Multiple reports: Keeping Muschamp through Georgia game

[dubster1]

J i wouldn't be suprised if he kept his job if we lose out. Hell yea he'd be retained. He'd get a raise and an extension

Ox agreed with me...

Foley can always use the generic excuse "we just need a different direction for the program." Although its way more deeper than that.

If this team were to win out, he should still be gone. It won't look great from an outsider or PR standpoint, but the experiment is over, the jury is in, etc. He should no longer be the head coach at the University of Florida.

I agree that we're so horrid on offense that we have virtually no shot. BUT for argument's sake, if he beats Georgia, Vandy, and Eastern KY, is he retained?

I just can't see keeping him after going 6 - 5. If the games played out the way you suggest, then he'd be 1 - 3 against UGA and 1 - 3 against FSU. Those are our arch rivals and winning one game against each in four tries aint cutting it. Combine that with being only 6 - 5. NO way we keep him.

NOW...if by a MIRACLE he beat uga and fsu then it might be harder to get rid of him...but that's not gonna happen.

Gentlemen, prepare to be butt raped the rest of the season. Im hearing Muschamp will be here well after the Georgia game.

Not defending Foley here by any means but there may be some legal and contract issues at play here we aren't aware of. Foley has to put something together to get rid of this coaching deadwood. You can't just walk into his office and say "get out." Foley should have had then contingency ready since last year but somehow I doubt it. One look at those stands in the 3rd quarter probably made it real to him if it hasn't until then. I usually go to about 3-4 Gator games a year. I haven't been this year or last. Foley better figure that out fast that I'm just one of a growing trend. Maybe by the end of the 70 point blowout by UGA [I think Gurley will be back by then] he'll have his package ready if that's what's holding this up. Let's hope so.....

I'm inclined to agree that there must be something of a contractual nature -- or other behind the scenes business -- that has Foley's hands tied. Otherwise it is just inexplicable!! Somehow Pat Hayden was able to say "get out" to Kiffin on the tarmac.

Love some these Facebook posts from a GatorSports article:

"Muschamp should just record one press conference and play it after every game. We've all been hearing the same BS for 3 1/2 years now."

"If Muschamp is allowed to finish the season, UF will be undergoing a voluntary NCAA Death Penalty without any violations."

And my persona favorite:

"I see he's still here ... I'll check back tomorrow."

All coaches obviously try to do their best at producing a winning team but when it becomes painfully obvious that your best efforts fail to even come close to getting the job done further evalution should cease and a change should be made immediately. That has happened. Nothing more is owed to Muschamp. It's time to cut ties, wish him well and move on to the next chapter. For the life of me I don't understand the indecision anymore. After last year's injury debacle maybe, but not anymore.

It's been going on for awhile. I'm kinda used to it by now.

If by some chance there is a clause or contractual basis that prevents Foley from making a necessary move whenever he deems it necessary, on a first time head coach with no proven track record, then I think the firing should be a 2-for-1.

I don't believe that's the case. Coaches are fired all the time, on a whim. For that matter Fulmer had probably done 3-4 extensions and had tremendous equity established at ut, and they made a decision in the middle of the season. He technically resigned, but was obviously forced out.

After what happened with Zook, you expected differenty?

 

[bradgator2]

We're not going to beat Georgia. We're not going to beat South Carolina. I'm being completely honest here, I don't know if we're even going to be Vandy.

Yep.

And that's all there is to say about that.

Its one thing when its Missouri, its another when its UGAy and FSpew.

Yes, there is no excuse if JF has painted himself in a corner. Publicly saying he would evaluate WM based on the whole season is a bit of a corner-painter, but no one would blame him for retracting that bit of hubris.

dont make any excuses for this shi!, because there is none. fire fooley and his chump now! for the sake of our football program.:headshake:

In other news, Jeremy Foley said Ebola is contained, ISIS is not a threat, and McDonald's workers should get 15/hr.

I wish I had a job like this where I could fail miserably and then just get contract extensions and raises. And then when I completely destroy the company, my boss says he will evaluate me next quarter and think about whether I should stay or not.
