Surprised Mac kept his cool when asked about putting Herndon in the game late.

He said in the presser that the defense played very well. I think he'll have a different opinion after watching the tape.
I think they played basically what they were told to play. However it's now pretty clear now that either by design or not we certainly don't have an elite defense. At least at this point, they are far from dominant even against poor opponents.

"30 plus guys didn't have their ankles taped for the first meeting .. 30 plus! Now, before I got here, there was a lot more."

Yup.

I suspect we're going to see a lot of familiar names on the bench on the first play of the next game. They'll go in for the second play, or the second series, but a message will be sent.

You could tell Mac still isn't pleased with Robinson when he was asked about his play last night.

Lol, was Mac pleased about anything? I half expected him to recite the Mora playoffs rant, he was that pissed. It's been brewing since Monday and it came to a head when Taylor made the selfishly bonehead of all penalties, costing his team. Mac once again served notice that this team is on a very short leash.

Robinson could've been flagged multiple times last night. Dude stared down each DB every time he made a catch. He has potential to be one of the best receivers in the SEC, but he needs to get his head out of his ass, quickly.

It will take a while to clean the poo stained walls that Chimp left for us, but McElwain will be the guy to do it.

Yeah, there's a reason why ECU kept hitting Robinson late. I think Robinson was talking s*** all night, and taunting after every catch. That's going to bite us with a stupid penalty sooner or later.

Whatever Mac's gotta do to clean up the BS in that locker room and on the field, I'll go with it.

The sideline tirade was no spur of the moment thing. Mac did that performance for a reason.
In his presser he brought up that it started on Monday when the players not being taped up gave him a sense of what was to come. That tell's me other things happened during the week he didn't bother mentioning. Ox is dead on here. I believe he expected something like this to happen game time and planned it. Kabuki theatre? Sure it was. He was/is trying to send a message this isn't the team dynamic from last year as these are mostly Muschamp's players with that tem persona and its going to take a bit to clean it out. I'm backing Coach Mac all the way here and wondering what the team will look like next week. We're going to lose 4 - 5 ball games guys so its better to deal with it now.

If this were last year the team would be patting themselves on the back for a hard fought win.
Exactly. But a hard fought win with no prospects of getting better with that staff. That's entirely reversed here.....for the time being.

Firefox isn't playing well with streaming video on quite a few sites lately.
