This would be a great stepping stone for Sean on his way to the P5 level

Wild to think UCF has replaced their coach twice since the false claim that Dino was going there before he came here.

UCF is a good job, great recruiting location and a competition level where it's not that difficult to succeed, IMO.

Damn. Good job by UCF. That's a great hire.

Smart move for Malzahn. All UCF coaches go to heaven. And by heaven, I mean a P5 job. He won't be out of it for long.

He should call Scott Frost when he gets a "bigger" offer.

I honestly think that’s the first time I’ve heard Skip Hotlz’s name since 2008.

I see another self-proclaimed national title in their near future.

Awesome job by UCF, lol @ Auburn, etc

Just read in the espn article that none other than Sean Lewis was going to get the job before Malzahn was offered. Wow. That woulda made this thread a little different

Here is the article. Not sure it was going to be Sean, but just to be considered is a great sign for his future.
Montgomery of Tulsa was also apparently on the list of candidates, which indicates they valued high coring, dynamic offensive schemes.

H0t Take: I think Nebraska will stabilize but will be mediocre to solid most years. Frost is a good coach, but constructing a team in Nebraska is worlds apart from running a program in Florida.

I don’t know. I’d have thought that a couple of years ago. But the ship is off course with not a lot of signs of correction.

Hand to God, that was my first thought when i saw his name pop up! I mean seriously, is Skip Holtz still a “thing”? Lol
