9 wins in the regular season is pretty widely seen as the minimum that would keep his job and that would require Florida have a great offense. Atlanta has been bandied about a bit.
Also I don't think people realize just how bad Muschamp's tenure has been-- outside of the Muschamp years Florida has never won less than 7 games in the regular season in the modern SEC-- not even under Zook, Boom's done that twice.
It's sad in a way because if Florida could have hired the Muschamp they're going to fire I think he'd be a decent choice, but the fact remains he was a horrible choice and now he's either learned his lesson and is going to the spread option way too late to save his job or he's flailing around trying to make it look like he's doing something.
His problem is two-fold:
1) He's essentially Florida's Rich Rodriguez- a guy who might be a good coach but is a massive misfit with the culture of the program, that is to say, Florida doesn't fit a power run Bama style program and half the fanbase hated watching it even when it was "working" in 2012 (the season while decent isn't exactly looked back on fondly it was painful to watch most of the time).
2) He was nowhere near ready to take a Florida level job and needed to fail somewhere else first to work out the kinks in his system.

Good post. Ultimately, he'll be fine if he wins. That's the bottom line.
