The ratings LOVED Bielema's 2nd and 3rd teams at Arkansas and I think we can attest his year 3 team was pretty good.

But the last two years, especially this one, have been very ugly.

Plus, he might want to keep Sean because his teams usually stink at special teams.

That 2014 team finished dead last in the SEC west, with 6 losses to teams ranked in the top 20.

In 2014 a decent K-State team was playing for the conference championship the last weekend of the season.

I'm not sure I could come up with 5 coaches who would be worse than Bielema. I'm sure they are out there, but I don't know who they are.

Name three realistic options that are better, please.

You can stop, RATM.  I just wanted to see the types of names you'd throw out. 

Not sure what your grudge with Bielema is, but it's odd.

I wonder why McElwain did so poorly compared to Kirby Smart.

I guess the results aren't THAT different after two seasons, but still

McElwain won his division two years in a row and then got fired midway through his third season. I think he would be great here.

Winning the SEC East in '15 and '16 isn't a very remarkable feat.  Especially when you're Florida.

By the way, he lost to Bielema by 3 touchdowns last year.

He's had 3 unremarkable years of P5 coaching experience at one of the easiest places to win in the country.

He had 2.5 years at a program that was rebuilding from just firing a coach and won 9 and 10 games in the only full seasons he coached.

Wasn't much of a rebuild.  UF won 7 games the year before he took over.  In year 3 he's 4*-6.

Think Florida gets to 7 this year?

Top 10 recruiting classes for the 4 of the 5 years (one other was 23rd) before he got there.

Would take a special coach to rebuild after the lack of talent in that program when he got there.

It's hard to imagine a P5 school where it's easier to get ten wins than the University of Florida, given their division and recruiting base.

Leavitt would be a fine hire.  He checks a lot of boxes.  It's not quite as sexy as Venables in my mind, but it'd be a fine hire nonetheless.
