Can a knowledgeable poster explain how Meyer left the cupboard bare?
UF's recruiting rankings:
07: #1
08: #3
09: #11
10: #2
Was it attrition? Poor recruiting to fill needs? I don't think I've ever seen it explained. TIA.
This has been my thing for a while -- he did leave the cupboard bare......
If you use a pro-style offense. Since none of the players were actually fit for that offense. For whatever reason he had a hard on for that philosophy from the very beginning without realizing that Florida hasn't been a pro-style team or recruited that way for over something like 30 years.
A lot of Florida fans love to blame everything on Meyer -- who made us relevant again. Muschamp just wasn't that smart of a dude coming into the program and thought things were going to go a lot different.
Unfortunately, having never played, coached or dealt with an offense his philosophy gave us the worst year we've had in a long time.

Knowing as little as do about Florida, this sounds like a very plausible explanation for how last year unfolded.
Muschamp will probably go back to being defensive coordinator after all is said and done in Gainesville. One has to wonder what Texas would look like right now if Muschamp had stuck around to succeed Mack.
