Just when you think that GOL is gone.....
- Thread starter firm_bizzle
- Start date
we deserve to be mocked if Hitt/White made that hire.
don't make this difficult White. Hire Collins w a full staff w Southern ties

Must be the "dark horse" candidate the Dungeon is hinting at. Judging by the comments, SOG stole this story directly from the dungeon which doesn't surprise me at all.
I'm not a fan of this idea at all. This guy and Chris Weinke would do absolutely nothing to excite this fan base. Honestly, I would rather give Muschamp or Cristobal a shot at the job over this proposal. Horrible idea.

No FL recruiting ties. No success as a HC. No demonstrable coordinating skill other than special teams. Odd name to pop up other than people know his Dad.
Believe this is done deal below rather than any other coach...Bianchi makes the case for hiring Shannon earlier in the year.

Seriously, a New York native who coached at Notre Dame. Is this a younger GOL clone?
when your fanbase is more worried about your administration screwing up one of the best open G5 jobs hire over going 0-12 #UCF
Why is a long term commitment key for the next head coach according to White? What's so bad about a coach coming for 5 years, winning, and then leaving?
You think UF is upset about the Urban Meyer era?

"One source also told the Sentinel one of the key factors the next head coach must possess is a long-term commitment to UCF." Code for old guy no one else will hire away if he's successful.
Hopefully it just means the coach will have to agree to a massive buyout clause if he bolts for another job in the contract.
This guy has had three years at Nevada and has gone 17-19 in the weak Mountain West. This after Nevada was a pretty decent job 5-6 years ago back when Kaepernick was leading them to division titles.
What about this guy screams winner let's bring him to UCF? Seriously, I just cannot even fathom it. Pure nepotism all because he was an assistant coach under his AD dad when they were at Notre Dame together.

it's a stupid requirement if that report is true and sets UCF up for mediocrity. "I'm scared ______ will win big and leave us in 5 years, let's hire someone no one else(including FIU/FAU) would consider hiring."(Randy Shannon)
If you want to hire someone that isn't going to leave just wait until Miami names ________ coach and then hire Butch Davis. He wants to coach, he won't leave, he had the ties to recruit. I'm not saying he's my choice just if UCF's criteria is your HC is not going to leave he is a top option.
Good article. I researched if there was any ties between McElwain and Shannon. There was none. I am still on board for Babers. Maybe he can find a defensive coordinator that can compliment his style.
After that Gene Chizi(k) would be my 2nd choice. GOL coached Georgia Tech for 7 years and was hired by Notre Dame. Chizik coached six years and he's a retread? Before you talk about how he only had one good year, he had three of four winning seasons at Auburn...not one. During those 3 winning seasons, he was 15-10 in the SEC. Give him our American schedule and i'm sure he'll be competing on a year to year basis once we purge the hearts, minds and/or remains of the GOL NGEs. Plus he was 5-1 against the big conferences during his winning seasons...and he beat Furman.*
