Will it??
Yeah, I think so. This is tied to the coaching search. It can get bumped every now and then but Gator Tears has probably had at least one post - and Usually more than 1 - posts per day for almost 5 years now. Do you think this thread will do that after this search is over, during the season… for years - every day???

I’ve said I’m 85% it’s Belk in some private DMs. I just heard nothing on Mason to Miami plus the OK ST rumors now, got some wind of some guys interviewing as a LB coach and no play-calling duties.. Belk was the only one that made sense to me

I’m not gonna say it’s him with certainty but putting the pieces together definitely seems like it’s him.

The hold up would be either - it’s not him or he’s waiting on final offers from us and ND to choose.
Does that mean Schumann has officially said no then?

Long term thread. Tears threads are continuous and always ongoing. This will eventually stop and fade.
Im torn on that. Part of me wants to see where our posters would take this during the offseason. But I think the prudent thing to do is to close shop once all the hires have been made and preserve this as if it were a historical CIS treasure.

Not saying you aren't plugged in (I know you are) but if Belk chooses ND over us, I'd chalk it up as the first true 'loss' that Mario has had since he's been here. I don't know what ND is offering compensation-wise and not aware of any previous connections between Belk and Freeman, but to turn down the opportunity to have full autonomy over the defense in favor of calling someone else's (and have them be involved), not to mention the Mario overlap, would not be a good look at all.

If he "turns us down for the job we didn't offer" I wonder if it will be leaked also

There was never smoke with him that I heard. I posted a while ago that someone on Georgia staff told me if he’s going to Miami it’s been kept completely mute and no signs of that whatsoever in their building.
i have always felt that this was a long shot once the won the title. given his relative yute (youth) it would make sense to stick around UGA to see if they have even further success which would make his stock increase.

I agree. It’s one thing to miss on a sitting HC.

Missing on a G5 coach for the same position - an obvious promotion - to another school essentially in our conference that doesn’t offer autonomy and control would be a miss.

I don’t think ND is paying more than us.. it’ll come down to where he would rather be. ND personnel is certainly better than ours on D right now

I trust what you are hearing to be accurate but do you have any idea why this could be taking so long to announce? I know Mario has his own timelines but he announced Kevin Smith who was an outside hire a day after we heard it was happening. Houston’s bowl was 12/28.
