I think they're 3 possible outcomes of the debacle in G'ville
Scenario 1 - Keep everything the same and go forward, hoping next year we stay relatively injury free and see what happens. To me this would be suicide, the fan base would be totally negative and one lose next year and all hell would break loose..remember we open the SEC schedule next year @home vs Kentucky.then in order we play @Bama, @Tennessee, @home vs LSU, @home vs Missouri and then Georgia..you need everything working in a positive direction to have any chance with that schedule, keeping the same coaches would be a total disaster... Scenario 2- keep Muschamp and replace assistant coaches...to me this is the most likely scenario..Pease and Davis the OL coach have to be gone.we can't win in the SEC without a credible passing game.the offensive philosophy must change.I agree with Bianchi, go get Kerwin Bell and totally revamp the passing game.My candidate for the OL job would Jimmy Ray Stephens, he's not coaching right now that I know of and he is someone that we know had success at UF..If you bring in Kerwin Bell and Jimmy Ray Stephens, it would be a circling of the wagons kind of move, which is what I think we need..we don't need to spend crazy amounts of money to get a "big name" offensive coordinator, we need someone who loves UF and who is not looking for a quick payday and moving on to their next job.. Scenario 3 - Fire Muschamp and his entire staff and start over...probably not going to happen...You have to believe that Jeremy Foley and Muschamp have had conversations what is going to happen after the season..and what changes will be made..the only scenario I can see where Muschamp gets fired, is if he refuses to make changes, at which point he would have to be fired...

The head coach who is supposed to be an defensive genius has put an average to mediocre product on the field that checks up short at critical times. The special teams ain't so special and there is an overall lack of discipline and self control across the board. In other words imo this isn't the type of problem you fix by firing a couple of assistants. Losing to Vanderbilt has turned up heat on Muschamp Florida head coach must fire offensive coordinator to try and save his own job Mike BianchiSPORTS COMMENTARY 7:02 p.m. EST, November 9, 2013 GAINESVILLE - This was absolutely Zookian in nature.

Can he survive what will be a massive home beat-down from powerhouse <http://www.orlandosentinel.com/topic/education/florida-state-university-ORE DU000030.topic> Florida State to end the most miserable season in the modern history of the program he grew up idolizing? But there was some good news: Vandy just saved the Gators a trip to Shreveport. I have written that Muschamp, who won 11 games last year, should get another year to try to get his program back on track, but losing to Vandy might well have turned his coaching hot seat into an electric chair. To save his own job, Muschamp needs to fire offensive coordinator Brent Pease by the time he holds his weekly news conference Monday. "I'm a lot harder on myself than y'all or anyone else in Gator Nation is going to be," Muschamp said when questioned about his job security and fan unrest. "I need to do to be better, and I don't need to hear any fan from the outside telling me what we need to do with this football team. I can assure you of that. . I'm a competitor. I don't like losing. I certainly don't like the product we are putting on the field, and that's my responsibility. "I'm not asking for anybody to be happy. I'm not asking anybody to give us a pass. This is the real deal. This is the <http://www.orlandosentinel.com/topic/education/colleges-universities/univer sity-of-florida-OREDU0000153.topic> University of Florida. I'll guarantee you my expectation is as high or higher than anyone sitting in those stands." Painted on the wall behind in the team meeting room where Muschamp spoke was the motivational message:"Create An Edge. Be The Edge." On Saturday, the Gators fell off the edge. And Gator fans are ready to jump off the ledge. Muschamp better quickly do something to appease the fractured fan base. If he survives, he should go hire former UF quarterback Kerwin Bell - the passing-game guru and head coach at Jacksonville University - to be his offensive coordinator. Bell has the nation's No. 9-ranked FCS offense - and he's at a non-scholarship program. Or instead of an Honorary Mr. Two Bits at every game, maybe the Gators should have an Honorary Offensive Coordinator. This year, Florida's offense is ranked 110th in the country. Injuries or no injuries, that's inexcusable. Committing four turnovers and scoring only two touchdowns on Vanderbilt's pitiful defense is equally unacceptable. Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley has said Muschamp's job is safe, but that was a couple of weeks ago. That was before the Gators lost to Vanderbilt at home for the first time since 1945. That's right, 1945 . when Jackie Robinson was still in the minors, <http://www.orlandosentinel.com/topic/politics/fidel-castro-PECLB000910.topi c> Fidel Castro was studying law at Havana University, U.S. Marines secured Iwo Jima, 10-year-old Elvis Presley finished fifth in a singing contest at a county fair in Mississippi and Steve Spurrier was six months old, throwing his pacifier across his playpen and completing passes to his teddy bear. Even at that age, Spurrier could coordinate an offense more complex than Florida's rudimentary attack of today. When Spurrier coached the Gators, the offense was called the Fun 'N Gun. Now it's called, The Fun Is Done. Spurrier named the Swamp, and Vanderbilt drained it. On Homecoming. Or should we say Home Leaving? Fans were booing and leaving the stadium at the outset of the fourth quarter with Vandy leading 31-10. This Gator offense has it backward. It is supposed to take the road crowd out of the game; not the home crowd. After losing to Georgia last week, Muschamp got into a verbal altercation with a UF fan as he left the field. After losing to Vandy, he said fans have a right to say whatever they want. And are they ever. Said Chris Andres, a Gator fan from Deltona as he filed out of the stadium Saturday: "When I get home, I'm going to start up a website - BringBackZook.com." <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected]. -- -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GatorNews" group.
