Stricklin screwed up the Mullen situation badly and cost UF tens of millions. I think he intends to ride it out with Billy, long term. He's the worst AD at UF since, well, since forever.

If Fisch takes the UW job, and if Billy falls flat in 2024, then UF boosters and fans will either pledge their love and loyalty to UF, while not pledging their dollars, and not forcing a move - or they will back up the Brinks truck to Lane's house and make him an offer and buyout Billy.

I think a lot of UF fans have lost confidence in the administration and are ready to just sit on the couch and take it easy.

Ben Sasse, now UF president, has his work cut out for him.

Seeing on the ticker that Fisch took the UW job. So...it's Stricklin and Billy, long term, I guess. Otherwise it's Lane Train, headed to Gainesville.
