As pissed as everyone was about the D, an argument could have been made to give the guy another year, jmo.

I was also of this position. Maybe he still has a job if Muschamp is on the staff and you see an exodus of coordinators. I would have been fine with this.

At some point Malzahn has to learn how to run his offense without putting unrealistic expectations on the defense . Playing situational football and flipping field position can win a game. Gus spent the season trying to outscore opponents and it blew up in his face right until the very end.

I think Ellis still has a job if Muschamp isn't a free agent or wasn't interested. The Muschamp to Auburn thing was likely being worked out weeks before he actually lost the Florida job.

If Muschamp said no or stayed on at FL, not sure we fire Ellis.

I don't think Ellis was fired necessarily for incompetence, Gus just felt a better option was available and I won't fault that.
