It looks like something happended to Ole Miss last night, not sure what. Something about Tunsil in a Doomsday Prepper video and getting paid for footballin. I don't know. But there are one too many threads on them so I present this one as a breaker of monotony.
I love the guy as a coach. Seems very comfortable in his own shoes. Exudes confidence and has a sense of humor. To me he's gotta step it up in recruiting in order to take it to the next level. Not sure what's going on there. But as a pure coach I think he's awesome.
So what's your opinion? I know bad teeth and all but other than that.
Did he meet or exceed general expectations last year? Was our mild success prior to Grieroids as sign of things to come or a flash in the pan?
What to you expect going forward?
TIA for all of your polite and respectable answers!

Other than eating too much butter, he's a pretty good coach.

and thats all I have to say about that

Jury still out on McElwain
Had some impressive wins, but struggled against some pretty bad teams. Vandy, FAU, Kentucky.
Getting hammered by Michigan doesn't help either

I think the jury is still out on him, and no one can feel too confident one way or the other yet. I think I was like most people that were caught off guard and surprised how good Florida looked early, and thought maybe this guy was the real deal.
Then Grier got suspend and Florida sputtered the rest of the year and looked terrible. 2 points against Florida St. Struggled to win against our terrible team. Barely beat Vandy and Florida Atlantic. Made Michigan look like the Green Bay Packers. I would be incredibly distressed by the way the year ended if I was a Florida fan.
We all know QB can make all the difference in the world, but that drastic a regression off of one guy leaving is hard to explain. Maybe it was just Harris being that bad, but still a great coach should have been able to make some changes to scheme to make them more proficient. I don't know how anyone can really be sold one way or the other yet. This season will tell us a lot about him.

I'm a big fan of McElwain. I think he will do well at Florida. Think he will do great without a potato at qb.

Let's see what he does without a roided QB. Jury is very much still out.

Seems to be a good coach so far. He could be great. Way to early to tell though. I used to think Gus was a good coach too.
