It is similar to the GCMB article written by Cover2.

I like the idea of hiring Kingsbury next. Glad that was mentioned though you never know what Fooley is thinking, if he's still around.

I can't believe someone would even consider keeping Flushchimp after another shiiit season 9-4 or worse. Too many of you people are proud of losing and dwags at heart. Hell, he starts the season with 6-7 wins that damn near ANY coach could win (see Zook).

We have a difficult schedule. I don't think any Gator would be happy with 8 wins. That being said it may be just enough if Georgia or FSU is one of those. For me, the cut off is 9 wins pre-bowl.

The schedule will try to dictate to him only 7 wins; let's see what he dictates to this his test-team.

How do we define a "successful and overachieving" season? Six wins would amount to 50% improvement.

There are some people on here that would be perfectly happy with 7-6, 8-5 or 9-4. They are just bulldwags wearing the wrong colors.

I think 9-4 would save WM's job, but I'm not sure how many would truly be "happy" with that record. For me, it's more about how we look playing in those wins and losses than the record itself. However, if we end up with 10+ wins, but lose to UGA again, the cry of outrage by most Gator faithful will be loud, so he could still lose his job with 10 wins imo. UGA is a must, must, must win this year.

I think 7 wins he keeps his job. That's just the way it goes.

9 wins pre-bowl would be success 8 wins or less would be failure especially with another Georgia loss. No passes for that 4-8 instead of 6-6/7-5 last season.

Imo there is zero chance of Muschamp losing his job if he wins 9 games pre-bowl regardless if he loses to Georgia again. Foley would assure that. I think he is almost a 100% lock to be retained with 8 wins pre-bowl as long as he beats Georgia due to Foley.

9 wins with the current roster and schedule is a success (pre-bowl), 11 wins would be overachieving (pre-bowl)

Edit: less than 9 wins and a loss to Georgia, will be a pink slip. And a victory against Georgia and 8 wins, might not be enough either.
