Muschamp for New Defensive Coordinator!

[GatorTom85]

Chump's expertise at recruiting is over rated. He had some success early at Florida when he had the luster of 2 NCs to sell. But as he destroyed the program it became harder for him to sell it. Evidence at USCe where he failed to improve the recruiting. Like Zook, once they moved on to a tougher sell their recruiting became pedestrian. And Chump chased stars not roster needs. That's how we end up without enough OL for a spring game. Or signing Treon Harris at QB that nobody projected at QB in college.
His luster as a DC has waned also. As he turned the offense over to OC's that try to score instead of maximize TOP is defenses have performed worse and worse. Hard to make the defense look good when they actually have to play half the game. And his defenses have always been undisciplined, attracting the wrath of the refs many times a game.
31 to Tennessee; 38 to Florida; 52 to LSU; 48 to Texas A&M; 59 to Ole Miss.
No thank you. I don't want any part of him and looking forward to seeing him fail bigly at a smaller school.

The truly weird thing about Chump's recruiting is that, despite his clear ability to attract truly elite talent, he is only able to do so at certain positions on either side of the ball. What is weirder still is his apparent inability to recruit those other positions at all. The fact that he left us with actual body shortages at OL and LB is astounding especially for a school in the State of Florida! You'd have thought at a minimum he'd have at least gotten some passable 3 and even 2 stars lined up at those positions who could have filled in for some reps instead of creating the gigantic personnel holes he left behind. Seems to have done the same to SC too.

I guess the bottom line is that having Chump as a head coach results in a singularly epic yet tragically predictable fail pattern with such memorable milestones as:

• the "savior" hire fanfare as he comes in to "right the ship" left in "shambles" by his predecessor
• the early bravado after unexpected early success (with an offense that is nearly as painful to watch in success as it is in failure)
• the need to develop tolerance for his ridiculous on the field tantrums and off the field awkwardness with anyone holding a microphone and/or a camera
• the early "recruiting coups" with a couple truly excellent players in a couple of key position groups (but not enough of them to ultimately matter on either side of the ball)
• the middle underperforming years where the team is not entirely bad but not entirely good having some dropped games that felt like they should have been wins
• the mid tier bowl wins providing diminishing levels of false hope for the following year
• the emergence of the "defeat from the jaws of victory" phase that signals the final turn onto the long and hard straightaway toward the inevitable ugly finish
• the unprecedented injury year and its accompanying smoking crater failures
• the final "super choke" season where you can still see the talent on the team but also the holes in personnel and coaching that have clearly derailed it
• the inevitable "support from the AD" messaging phase
• the ultimate Chump ejection phase by an Administration that's finally willing to eat an extreme buyout and the team chaos of a mid-year firing just to finally move on
• the interim coach period of unbridled weirdness
• the aftermath remnant team with a few excellent players on each side of the ball surrounded by whole position groups with inadequate talent and numbers to support them
• the search for a new (sucker) "savior" coach in a desperate attempt to get on the coaching carousel early in the hope of getting a high impact coach that can keep the remaining excellent players from departing

It only now remains to be seen if SC will double down like UF did by hiring an even weirder and arguably more incompetent successor!

I am sooooooo glad he's no longer our problem (except, of course, for the exorbitant buyout that we are likely still paying him... Does he have the be$t agent ever, or what?!?)

Saban is the one person so far who has controlled that idiot.

And he demoted him from DC to position coach then encouraged him to leave.

Im guessing that bridge was burned.

Sounds like Spurrier with Zook! :)

I do believe he could go to bama right now ad in 3 years they would struggle to beat Arky, but thats a separate argument.

He does seem to have a signature failure trend as a DC, too.

As a coordinator he has shown an ability to produce, even with his most "high powered" defenses, a unit that can consistently find a way to blow a couple of key plays late in games that are just enough to help pull off one of his excruciatingly painful "defeat from the jaws of victory" signature moves.

Those are the trends that ultimately endear him so much to his "fans" (and why he now gets paychecks from so many places where it was worth it to them to pay him handsomely just to go away :) ).

Stop smoking crack, or pole, or whatever. Urb went 7-6 his last year here. That #1 rated class was short on players which is why lumpy was short on scholarship players.

Nochamp was a sorry ass coach. Nothing I have posted suggests otherwise. I am just not excusing Meyer quitting on the job coaching ilast year here and the locker room problems he left behind. If the eam was in that great of shape, meyer doesn't leave. He left to protect his brand as he had los control and didn't have a tebow around.

Meyer stayed the extra year after Foley begged him to. Meyer had already checked out and it wasn’t a secret. Don’t blame Meyer for that crap.

May be too late. Lot of smoke now that Muschamp was seen on the UF campus yesterday.

Wait, what? If true, maybe he was just picking up his check from his UF buyout?

 

[ChiefGator]

How about dan quinn if he wants to do something to keep his hand in and have some fun.
