RUMOR: Mac Looking for an out?

[Durty South Swamp]

exactly. Goldkamp said that it was unlikely, but that a job like Oregon would be something he would take. I think he sees he can't keep up in recruiting here and is looking for a way out by blaming the fans.

Blaming the fans is a clear cut sign of a coach in over their head with no answers. This has like next to zero chance of happening though bc what major school would want him? And how much would he owe us if he bolted?

Butters isn't going anywhere, neither is Nuss.

 

[aka]

I understand the frustration but I truly don't understand the personal anger.

 

[williston_gator]

Wow if true. UF would look pretty bad if that happens.

 

[Concrete Helmet]

In all seriousness I would respect him more for leaving than if he stayed. He knows by now that this conference is a meatgrinder and he could leave a 2 time division champion in his only 2 seasons here, which looks great on a resume.

 

[Marianna-FL_Gator]

I have a truck.

I'll help you move his $hit 4 free

Nevada has a job opening as well.

I agree with a few that UF would look bad and this would set us back even further. Plus who are we gonna get? Who wants to come here? On the other hand could we get an established winner coach to take this job?

If the new ad had any sense he'd negotiate a smaler buyout if thats what it took.

First, it would put UF into the stone age if he left. Anyone who says different most likely ate paint chips as a child.

Second, I highly doubt that he uprooted his family to move to Gainesville to he run out of town by a mob of bent fans after FSU. We could have the patriots coaching staff running the show and it wouldn't make up for the fact that our players were out physicaled saturday based on talent.

I kinda hope this happens.

Let's go get Kelly, Fleck or Petrino.....or Gruden

How would UF look bad?

This would be a miracle/blessing for our program.

 

[KronoGator]

Oregon?

It being Oregon is why I don't buy it, they want offense up there and need a strong recruiter, Mac doesn't fit either bill.

Mac wasn't an established winner and still isn't . He's recruiting worse than his transition year. How would this set us back?

 

[cornbread]

in no way does this make uf look bad, every big program has fans just like us, big programs aren't for every coach

 

[Tunaboat]

And how much would he owe us if he bolted?

Zero. And we give him a $200 McDonald's voucher for the trip back home!

 

[MertzJay26]

Enough with the "this will set us back" crap. Have you not noticed that we are being set back every year that our recruiting gets worse under Mac?

A new coach can turn around a program in 1-2 years. Look at Petrino, Fuente, and Herman.

I like Mac and think he's a really good dude, but have lost hope that he's the answer

Probably not, but I get tired of this gator fans are the reason people don't want to come here crap. Every fan base is vocal on social media and its something a coach has to live with. every fan base that has been extremely mediocre and downright pittiful looking for 8 years is going to be extremely vocal on social media until things look better. You want them to shut up then make us look like we wouldn't loose to a high school team some days and recruit better. Muschamp beat the highest of expectations out of most of us for a while, but expecting simple improvements and better recruiting are not something we should be ashamed of expecting.

Now i know how the pumpers feel when T-rex posts .

 

[alcoholica]

So serious question, who would replace him? I must admit, at this point I'm off the Mac Train, so I would be excited for a new coaching search.

 

[bayou gator]

Seriously, who would actually want him?

Umm... I agree... sooo... yeah?
