Florida fires Jim McElwain Thread

[Yogi]

He made it up as a way out of criticism. That's enough cause especially when you invoked something as crazy as that.

It was a bad hire from the start by a school looking to rid itself of Muschamp's stench. I just hope they don't try to hire Dino Babers. They have the money and resources he'd need.

UCLA, Florida, A&M, Nebraska, and Tenneseee will all probably be open. Maybe Arkansas too. Something is wrong if Babers doesn't get one of those jobs.

You know the SEC? So what? Muschamp knew the SEC and we saw what happened. Being a HC in the SEC is a hell of a lot different than coaching in the Mountain West. You little margin for error on the recruiting trail and on the field.

its a shame that yall became a school that can be poached, but i think Dino a little raw for them. they need to hit a grand slam and i have no idea who that is. Chad Morris/Scott Frost sound great on paper but what have they really done? its a tough gig

They are in a very tough spot selection wise unless it’s Mullen

 

[malbaker86]

Matt Campbell from ISU but his buyout is $9.4 mill

Frost

Norvell

Mullen

It'll be one of those

Would personally look at Chad Morris but we all know that isn't happening

 

[VICVALLIN]

The number 1 reason he deserves to be fired is because the best qb he had since his tenure began is now lightin it up at west virginia. Alienate and run your best player out of town brehs.

 

[malbaker86]

I agree with all that BUT Florida should never be shyt on offense. NEVER EVER.


i forgot Chip Kelly out there in the cut still

That's uh....REALLY not a bad idea for Florida...

12.9 million if they don't find a way to fire him with cause.



Chip from what I read/heard does not like recruiting, doing booster stuff and talking to media, I doubt he goes to UF. Those west coast school not USC/UCLA seem more his style.

Why is chip Kelly out of the question?

Kelly had issues with the NCAA remember? I mean he had no knowledge of what happened but still

At least fla makin moves


Fsu treading in quicksand with jimbo and his staff.

Jimbo got a 40 million buyout

Highest of any coach by far.

Saban is only 12 mill

Man WVU and Dana Holgerson has a air raid/spread attack. Every QB they have is gonna light it up. Even had Clint Trickett throwing for 4k yards and had Geno a damn Heisman candidate. Should be no surprise that Grier lighting it up there...even though he trew 4 ints yesterday.

Be that as it may, grier was balling prior to is suspension. As soon as he was suspended the season fell off a cliff. Instead of McElwain getting him back in the fold after seeing the trash they had the year before, he basically forced the guy to leave. Florida doesn't need a world beater, just a guy that's semi-competent. Grier shouldve been that guy.

Well i mean he did struggle in his last game at UF against Missouri but I get your point and I agree. He was progressing nicely but with this staff, we were gonna ruin him. It's the Mac and Muschamp way
