I've heard this too and I'm perplexed by it. He's going to be 68 by the time next season starts and he seems to enjoy the TV gig. He's probably going to be expected to do for UNC what he did for them in the 90s and I think thats a steep hill to climb. And how long would he want to stick around anyways?
But if thats what they want, God bless them.

Mack Brown - UNC head coach (again) - FootballScoop
This Mack Brown thing to UNC is really gonna happen - and he's brining back Gene Chizik too!

That's a pretty decent hire for Western Kentucky. Dude was the scapegoat for Pruitt at Tennessee.

That would be a seismic shake up. Malzahn is an offensive coach whose offense has really sucked the last few years and has wasted some really good talent.

Why would he do that? He had a chance to go back to Florida a couple of times and turned it down. Florida is the better and easier job being in the East and money can't be much different.

I bet a guy like James Franklin or even Harbaugh who cant beat OSU would love that job. When things are right USC is the best job in that conference. Even when things appear right PSU and Mich are not the best teams in the Big Ten. USC i a mess but Franklin is a program reviver. Umtil the Seahawk started getting lucky a Peter Carroll reunion sounded somewhat possible.

Think Urban is gunna retire, I bet he is his replacement. Meyer had a cyst on his brain that was drained 4 years ago and they say they can't drain it anymore. OSU isnt a stressful job like Florida but you see him every week on the sideline looking like hes in some pain. With all the rift that went down this year it would make the social justice warriors happy.

Helton isn't going anywhere so none of this means anything. USC isn't a mess as much as they started a true freshman QB.

I'm sure they did look around, not sure who they looked at though. They must have got turned down. Franklin was asked about USC once. They either didnt look at him or he turned it down. Which would be baffling to me I think he got PSU as about as far as they can get.

The schedule not so much especially depending on the year. Yes you always have the big 3 in your division but Wisconsin isnt always on the schedule. While they have high expectations the season ultimately comes down to 1 result, the Michigan game. The Big Ten has a lot of weak teams. It's not tough top to bottom. You have teams like Rutgers, Maryland, Illinois, Indiana and like Nebraska. At Florida you always had the Georgia game and you played Alabama, Auburn and LSU. Ohio State is almost an SEC team just playing in the North with how they operate and get players. They're more talented than everyone else. Going undefeated is hard though. They have the talent of a top 4 team but they had an identity crisis. Haskins is more of a pocket passer than the type of QB Urban usually has. I'm not saying that Ohio State is a stress free job but it's not Florida. At OSY they always have the best athletes in the conference, at Florida they have one of the best but getting the best class and annually is not likely. The only school that can somewhat compete is Michigan but they almost always beat them out for recruiting classes.

Ryan Day isnt gunna pan out but i'd tell any school looking to replace one of the top guys out there be careful what you wish for because the next guy coming through those doors won't necessarily be able to keep up the standards. Sure just like tech always replaces itself, so does coaching but what evidence is there that Ryan Day could be the next Meyer or Saban?
