Florida Reportedly to Pay Jim McElwain's $7.5 Million Buyout, on Verge of Hiring Him

It didn't take long for Florida athletic director, Jeremy Foley, to zero in on his man to replace Will Muschamp: Colorado State's Jim McElwain. McElwain is 22-16 in his time in Fort Collins, but the Rams have improved every year under his steed and posted a 10-2 record this year.

Foley and McElwain reportedly hit a snag yesterday over the latter's reported $7.5 million buyout, but those issues "have been resolved" and McElwain will be announced as Florida's head coach later today, as first reported by ESPN's Chris Low.
