I thought about making Joker Philips the OC, but IMO, he's just waiting around to get a better job..I would have made him the interim OC, I would have fired Pease during the bye week, just to shake things up.
Texas fired their DC earlier in the year and they are playing better, the Baltimore Ravens fired Cam Cameron late last year and went on to win the Super Bowl, meaning it's been done before with some success. Going forward, I think it would be better to have people who really want to be in G'ville and stay for a while.something I don't think Joker Philips really wants to do.

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.. How about promoting Joker Philips to OC? While we are at it, demote Durkin back to LB coach and hire Randy Shannon away from Arky to be our DC. The coaching would be improved and probably recruiting, as well. -Zeb -- -- 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 "GatorTalk" group.
