Foley Headed To Ft. Collins - Jim McElwain to be hired

[Gator_Chompz]

Yes this was Foley's fifth choice. I wonder who Michigan is getting.

Honest question....IF Michigan hired Jim Harbaugh would it make you mad that if Foley ponied up he could have hired a big name coach?

Twitter is telling me Colin Cowherd was Mac's roommate at E. Washington University. Twitter also has a lot of pictures of Mac's house. This is what I've been reduced to following while we wait for the official word. God, let's get this over with....

Easy dub. This cat has an entirely different smell.

You on the mac train?

Now where have i heard this bullsh34 before. .:headscratch:

That is BS they posted. At CSU he runs a wide open spread that gets a lot of passing yards. I watched some game tape on them.

I am open to it. I was totally against the WM hire, so this feels like a win. The fact that he is not a dwag is a plus.

Does Michigan even have a new AD in place? That's a crapper for any coach to walk into.

If he's the coach, we all are.

Whew! Had me fck up for a minute

While we wait for the official announcement confirming Mac's hiring anyone else enjoying the FSU angst and hand wringing over being ranked #4 in the poll behind three one loss teams? As for me I'm enjoying the hell out of it.......

I have a feeling Mullen ends up there or Nebraska.

I thought he may still run that Bama stuff until I saw it also. He was definitely running a spread offense with good balance - they just didn't run many zone read type run plays with the QB but my guess is he doesn't because that guy could pass pretty damn good from what I saw.

Twitter telling me Foley spending the night in Ft. Collins. [Sigh] Looks like now announcement tonight.....

My word is that he still hasn't pulled the CSU team together and Foley does not want to leave without ink on paper.

Nice passing numbers. Can't wait to see what he does with SEC talent.

Gators, please read McElwain's coaching profile in full.

 

[lagator]

Blows my mind that you have to add the "or hate him" part. Dude is the best in the biz!

:headscratch: It's a decent hire, may turn out to be a very good hire, but best in the biz?

If this is for real, we could be getting a blend of "Saban & Spurrier" ? Happy Days here again ?
