Grantham STAYING; assistant coach hires & fires

[FireFoley]

Not sure who this Tyson douchebag is, but he is entitled to his opinion. If he wants to make the argument that Cousin Eddie is an elite play called b/c of the total points scored this season, fine, but I disagree b/c elite play callers do not run QB power 2 plays in a row with a QB who had concrete boots for wheels. Being an elite game planner goes way beyond offense. And calling Cousin Eddie a very good head coach is laughable. Week after week after week, the guys who break down tape cite simple, double digit mistakes that are directly assigned to coaching. And if you are the HC, those mistakes fall squarely on the HC.

@AlligatorArmy: Reports: Florida to replace defensive assistants, "unlikely" to replace DC Todd Grantham. Reports: Florida to replace defensive assistants, keep Todd Grantham

This says T-Rob as DB coach and Co-coordinator (what he would demand).

PLEASE NO! He is nothing more than a recruiter.

Please football gods, let the NFL fire some more coaches after Sunday, and let some dumb owner hire this idiot. Amen.

Dan is just setting himself up for next years scape goat. That will be Todd. My guess is Dan will can Todd at the end of next year. That will get Dan to the 22 season and another $6M+. If he can somehow go 9-3 in 22, he'll probably get one more shot in 23 and get fired then after another loss to Kirby. If he loses 4 or more in 22, he'll get the boot then.

Our offense is 5x better than Lame's ...

Not for long.

We are back to sideways 20 ish points.

He’ll never get hired by the NFL – but if he did…

Imagine if he got hired by a team and his GM drafted Trask. How funny would that be?

I think that would be his nightmare.

any sub-.500 year would speed up the process

 

[UFHealthGator]

Wait.... did he fire Torrian Gray?!?!?

Agreed. I just don't see that happening.

You say that like it's a bad thing. This staff desperately needs elite recruiters.

 

[soflagator]

Imo, from what I know, no. Gray was looking to leave and did so of his own accord. Doesn’t diminish blame if he wasn’t meshing with Grantham, just don’t think he was Mullen that made this call.

Wow so it is confirmed he left?

 

[Musclepug]

I've heard gray and Beemer are pals and he's heading to usc

 

[soflagator]

I’ve been saying there is a very good chance he was gone for a few weeks, just based on knowledge. He has definitely confirmed to people I know that he’s intending to leave and has taken steps that support that.

 

[MJMGator]

Every one of the defensive coaches needs to go. Every fuching one of them. They all had a hand in producing the WORST GATOR DEFENSE EVER. If that’s not bad enough, it happened during a year with possibly our most prolific offense of all time.
I still wonder if the administration won’t sign off on firing Slob Grantham because of his buyout or if Mullen is keeping him around by his own choice?

I guarantee he is twice the DC as Fat Slob Todd

Even if he wasn't any better schematically or as a playcaller, his better recruiting would make him an upgrade.

[GatorShea]

What great defensive recruit is dying to be a part of these defensive schemes? I bet there are not any. Gotta improve the coaches to improve the recruiting.

No one is worse.

You could call 4-3 cover 2 nonstop (like Randy Fuchsing Shannon) and be far hetter.
