[gatortalk] according to Franz Beard

JOKER PHILLIPS IS THE NEW WR COACH AT UF: This will be an exceptional hire by Will Muschamp. Joker might not have gotten the job done at Kentucky as the head coach, but let's get real here, folks. This is the same school that ran off Bear Bryant and football has had only a few moderate pockets of success since. Given the circumstances, Joker Phillips probably did as good a job as possible at UK and got canned three years into a five- to six-year fix. Here is what I can tell you about him. He is a fine position coach and UF's wide receivers will feel the upgrade. Secondly, he is a terrific recruiter. It's a whole lot easier to sell Florida football than it is potential at Kentucky.

Jimbo Fisher is possibly the next coach at Tennessee.  Worked for Jay’s friend at f$u.

If not Jimbo, then Butch Davis.

Maybe Petrino to Auburn.  No Harley allowed.

 

 

 

lthy increase in salary (he makes $2.7 million at FSU right now). If he goes, it will be about a chance to coach against the best in the best conference in America. The sad and deteriorating state of the ACC will play a very big role in this decision. If he takes the UT job, Jimbo will also be working for Dave Hart, who was the AD at FSU when he was hired as Bobby Bowden's offensive coordinator/head coach in waiting.
