With the way last offseason developed, it seemed Patriots offensive coordinator and former Broncos head coach Josh McDaniels could emerge as a top candidate for vacancies in 2014.

But according to one report, he’ll also be in the running for one of the best collegiate openings.

Football Scoop says that McDaniels is currently being vetted as a potential head coaching candidate at the University of Florida, where he would replace Will Muschamp. This is obviously just the start of a very long process, but it seems like the Gators are hoping for a little Bill O’Brien-type magic for their depleted program.
