Alright, supposedly chatter of a new HC on Monday. Lots of HC openings, more to come. Who you all think?
usf Next Head Coach…Who We Think?
- Thread starter U C to the F
- Start date
Charlie Crist. He is from Tampa area and he loses alot.
I feel like they may have missed their opportunity to lock in a solid available coach. All these jobs opening up, gotta think they keep getting lower and lower on the desirability factor.
Here are my two picks regarding their next head coach…. I DON’T KNOW and I DON’T CARE!
Buh-bye, Bulls. 👋

Frost makes a lot of sense, but thinking he may go to FAU instead
Herman also makes some sense
Herman also makes some sense
rumor is Chadwell has a Cow offer but may be waiting to see if Georgia Tech(interviewed) or West Virginia offer. West Virginia hasn’t fired their coach yet but they may hire the Coastal Carolina AD.
Has anyone been following their thread over in the pen today? Oh my god, good stuff, so is Twitter. All these people having “sources” to Deion and how it’s basically a done deal. Then it almost seems like it’s possible he was purposefully leaking it all and totally was using them, never intending to go there lol 😂. Of course, what is the truth, who knows, but if that all ain’t usf man…
They apparently think they are still hiring Deion at $5 million per year w an assistant coaching pool that is more than every other Power 5 School in this State
Where is all this money coming from though lol? They gonna pay a top 25 salary, with a few thousand ppl attending games where they only get a cut? They cray bruh…
My guess would be the Coastal Carolina coach. His pay would be in the same ball park and would receive a bump in pay from his current gig - maybe not much.
I did find it interesting that USF has to pay 2 coaches at all times which was why they extended Scott's contract and then fired him 4 weeks later. I think that is their curse - they have to have 2 coaches on payroll at all times.

Maybe Elon Musk is secretly a bulls donor? 🤷♂️ Seriously though their football coaches budget would be > the entire AAC TV contract.
Did you come across something to make to you think it’s happening? My take is they are getting used to make Colorado pay. It doesn’t seem feasible for a G5 Program to pay a coach $5 million a year who despite his big name is somewhat of a risk
if we were still in the AAC i would be concerned.
I don’t care who the coach is at teams in state not in our conference. Coach at Cinci affects us more.
Man, this one was good, had me laughing out loud. That JSU reporter is funny man.
Nope, just a gut feeling. No source or anything behind it.
Although they aren't in our conference, they are in our recruiting neighborhood. With UCF's selling pitch being based around us being "swaggy" and the "cool brand", we are now putting Malzahn up against Deion Sanders trying to be cool.
Let me ask you this, if it was super simplified and you got to choose from scratch, would you rather have Malzahn or Prime as our HC?
Malzahn and I have been critical. Prime has proved nothing yet at the D1 level and has zero experience coaching big time college football
prime because what i like most about gus is his focus on recruiting and prime would do it better. i also love that prime is all in on the CEO head coach (how it use to be). gus' insistence on running the offense drives me crazy.
That will continue to be true if he takes the usf job.
Prime is in bad shape health wise. He can barely walk and sits in a golf cart for practices. He can recruit but his immobility makes him look like hes 70 years old. If not older. Gus will be at UCF longer than Prime will be at next stop.
Deion Sanders Wants ‘Major Say’ in USF Stadium Construction If Hired, per Report - Sports Illustrated
Multiple schools are interested in hiring the Jackson State head coach.

they are using local Tampa reporters as sources who have never covered USF.Deion Sanders Wants ‘Major Say’ in USF Stadium Construction If Hired, per Report - Sports Illustrated

I don't think he looks to actually coach, just recruit, and surround himself with good assistants/coordinators that actually should be driving the play for both sides of the ball.
He wants to be the face of a program, which is not a bad thing if you hire the right staff.
Regardless, if he pans out or not. He will disrupt the recruiting environment for a few years which actually would be more impactful to UCF then if USF hired a great gameday coach that can make the most of diamonds in the rough.
I’m remember the same fear mongering when they hired Jeff Scott. I am not saying Deion wouldn’t recruit well but some of our fans really let their off season attention seeking campaign every few years get to them
they played us close(which I predicted bc our players never match the hate energy) but our Programs are light years apart right now. They are about to have conference home games vs Charlotte

How they play is completely irrelevant because of different conferences. But having more good recruiters locally does impact UCF and their ability to succeed. UF, FSU, Miami would be happy to have GOL back at UCF spending his recruiting days in NY and having little to none relationships with Florida High Schools.
