In the chat room they are speculating that I am sad to see Mac gone. Good grief! One would have to be brain dead to want Mac kept after the death threat episode.
Late to the party. Michigan game. I thought him continuing to win close games must mean he was at least a good on field coach. The last forlorn hope disappeared with LSU.
Brad, you have every right to enjoy my tardiness. But keep it real. Considering the fact that I may be the only honest poster on the board, making fun of the truth should be sufficient without making crap up.

I agree that it was a few weeks ago. Pretty much what I said. I defended and excused the guy up until a few weeks ago. The Michigan game was my uh-oh moment and the LSU game extinguished the last hope. You call it pumping, I don't. Remember that I have lived long enough to see fans blame the OC when they actually had no clue.2 years too late and a dollar short.
I don't buy it AR. You were pumping this clown up until literally a few weeks ago.....
That is not what I claimed. That was the moment I first feared my faith was misplaced. I should have allowed for the low reading comprehension on the board and been more explicit.I dont take joy in when anybody realized that Mac needed to go. Some were way earlier than others. There are even a few who still do not think he should be fired. It's just an opinion.
But to claim that you were ready for Mac to be fired after the Michigan game is laughable.

My ire is now aimed at Foley. How can he be this bad of a judge of coaching talent, again and again? I was high on Mac at the beginning, cool guy, no socks ever, spent his own money to help buy out his contract at C-State. This year has been shocking as his total ineptitude as a coach has been laid out for all to see. No fire in himself or his players. Not much will to win, especially if the other team has one. No game management, no halftime (or any) adjustments, no sideline coaching. Shyte recruiting. And he seems happy with all of it. No mental problem mailing in losses instead of making changes to right the ship. He's making millions for not even trying to do his job and we all know it now. Does anyone think this Phuktard will turn into a butterfly next year and soar? We could waste another 4 years waiting for him to be a real coach and we will be competing with whoever the current bottom feeder is to avoid being last in the SECE in 2020. Cut the damage short and fire him now. He just has no skill for this job. Thanks Foley.
I was very interested in the Mac Era but when he blew up on Kelvin Taylor against East Carolina after a stupid penalty, I thought that it was disturbing. To discipline is one thing, but to make yourself the center of attention at the expense of your player is another.
Spurrier would toss the visor and holler, for sure, and I do not think it was his best attribute as a coach, just as giving up and punting on 3rd and a million against MSU one game was not as well, but there were a million positives to go with that.
I can't recall Spurrier ever taking the time to do what Mac did on there, maybe I'm wrong, but it was the uh-oh moment for me as a fan that this guy wasn't going to be the cool, calm hand on the wheel to take us back to the top.
What was your uh-oh moment?
