Aw man...

Mullernz to wherever Durkin left!

Defensive coordinator at Michigan?

$6.6 million per year seems like a lot for Durkin.**

Well if true then there's only 3 left, Miami (Richt IMO), S. Carolina and UVA. Could add Memphis if anyone needs a good laugh for the day.

Take this for what it's worth, but ESPN reports that people close to Richt don't expect him to coach in 2016, and if he does, Virginia is the most likely place. If so, that leaves Mullen as a leading candidate for Miami, if "sources" are to be believed.

He'll go out and travel and relax for a while. I expect him to be back in the game for the 2017 season.

For someone who's thinking about sitting 2016 out, he sure is busting his *** trying to find a job.

 

[FlotownDawg]

Just because he is interviewing doesn't mean he's determined to take a job in 2016. He might be trying to decide if he wants to coach and taking these interviews is one way to determine. If one of the job opportunities blows him away, then he might take it. I don't really think he would be a good fit at Miami. That program is all about "swagger" and Richt is about the least "swag" coach there is. I do think he would be a great fit at Virginia, with their kind of preppy, low-key dynamic. I think that if he takes a job this year, it would most likely be Virginia.

This may explain Mullen talking to Maryland. He may have recommended Durkin. They have Bowling Green and Florida ties.

Looks like Miami and Richt think he's a good fit there. He's going home.
