Ogre just embarrassing UF.

@RossDellenger: #LSU is finalizing a deal to hire Miami DC Blake Baker to join the staff to coach linebackers, sources tell @SINow.

Baker, a former Tulane linebacker, has stops at Texas as a GA and Louisiana Tech as DC.

Outside of the people on chatter all I read and hear are gator fans gushing over how Mullen has turned the program around. Obviously these people are either misinformed or have very low expectations..
Same fuchsing idiots who said WE WUZ GON KICK IN THE DOOR AT ATLANTA AND OFFENSIVE EXPLOOOOOOOSHUN WUZ COMIN? W Butters?

And assured us that Pat Drooley knew Sharkie wasnt getting fired?

Then blame all of Cousin Eddie's warts and lack of recruiting on Sharkie?

THOSE people?

I believed this up until a few weeks ago. But with him keeping Grantham, no extensions and both the admin and Mullen being completely quiet about the "NFL" rumors I think he's got 1 foot out the door.
.
No extensions is the key.

... and by putting your best foot forward, we're left with his worst foot.

If the attitude in admin stays the same, it will be rinse/ repeat no matter who is giving the ****ty press conferences.

With the show cause situation, and I may be wrong, but I don’t think the Admins could offer a contract extension until the last quarter of this contract per NCAA.

Meyer had the support of Machen and it was before the “arms race” started. It was a different time.
A smart up and comer would be wise to pick some where he has the full support of the school. Maybe that’s UF and maybe it is not. I truly have no idea.

Seriously, anyone who tries to justify their decision to attend scUM over literally any other school isn’t someone who you wanted to begin with.

I get it, it’s hate on Mullen time. But this is a bridge too far. :lol:

so you mean on the Swamp Ass? Dude, they literally fawn over every hire. Right now they are claiming whomever we stole from USF is the best recruiter on the planet.

They hate GC and 247 also, because none of us know how great our coaches always are.

Crazy that of my football teams I now feel much more confident in my Jags with Meyer than I do my Gators. Wild times.
Hell, at this point I feel more confident in Mike White than Mullinz. I don't get all this "Mullinz's greatness is being hamstrung by admin, yo!" It looks like the most likely explanation is the simplest; he's a mediocre head coach, and poor at player and staff management. He is what his 12 year record as a head coach says he is. And on top of that he's a mf'ing peckerhead.

Ok, with Bowman and Gilbert, I think the O is going to be pretty stout considering Jones, Wright, Shorter, Henderson, Gamble, Copeland and Whittemore. OL, as usual, could def be upgraded, but now that we got the mobile QB that Dan wants the OL looks better.

With Carter staying and pick up of Newkirk and Sheldon, the DL is now actually in a good spot. We still don't really have any depth at LB nor any great LBs. DBs are suspect as well with only Elam looking solid.

Next season looks a little better but we still got Grantham as a known commodity of crap and a couple new young unknowns coaching.
