CONFIRMED: Will Muschamp has been fired

[OcalaGator83]

I know several folks who are NOT Spurrier worshipers, who are connected with some of the larger donors, and they are convinced SOS is coming back. They are absolutely convinced that what the media has interpreted as "retirement" talk from SOS is actually him laying the groundwork to exit Columbia for Gainesville. I will say that I do not believe it at all, but it has been interesting to hear them say it and they are absolutely convinced its already a done deal.

It's not an unrealistic expectation to have a coach named before the bowl season is over with but I think it'll probably be immediately after.

If they waited that long our class will stay terrible I think.

If that was true Muschamp might stay here as DC.

It's about time. I commend him for cleaning up the off the field issues urban left behind and I really think the guy put his whole heart into this program it just did not work out. I wish him luck wherever he goes, hope it's outside of the SEC east.

Agreed. I am happy about the the trouble with the law being gone and having some semblance of a Team though he about lost that too by keeping JD as the leader for too darn long...

I like McMurphy's comment...."If you aren't competing for a National Championship, you're not going to be there very long."

I don't see it happening, though it would amount to an immediate and huge upgrade. Just don't think Foley looks down that avenue.

I agree but if we get a coach playing in a somewhat major bowl game I highly doubt they'd announce anything publicly before it's over. Unless it's an OC. That happens pretty frequently.

Spurrier did not like the grind of recruiting when he was here in his prime. He certainly at this stage in his life is not going to want to grind to get recruits against F$U and Miamuh. No thanks.

 

[GatorInKnox]

Stoops would be the one that an early announcement would probably come like it did with Meyer - out of the major school head coaches anyway..

If there was a major coach where there'd be an early announcement it'd be him. Not playing in a high profile bowl game, etc.

 

[ATXGator]

I don't see it happening either. I actually see him hiring WM as defensive coordinator and WM becomes head coach in waiting (unoffically) and learns offense from SOS.

I don't either. Just reporting what I have heard, they don't claim to have any insider information or anything.

@APMarkLong: Gators owe coach Will Muschamp a little more than $6 million thanks to two contract extensions & a raise

 

[dphgator96]

I did not think I would hear the Alert Tone on my phone until Monday......what a pleasant surprise. Who else grabbed their phone every time an alert was sounded and hoped for this news?
Looking forward to the Alert Tone that names our next coach.

I really think Stoops is the guy, and with Oklahoma out of the national picture, we could have an announcement sooner than you may think. He's 15 years stale in Norman, a safe hire, has a history with this program, and would probably welcome a change. Gator Nation would welcome him with open arms.

I don't either. Just reporting what I have heard, they don't claim to have any insider information or anything.

Hey man, you can take the bag off your head now...

Won't happen. Ego

No, I don't think so because he is "stepping down".

Make no mistake, he's getting his buyout.
