That strange smell is relief, hope, and optimism, with a side of 'did that really happen?' followed by 'yes, that did really happen'.
New Coaching options?

We WILL get a better coach than UTK just hired.

Being a doormat has been decently successful the past 5 years. Sometimes you have to accept your role
You get what you accept. We have opportunities others schools don’t and from that standpoint we need to use that to our advantage.
Graham Harrell or Lebby would be great hires IMHO that would continue our offensive dominance. Liepold from Buffalo could be good as well, he had one of/if not the most productive running back in the country last year and has always been successful.
I don't think I'd hate the idea of Randy sticking around for one year to right the ship and keep recruiting going. He'd need to bring in one-year OC to try to keep the offense moving, but it would allow for some continuity. It's going to be hard to get a "great" hire this late in the cycle.

Jamey Chadwell, a two-time FCS National Coach of the Year finalist and three-time Big South Coach of the Year, became the third head coach in Coastal Carolina football history on January 18, 2019.

Tony Elliott vs Jeff Scott would be a firework show that I would buy tickets to.
Tony Elliot is not taking a G5 job. Lebby is a more realistic candidate.
I still have PTSD from that Super Bowl, no.
Well I been swept up in the news in Knoxville they held a press conference at 12:45 overall the VOLS fans seem happy considering the up coming sanctions and the poor offensive performance over the last 3 years. I believe Heupel is going to find the same challenges Frost encountered.
Now on to the important stuff. I believe giving Lebby a shot at coaching would be the least impact on the current momentum UCF building a top offensive power. Just look what he achieved at Ole Miss this year and the points they put up on Alabama. Now just get it done before signing day.😎

Again for those of you sitting at the back - we need to hire an AD FIRST before the HC is hired.
Again, we dont know yet how many assistants Heupel will poach. Kodi Burns and Elarbee are expected to follow him to UT. Probably others as well.
If he can pull some of those Florida recruits, I'm all for him. I never understood why Heupel always recruited outside of Florida so much.
12 Potential Candidates for UCF’s Head Football Coaching Job
UCF should have their pick of who they want to take over for Josh Heupel

I hope they don't break up the staff too much for the sake of the players. I don't know if we could hire within for one year and then pick up a new coach at end of year after long search. Unless the internal hire turns out to be excellent. Will next bulletins be the exodus of coaches to Tennessee?
Stop it with these guys that were fired from previous jobs. We see how that turns out as both Huepel and Shannon were fired for poor performance.
Lebby is my choice!

Yeah. What doesn’t Quinn understand about beating the Pats by running clock. That was one of the worst coaches games I’ve ever seen....and I’m a Seaturkey fan and was sad to see Quinn leave.
Hey, would you guys like Scott Frost back??!? 
Only as as an interim coach. Oh wait🤔Hey, would you guys like Scott Frost back??!?
Of course Lebby, given his offense’s success this season in the SEC and the players’ favorability towards him. But the question remains, does he have the skill set to be a head coach? Does he have the ability to run a program effectively? That takes a much different skill set than being a position coach or coordinator
The Baylor baggage doesn’t concern anyone about Lebby? that past is much more likely to get dug up as a Head Coach vs an assistant
It already has gone away. Coach O swept it under rug at LSU and no one is saying anything.
that is LSU. UCF has a more diverse student body and if something worse gets uncovered then you have demands for his firing and then UCF is F’d
I know players love him but the University President has to gauge risk when doing background checks
Have to hire an AD first. And because of baggage and short time as an OC, I don't see a new AD hiring Lebby as a HC.
I have no idea if Tony Elliot has interest but if he does you have to make him offer number 1
DG is on a RT spree from players tweets saying to grab Lebby
If Lebby gets hired, I expect Shannon to gets his contract renewed. It will probably be another 1A, 1B situation.
Though I do think adding Kevin Smith as OC (with Lebby as HC) would make the choice more palatable. All unlikely to happen though.
Elliott should look at doing 3-4 years at UCF then when Saban retires and Dabo goes to Bama he slides into Clemson and hires failed former usf HC Jeff Scott as his waterboy.
all of our players wanted Troy Walters also ..you don’t make emotional decisions
Lebby would not be my number one choice. Nothing against the guy, I know the players like him, but I hate the Baylor air raid style of offense and that’s what he would bring.
Much more of a fan of a traditional spread that focuses on getting the ball to guys in space than them winning one on one battles streaking down the field.
