but you're vastly underrating the talent on that side of the ball.

Okay, I get that. But what I said was correct. Most were not 5 star athletes. So that means you have an outstanding defensive coaching staff/philosophy, which had to carry over from Muschamp. As much as he was a complete disaster as a game time coach, he recruited defense like Michaelangelo painted the Sisteen Chapel. He fine tuned that defense and McElwain's DC has put those players in excellent positions to succeed. Which is still baffling to me that you hated Boom so much. He didn't leave the cupboard bare over there. He was like a John Cooper at OSU. Shitty game time coach, but a damn good recruiter. Now at the Plains, they want him gone after one season? Don't be the Cleveland Browns of the South. They get rid of a coach for looking at someone the wrong way.

Okay but we can't help it if fans from other schools and the statistics say they are.

Very few defenses in the country play with "mostly 5 stars". I'm not doing the research on it, but it might be two programs in the country that have 6 five stars or more on their starting D.

I certainly agree that Muschamp did a great job assembling talent, but he was terrible at managing an entire program. He left a lot of talent, sure. But he left gaping voids in RB, LB, OL and QB depth.

I actually don't dislike Boom. I don't particularly like him either but I don't dislike him. I recognize the guy tried his hardest at UF and it just wasn't good enough.
