re: Would you fire Coach Jim McElwain?

would give him more time. He is playing with Muschamp's talent, for the most part. Give him time to get his players in there and see what's what.

That's part of the problem-- if recruiting services have any grounding in reality, McElwain's players are going to be worse than Muschamp's by a decent margin. I don't think people outside of our fanbase get how shitty recruiting is under Mac-- Florida has never finished outside of the top 10 in recruiting for three straight years, not even during 3 year periods where a coach was on the hotseat for a year, then fired the next season, then a new coach took over. Each of Mac's first 3 classes will be worse than the class Muschamp recruited during the 4-8 season.
