Happy Anniversary! Jim McElwain fired

[Treebeard]

This joke was worth re-posting.

It would be fascinating to graph the emotional roller-coaster of the board since this was first announced.
Up - Mac's firing
Up - Chip Kelly/ Scott Frost are targets
Up - Kelly is coming!
Down - Kelly is not coming!
Down - Kelly is going to UCLA
Down - We are getting Mullen!
Small up - Taggert to FSU/Pruitt to UT
Up - Corral is still coming!
Down - Corral is not coming!
Up - Jones may be coming!
Down - Jones is going to FSU!
Way Up - No, Jones is UF!!!
Down - UGA recruiting well...
Moving up - Mullen is looking better than we first thought!
More up - Recruiting looking good!

The future so bright...

Still not surprised that NO ONE, other than Randy Shannon, has gotten a job elsewhere.

Coaching staff was piss poor. Bunch of lazy bums who got a fat paycheck and didn't earn a dime of it.

I'm with Ox, it's thievery.

Id dont think Doug Dumpsterfire will ever work again. He somehow got jobs at Bammer, Meatchikin and Florida and was a disaster at each. Too many people know how terrible he is at everything for him to land another P5 job.

Im sure someone will eventually hire Quiverlips.

Nord, no chance.

Most of the others will return to FIU soon.

Nothing we didn't already know, but the "attention to detail" comment's gotta sting.

 

[GatorInGeorgia]

We should have a Mac-sighting thread, but no lies. Where is the flop and what can we speculate his presence there means. BTY, for all we know UF may have given him $7 million of buyout? That subject should be revealed if there are odorless leaks.

I think an open records request would give us the truth about the buyout. With UF being a public institution, I think they have to disclose that info for all to see.

You have to smile at the irony of the author's use of "inherent" instead "inherit" with regard to the quote criticizing McYet's lack of "attention to detail". Pot, meet kettle, albeit on a massively lesser scale.

Rumph got hired at Tenn. Davis got hired (I think Missouri). Bell hired by UCF.

If Nord, Nussmeir or Butters gets hired I'll be shocked....

What a Christmas present this was!

Almost as good as the go kart I got when I was 9!

I'm not shocked about Rumph. But he was the biggest disappointment of all. No recruiting ability and no development.

Bell held his own. Not total waste of money. Not I D1 school will touch the Butter McClusternuss show.

While I agree with you that Nuss sucks, I think he’ll find another job, a lucrative one at that, coaching. One of his buddies, maybe Mac when he lands on his feet, will hire him and pay him well. These guys seem to look out for each other, for better or worse. Or a smaller school with budget constraints will hire him as a HC and pay him $350k per year, which isn’t chump change.

Yet people wanted Mac retained

May I speak with Jim please?

im calling BS on this. A go cart at 9 is like winning the lottery at 35.

Did you just kill that poor plant?

That was Nuss.

Wonder where 222 will land

deserves to be jeered everyday for his time in Gainesville. F!ck Butters. The man is stupid, stubborn, lazy and his wife dressed him funny.
