While the offense is a major concern, what has me worried most is recruiting. According to 247Sports, we only have the 8th most talented roster in the SEC, and that is sure to decline considerably after our Defensive stars go to the NFL after this year. And this current 2017 recruiting class in nowhere near UF standards. Neither was 2016. I gave Mac a pass for 2015 because of the rush, but when your 2016 bump class is that bad? Woof. At least with Zook you knew the man was a demon of a recruiter.
With that said, Mac will probably get next year, even after we finish 6-6 or 7-5 this year. But he won't live to see November. I think the axe will fall sometime in October of next year. And then we'll miss out on a loaded 2018 class that has many kids favoring UF at the moment. So would it be wise to fire him after this year, so the new coach can reel in those 2018 guys? Probably. Hell, the way Mac recruits, who knows if he could even reel in those kids at all? What I would do: fire him this year and try our damnedest to get Tom Herman, Larry Fedora, Justin Fuente or DJ Durkin. All of those four are way better recruiters than Mac. But my dream would be to back up a dump truck full of cash to Dabo Swinney's house and make him say no. I doubt he'd leave Clemson, but my god would be own the state of FL in recruiting.
Just some thoughts, don't post much, hope you guys enjoy. Go Gators!
