Exactly my point... he did not admonish privately. He made it very public for
a very good reason and it was very intentionally done that way. That is not at
all how Muschamp did it... his ranting and raving were very personally
directed, almost attacking, while this was done in a manner which puts the team
into perspective.
I saw that tweet as well... it further underscores that McElwain made his point
and it was properly done and received.
Changing the subject... Who starts this week against UK?

Scott, the reason the team was surrounding Taylor was that Coach Mac called
them together. He started by having Taylor look at everyone his action had
hurt.
I saw a tweet by Tayor today. He affirmed that Mac is a great coach and was
just trying to make him a better man. It may be that he got the message.

Kinda upset? Do you think it was unwarranted? Do you think he was out of line?
If my players blatantly disobeyed or did something I specifically said not to
do, they could probably expect the same... This is not care bear football.
These are athletes in which the university has greatly invested in or is
willing to do so. If they can't hack it, or the parents can't, maybe they
should go.
I coach football. I expect far more from my players in the locker room than
any joe shmoe fan would ever expect. They are students first, athletes second,
and their responsibility is to their teammates is far before themselves. The
idea that the coach should not be mad or upset or express it is just plain
foreign to me. You wouldn't let your own kids get away with irresponsibility
and disobediance, would you? How would you have him express it?
I found it VERY telling that he did NOT chew him out by himself and isolated.
He was surrounded by a whole bunch of players. So was that a teaching moment
or a made for TV moment? He had a circle of players-- many I did not even
recognize, surrounding Taylor. I imagine it was both moments.
McElwain is building something here. He is changing a culture of a lack of
accountability. He held a star to a higher standard in front of a group of
players. While I normally subscribe to the "praise in public, admonish in
private", that was a very public and teachable moment-- for Taylor and the
whole team and nation. That is NOT what the Gators represent. He is trying to
show that-- to parents, to recruits, to fans....
To not come down hard on Taylor condones it... I have no problem with
McElwain's handling of the situation. If it was not "made of TV", then why was
Taylor in the next series? There is more to this than meets the eye...
Look big picture.

Unfortunately all the players except the true freshmen have witnessed ranting
and raving first hand the past few years. I was kind of disappointed in coach's
behavior on the sidelines. Hopefully imo he can figure out a way going forward
to correct the problem.

The way he chewed out Kelvin Taylor after the "slashing" personal foul after
the TD shows how angry he was at the entire team play. They better get it
together going into the meat of the season, starting next week!!!

watch Mac’s post game talk. He is seething and very, very disturbed to the
point of being near speechless. The offending players are going to have to make
a decision NOW or they’re done, gone, maybe even off the team. This looks
really ugly. Hopefully he will have the strength to hold back physically. Looks
like a bit more of a tweak and he could snap.
