My issue with Twitter is any Gators fan or booster can use the platform to "report" Jim McElwain will be fired. By waiting for a source such as ESPN, I can be sure it wasn't fake news. NFL.com reported UF and Jim McElwain mutually agreed to part ways. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000...-part-ways

Lane kiffin currently the favorite.
Coughlin when asked if winning will be a focus: "What the hell else is there? This is nice and dandy, but winning is what all this is about."

Chip Kelly is the only veteran guy I would be happy with. Plz no to Mullen or Stoops or whoever else.
Any of Frost, Campbell, or Norvell would be fun options other than Kelly too.
Not impressed with Chip Kelly at all, plus I think he wants another shot at the nfl. Stoops isn’t interested in coaching anymore and Mullen is just meh for me.

I learned the truth here: Quote:"We want to thank coach McElwain for his efforts in leading the Gator football program," Stricklin said in a statement released by the school. "We are confident coach Shannon will provide the proper guidance to the players and rest of staff during this time and we will begin a national search for the next head coach." http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000...-part-ways Read the bold text twice. It proves my suspicion that UF will not search for a coach before firing the current one was correct.

You mean the same guy who said they weren’t in talks to buy out the contract of the guy they bought out less than 24hrs later? You really can’t be that naive. https://www.seccountry.com/florida/flori...out-rumors You go ahead and believe they don’t already have a list of names they’re looking at. And I’ve got some ocean front land to sell you in Arizona.

The only problem I have with this is what someone brought up in that thread later on which is he's locked in with MSU til 2021 making good money there, so I wouldn't think there would be much truth to that rumor... but then again I'm sure crazier things have happened before. I want Chip Kelly, that's it.

You guys are still not getting it. If UF was already looking at names, why did the AD say they will begin the search when he made the announcement?

Talk about an ungraceful exit. The rumors that Prosser and Hicken were talking about this morning were that Mcelwain talked to his agent about devising an exit plan to leave Florida. If that was the case, they shouldn't pay him a penny of that buyout clause. If you want to leave the job you don't deserve anything.
You weren't let go, you weren't fired, you quit. I did tell my wife that if Florida hires Scott Frost we would get divorced.

She refuses to want to understand or listen to what other people are telling her. I try to be patient, but times like these are when I'm truly not sure what is actually going on here. |
