These are the kinds of names that make me question making a change. I'm all for upgrading, and have been calling for WM's head since 2011. But change, just for the sake of change, is flirting with ut territory. We need to get a real name.

Completely agree. There are about 8 names I'd take tomorrow, otherwise, we need to tread lightly. Guys like Stoops, Franklin, Sumlin, Chip Kelly, Jim Harbaugh are tier 1 guys, Freeze and Mullen are tier 2 guys that I'd take asap. But when we start throwing out names like Schiano, Taggert, or even a Gundy or Dabo Sweeney, I start getting a Tennessee feel.

Uh, I've got a Tennessee feel now and have for nearly two years.

And yet we've beat them 10 years in a row. I don't think we're quite down to Tennessee level yet.

I get that. But we gotta do better than Schiano and Taggert or it'll get worse. And it can get worse.

Honestly man, I really don't think it can. A 4-8 season and losing to an FCS team? Over 100 ranking in offense 4 years in a row? Two straight homecoming losses? Crap recruiting classes? Even these lower-tier guys could do better than that with the resources UF has. It really has been an astoundingly bad run here. NOBODY thought it could get as bad as it has.

Guys, I hate to keep banging this stupid drum, but we have a guy right now that is several tiers below guys like Schiano and Taggert. Either one of those stiffs would be going up several tiers. I'd much rather make a change to one of them than stay with what we've got.

Saying that, I think the Board of Trustees is aiming high this time anyway.

I think taggart and shciano would be a lateral move. Actually I'd rather have muschamp than shciano not only is he a ****ty coach he's a shmuck

Yeah Ox, lets get Taggert to give you another five years of failure to biotch about. Reminds me of your favorite movie ~ Dumb and Dumber. If we are going to fire a failed coach, we better make sure we get someone who can get the job done rather than just an incremental half step forward and half step sideways. Firing a coach to satisfy your indignation is the height of narcissism.

Might as well add 'being cool' to the criteria for finding a new coach. I think many posters on this board would be satisfied with one criteria ~ anybody but Muschamp. I wonder what the collective IQ on here is?

Hey Bull, I'm not doing any of the hiring and firing. Aren't you one of the Foley nutswingers? I figured you have complete faith he'll hire a top-notch guy.

Based on Foley's track record for hiring head football coaches, a selection committee is absolutely necessary.

I heard that someone was fired at the UAA for speaking about Muschamp's future. Anyone hear this or find an article?

If that is true, that story and all the details should be coming out. We need Zack to spit the bit and get the story.
