Which of these two possible scenarios would you rather see come to fruition? Win the SEC East and beat Georgia is the obvious answer, but let's say it is not an option in this hypothetical.

Agreed. He'll be retained even if we lose out. Hopeless feeling, but as long as Foley thinks he's a great coach we just have to bend over and take it. Machen's retiring, so it's not like he's going to step in and put a merciful end to this lunacy. He checked out long ago..GatorJ;n73287 said:I think Foley gives him another year regardless. It was injuries that gave him latitude last year. It wil be the Treon issue that does it this year.
PhD Gator;n73163 said:I think in that scenario we end up keeping him due to the decent record and the excuse of what happened with Harris (especially if we win our bowl). It becomes even more interesting in the exact same scenario, but with a loss to FSU. Has no impact on the fact we would be in Atlanta, but assuming we lose in Atlanta, we would be sitting at 7-5 going in to the bowl game. If we lose the bowl game, we would have won the East, but still finish the year 7-6 and you have to imagine he is canned. But, if we win the bowl, we are 8-5 and have an East title and a bowl win. Lots of crazy scenarios that could occur.

Swamped Gator;n73311 said:Muschamp absolutely can NOT get a pass based on the Harris situation. He was too dumb to start him from day one. The only reason Harris won the job is because Muschamp's wonder kid Driskel performed terribly over and over again.. Muschamp might have gotten a pass if he had named Harris the starter at the beginning of the season. Gator fans have been calling for Harris since the Kentucky game and Muschamp refused. He finally plays the kid and he leads a comeback.
