I don't see any obvious hires out there, nor anyone who would leave their HC spot.  

I don't want a coordinator.  The only HC out there that interests me is Riley, but he's at a helmet and I wouldn't want him without some sort of extra confidence in who'd be coordinating the defense.  

Florida should have a "holy sh*t" hire, but I don't see it out there.

Florida's last 5 HCs:
.694 Mullen
.647 McElwain
.571 Muschamp
.813 Meyer
.622 Zook

Looks like it's pretty easy to win 65% of your games at Florida.  But to win 80+ percent, IE - "the guy" - it takes someone special.
Meyer and Spurrier remain the only two.

I'm glad we're not settling for relative mediocrity.  65% buys you a decade at a Missouri or an Arkansas, and it probbly gets you a statue at other places, but Florida is Florida.  We should be winning the East a third to half the time, and winning the SEC occasionally.  

Instead of FSU and Miami, we've now got Alabama, Clemson, and Georgia battling for FL's top talent.

Urban is a "holy crap" hire, though if you compare to when Florida originally hired him then Fickell compares pretty favorably.

Brady Hoke, and a lot of guys, are kind of interesting because you could see him still being at Michigan if he hired a good offensive coordinator instead of Al Borges

That's why I'd have waited,1 more season my belief was he could rebound.If not then at least you don't have LSU/USC looking for the same guy.Unless they already have a handshake behind the scenes on an up and comer

I'd rank the jobs like this....

1) Florida - most talent rich state, close to GA & Carolinas which also have tons of talent, great fan support, stadium, facilities, environment, campus, etc.., plus they play in SEC E -the easier of the two divisions at the moment. drawbacks: other big-time programs in the state in Miami & FSU- so can't lock-up all that talent.

2) LSU - tons of in-state talent and no other game in town, close to talent rich FL & TX as well. great fan support, stadium, facilities, environment, campus, etc.., drawbacks: have to play Bama in the West. Somewhat unrealistic fan expectations.

3) USC - this job sucks, imo.
I’d take LSU over UF. Better proximity to talent, better brand value in-state in a place that’s less trafficked

Mullen's buyout is $12 million and would've been lessened had Florida made the decision after the 2022 season.

Mullen's buyout figure ranks No. 8 in the SEC.

Florida athletic director Scott Stricklin and Mullen agreed to the buyout numbers upon signing, and the total was not altered after the Florida coach agreed to a three-year contract extension with a raise during the offseason after the Gators won the SEC East last fall.

Not sure that’s true. His buyout was a flat $12 mil, or what was left on the deal, which only fell below that with one year left on the deal. And almost no one coaches with only two years left
