@RobbieAndreu: McElwain: really excited about the win and overcoming some things we've got to get adjusted.
@RobbieAndreu: "As you can tell, I'm a passionate guy," McElwain said. "There are things we can't do to hurt ourselves. They've been addressed."
@GatorsScott: McElwain says he is a real passionate guy, an emotional guy. Saw some real teachable moments vs. ECU.
@gatorhoops: McElwain -- "Our guys played their tails off, that was good to see." #Gators
@GatorsChris: McElwain: I make mistakes, we all make mistakes. It's about evaluating. #Gators
@GatorsScott: Mac: “Sometimes you’ve got to win that way. Defensively, there were some great efforts. Bullard really showed up."
@LandonWatnick: McElwain praises defensive line, said Bullard stepped up. Gives nod to secondary to playing a lot of snaps with Hargreaves out.
@GatorsScott: “We had some really bright spots up there.’’ Mac on OL … singles out F. Johnson and D. Sharpe
@AlligatorArmy: McElwain says Quincy Wilson was in "really good position" on ECU's first TD. ECU WR just "went up and got a rebound," per McElwain.
@GatorsScott: “The quarterbacks, just played OK.’’ Says team must work on ball security issues, unforced errors in red zone.
@osgators: Mac said LB Alex Anzalone will have shoulder examined. CB Vernon Hargreaves (leg) questionable.
@GatorsScott: “We are going to try and get him out there in some drills this week and see where that knee is.†— Mac on OL Martez Ivey
@osgators: Mac said S Keanu Neal (leg) will be 'ready to roll' after missing first two games.
@J_McPherson1126: Mac: "In case you haven't figured it out, I'm a pretty passionate guy, pretty emotional guy." #Gators
@AlligatorArmy: Injuries continued: Ivey: "We're going to try to get him out there in some drills this week." Neal: "Ready to roll." Sherit: Foot, but OK.

@J_McPherson1126: Mac: "Offensively, I thought their defensive line took it to us a little bit." Said Fred Johnson, David Sharpe stood out at tackle. #Gators
@ZachAbolverdi: McElwain says Neal is back, Ivey will practice. Status of Anzalone's shoulder is unknown. VH3 questionable. Case Harrison has thumb injury.
@RobbieAndreu: "Each year they're getting a little bit better," McElwain on Kentucky.
@GatorsScott: McElwain very complimentary of Kentucky’s offense, especially QB Patrick Towles. “I look at this as a heck of a challenge."
@RobbieAndreu: McElwain said he's not sure if he's ready to name a starter. Both probably will play again Saturday.
@GatorsScott: McElwain says he stayed up all night and re-evaluated everything the QBs have done. He can envision both playing again this week.
@LandonWatnick: McElwain on viral sideline tirade video: "There's lessons that even I learned."
@AlligatorArmy: McElwain on tirade going viral: "Rightfully so." "There's lessons even I learned," but "unforced errors are something we can't do."
@onlygators: McElwain on yelling at Kelvin Taylor: "I'm not proud of it and neither is my mother, 94 yo. I got an earful from her, too, & rightfully so."
@RobbieAndreu: "I don't feel good about it. This is a very public job. I know I have a long way to go," McElwain said.
@AlligatorArmy: McElwain on Grier's inaccuracy: "A couple of throws that Bob Uecker might have had fun with."
@GatorsScott: “The frustrating part is we had really made some strides.’’ — Mac on the undisciplined penalties that caused his frustration Saturday
@Morgan_Moriarty: McElwain "I don't feel good about it" Adds that Gators "can't hurt themselves" No formal apology, as expected, at least for me

@osgators: Mac liked Jarrad Davis' decision to tackle Alex McCalister. Said ECU RB could have chased AM down and popped ball loose.
@onlygators: "Am I proud of it? Absolutely not. Do I feel bad about it? Yes. I have mistakes as well, have to learn about it and move forward." - Mac
@RobbieAndreu: McElwain said fewer players likely will be in the playing rotation now that the Gators are heading into SEC play.
@GatorsScott: Mac said offensive rotation likely to shrink on offense as season progresses; defensive rotation will remain more expanded to stay fresh.
@RobbieAndreu: "We'll still rotate the running backs like we have. KT will carry the bigger burden of everything," McElwain said.
@RobbieAndreu: McElwain said he loves the passion that Kelvin Taylor plays with.
@AlligatorArmy: McElwain says Kelvin Taylor is lead back in three-back rotation, but wants to keep him fresh. "We can't beat him up."
@AndrewSpiveyGC: Mac says that he thought Jordan Cronkrite did a good job and says that Scarlett has to understand ball security.
@osgators: Mac on focus on KT blowup the week of SEC opener: 'It is kind of interesting, but that's the life we live now. Everything is public.'
@AndrewSpiveyGC: Mac not blaming the quarterbacks for everything but saying the other 10 have to get better.
@GatorsScott: “Those guys are going to have to play a bunch more reps. It may mean a little more dime at times.’’ — Mac on LBs without Anzalone
@AndrewSpiveyGC: Mac says that Daniel McMillian will get more time but that Florida may go to more Dime in third down situations.
@osgators: Mac on D-Rob: 'I thought he played consistently and played with some speed and tempo.'
@osgators: Mac: 'Look, I give everything for these guys.' Said went into coaching to help young men develop. 'This is fun group to be around.'
@AlligatorArmy: McElwain on coaching, relationship with players: "We try to treat 'em like they're our own."
@AndrewSpiveyGC: Mac says they're still finding their selves offensively
@J_McPherson1126: McElwain on the two Jordans (Scarlett and Cronkrite): "They both came in expecting to play. And they haven't disappointed." #Gators
@RobbieAndreu: McElwain said he's had a great conversation with Kelvin Taylor about how hard he played in the game.
@osgators: Mac on fiery temperament: 'My dad let me know when I wasn't ... you know, when I was growing up.'
@AlligatorArmy: McElwain attributes "fiery" style to his own father, other coaches. "I'm not saying it's right."
@onlygators: "We talked about how hard he played. We talked about the lessons. And I hugged him, just like I did after the incident happened." Mac on KT
@AndrewSpiveyGC: Mac said that he talked to Kelvin Taylor and that it went great. He said he hugged him and everything is great.
@ZachAbolverdi: With Alex Anzalone out, McElwain says grad transfer Anthony Harrell could see playing time at LB.
@AlligatorArmy: McElwain says, despite Austin Hardin's two missed field goals, he has "total confidence in him."

@osgators: 'I think there was good communication. We were late in the footwork part of it,' Mac on the O-line's growth from Week 1 to 2.
@GatorsScott: “We are obviously a better team with them playing.’’ — McElwain on return of DL Alex McCalister and S Marcus Maye last week
@ZachAbolverdi: McElwain says he played two quarterbacks in 1986, 1989 and 1996. "Mixed bag of results."
@NickdelaTorreGC: MACism: "Sometimes you've got to touch the hot stove and it's gotta burn a little bit to really learn."
@osgators: "He's a guy we knew is important to the team based on how hard he plays. His play really showed up,' On LB Jarrad Davis seizing opportunity.
@ZachAbolverdi: McElwain on Ahmad Fulwood running over East Carolina DB: "That was great. We need him."
@onlygators: Florida #Gators WR Latroy Pittman will return from his two-game suspension this week at Kentucky.
