Can you blame them? Why dont the athletic department demand he scores a touchdown against fsu?It's encouraging that Mac is fighting for improvements, but at the same time it's discouraging that the administration is being resistant towards that.
So the question is, will Mac leave for another job soon when he doesn't get what he wants?
Even that could be a good thing. We have the chance at landing a championship coach AND put proper focus on the stupidity going on in the athletic department. If the AD doesn't clean out the swamp/septic tank, perhaps he is flushed also.
If we can't land a championship coach, at least we could land one who recruits well enough to build for the next guy.

If you do, make sure you mention how much you love the ignore feature every other post.I think Im going to put Vulcan on ignore.
Well, somebody needs to push those sluggards and if true, Mac deserves credit. It's obvious that the slug Fooley's sluggishness left a trail of slime that rubbed off on all the would be slugs and has turned the whole department into a Slugsville. All those slugs need a good dose of salt.He is pushing HARD, to the point of really rubbing people the wrong way, for upgrades to the facilities, coaching, and support staff. They said Mac wants ALL the bells and whistles in the new facility and then said something else... They said he's IS NOT going to get EVERYTHING he wants Mac is gonna be pissed and give them holy hell.
Youre dead to me.On the other hand, while I loved UF, I hated almost every moment in gainesville. Can't think of anything that would ever make me return.
Apart from academics which is why I chose UF, what else is there in devil's millhoper or hogtown? A 40 year old mall that smells like asbestos, a prairie and a sinkhole? I'm a city boy so facilities are "the big sell."
I hope youre wrong.I don't think we landed an AD with a "championship" mindset. It's more of the same Dollar General hiring. Where he came from, we're world champions already.
... or is he throwing a smoke screen?
I am so on the fence about Mac. I personally like the guy, I feel like he's headed in the right direction but..... he makes some questionable decisions. Maybe if he had the resume to back up those decisions I would feel more comfortable or maybe I'm still jaded from watching muschamp learn on the job with all the grace of a bull in a china shop.
Could Mac genuinely believe that upgrades are the missing ingredient or is he throwing a smoke screen? That really makes all the difference.

this. My major concern is that Mac knows the only way he can land the top talent is because of great facilities, not selling himself, his coaches, or his plan.
if Mac could recruit worth a crap he wouldn't need all the facilities to get kids here.
I never thought of it that way, ... maybe because it wasn't the first time I ever saw a girl.Co-eds.
What turned me on about visiting G'ville for the first time was that it was city that was 90% kids my age and half of them were women. Maybe you're just not in to that.
I can see if you are big city Gville sucks but if you like nature (SPrings Itchetucknee , beaches, seafood (CedarKey) rivers and lakes, bars, Hippodrome Theater, etc, the Gville aint so bad..............I never thought of it that way, ... maybe because it wasn't the first time I ever saw a girl.
This. Whatever his coaching and recruiting flaws, he has been exposed to what it takes to have a winning program.They arent used to a HC making these kinds of demands. They need to listen if they want to keep up with the rest of the schools. He will leave this place better than he found it facility wise.
And it's not just facililties. Bammer has 30 guys watching film, half or so of them have been previous college coaches. These QC/coaches are why Bammer always knows what play we are likely to run just by formation and maybe player packages.
