I remember because I was blasted for being critical of him at the time. He was being called brilliant by many on here for it.Remember when Mac said he wasn't going to tailor the offense to Treon's strengths because he didn't want to sacrifice the development of the other players? Well turns out Mac and Nuss probably didn't know how to tailor the offense to Treon's strengths. Signs of things to come.
We give you tons of crap, but we love ya buddy!A combination of Gainesville ramping up for home games keeping me busy and wanting to avoid thinking about that disaster in Dallas has kept me away from the boards. However, I'm not going anywhere. You guys are stuck with me.
Well he is probablyl right. They havent gotten larger and dont look stronger.I see this much differently. Mac is completely out of ideas on how to make this team successful and realizes his days are truly numbered. This is made clear by the fact that he is blaming our oline's issues on their lack of strength. He's grasping at straws at this point and is looking for every excuse in the book besides the coaching staff, which is at the root of our teams issues.
Well, it is all to the heart of the matter, right? Our recruiting is poor, our S&C is poor, our player development is poor, our game planni g is poor, our in game adjustments are poor.Hits to the heart of the matter.
Im hard pressed to find a strength of this coach and his staff or any area in which this staff is competent.

For sure. But you've got to have the horses and we got more ponies, it would seem, in Mac's previous recruiting cycles (and beyond). In the trenches, as you have noted, is where it hurts the most and seems like it's going on eight years or so where we're getting our milk money stolen on the playground. I don't mean to be insulting to our kids, but like one old coach said, you can't make chicken salad out of chicken sh!t. Until we start consistently getting a cluster of linemen that come in with adequate strength measurables and physical development, along with a good football foundation (technique, confidence, desire, etc.), we will continue to be a year or two away.Well, it is all to the heart of the matter, right?

It is amazing Fooley failed this catastrophically. He has outdone himself.
I'm guessing 75-80 percent of the 18/19 commitments end up somewhere else.Come on man, I'm off the Mac train now, but we have to be fair. The current 2018 and 2019 classes seem to be outstanding, so the most current version of our UF football staff is at least doing that well...now...
Until their names have been signed in ink, faxed to the staff, and they have received their ncaa and university clearance to enroll, those lists don't mean squat. It's why some of us were giving attaboys to the staff a few weeks back but also saying lets not start having pool parties and victory celebrations about it either. We were clearly saying that regardless of who has given a pledge, there's a long season before signing, and if the season tanks, some of those prospects will turn elsewhere. This IS being fair. It's also being honest. Get ready...Come on man, I'm off the Mac train now, but we have to be fair.

I think he hurt his chances as soon as he showcased our offense. The same fear a lot of us had even before opening kickoff. Unless we see a dramatically different team from here on out (and lets be real, we wont), his butt is going to be fired anyway.I think Mac hurt his chances with Corrall using the quick hook on Franks on Saturday. If I'm Corrall and I look at how quickly franks got the hook after being named the starter, not being allowed to battle through adversity. I might start wonder if the same would happen to me, and if there are better opportunities.

See my last phrase for the good news.We need to have good news going forward.
Very true. He "knows" what he "knows" and once someone fumbles you pull them out of the game. Once you throw your 10ish passes, you run. It just is the way you play Saban football.unless we see a dramatically different team from here on out (and lets be real, we wont), his butt is going to be fired anyway.
