We were weak at every offensive position when Mac rolled in. Thanks to him we have a handful of potentially decent QBs and another one on the way, a star receiver, plus some young receivers that could be stars, a stable of quality backs, a stud kicker, and the last brick is the hardest, the OL. Which we've got one of his guys Jawaan Taylor out there as a damn true freshman at tackle playing at a respectable level.


Thank you. I've said it over and over again.

He had no OL, the hardest part of a team to build to be consistent.

No name receivers who didn't produce.

A lone tailback who wouldn't have been starting this year. (Scarlett is better.)

No kicker.

A slot receiver playing quarterback after Grier left.

What these guys don't understand is that we're a year away minimum. It's going to be a hard, difficult, uphill battle to replace what we've lost.

I really don't know how these people can say ''this looks like Muschamp ball''. No, the frick it doesn't. This doesn't look anything like his tenure here. I was never scared in this game, with Muschamp I was scared of every game. FCS, Vandy, didn't matter.


I hope you don't balance your own checkbook. You are totally blind to what's staring you in your own face. You do know that you made the same stupid excuses for Muschamp?

Bullfricking shite I championed Muschamp -- I will literally say I was the first Gator fan to call for his firing, in the very beginning and because he actually had a decent team.

Meyer was consistently recruiting in the top 25. Literally the top class of 2010.

That's the difference.

Muschamp inherited championship caliber players and ended up somehow not bowling.

Mac inherited a the 21st place recruiting class and won the East.

Muschamp - #1 Recruiting Class, can't bowl.

Mac - #21 Recruiting Class (that he saved), wins the East.

That he accomplished anything without a kicker, Oline, Quarterback and mediocre receivers is nothing to balk at. If we had Grier at quarterback, we would pretty much be beating the frick out of every team we played, but alas, we don't.

And because someone didn't recruit quarterbacks Mac had to get four new ones, and work them into the system. It's not easy behind an underrecruited Oline.

LDR has been in his system two years and looked average at best. Mac's recruiting is worse than WM overall. He'll be here only because of his $7-10M buyout. He's had 4 QBs and they all have looked the same with different WRs and OL. Last year was like WM in 2012.

I'm done with this place.

You guys are fricking depressing.

This used to be a great board. Better than GatorCountry's delusional sunshine pumpers and 247's constant bitching about everything and gloom and doom attitude.

Laughable to me that you morons are constantly depressed all the time watching our team in a sport we love to watch.

You do know that my post was poking fun at all the "sky is falling" type stuff from a few posters here?

TJ holy frick you're a moron, kid.

Mac has only been here for one year and a fricking half.

quote:

He's had 4 QBs and they all have looked the same with different WRs and OL. Last year was like WM in 2012.


Because it was with Muschamp's players -- or lack thereof.

And again you're a moron.

Luke Del Rio through three games had 762 yards. Through three games.

Treon Harris, the entire year after Grier went down, 1,676.

In three games, LDR has 6 touchdowns.

In the entire season, Harris had 9.

You seriously can't be this dumb, man.

The quarterbacks absolutely don't look anywhere near the same, and quite honestly, if LDR was in our game would have been considerably different. Just like if Grier had played the entire year last year.

It's not Mac's fault, outside of Grier, we had no quarterback.

It's not Mac's fault he pissed hot.

It's not Mac's fault we had no Oline.

It's not Mac's fault we had no kicker.

It's not Mac's fault we had one upperclassmen running back.

You're so stupid. There is no comparison between Mac and Mus, none. Zero. Muschamp got the keys to a perfectly serviceable team and drove the fricker in the ditch.

Mac took the car in the ditch and managed to, at the very least, get it back on the road.

This board is a very slow paced board compared to the ones you listed. This board could go days without a single new post. Especially during the off season.

As far as being depressed, I think we have a pretty good damn reason to be depressed. When we're using to seeing our team hang 60+ point on teams that deserve it to watching them struggle to get in field goal range, it gets pretty pathetic to watch. This team just doesn't have the want to compete.

I have no idea why you guys thought we'd be elite or even near elite with the failure in recruiting by the previous coach. Maybe you just had no idea how badly he left us, but it's weird how you've said Mac has had 2+ years with the team like twice in this conversation even though he hasn't even been here for a year and a half.

I think the negativity has spiraled a bit out of control, especially on this board where I think TJ is literally just trolling some of you now. Which is weird, to troll your own fanbase, but whatever.

I think that the season may take a turn for the worst but I'll still go to every game I can and watch every game and hope for the best.

I think people just need to remember that most people only post online when they are upset. That should temper your expectations about posting. As sunshine pumping happy as they are on the GC boards, even there, it is a mess right now.

Actually, Mac inherited a recruiting class ranked 116th in December and had to turn it around in a total of 2 months to get it ranked 21st. And almost an entire month of that was during a dead period.

TJ you are a piece of shite fan and obviously have the intellect of a 13 year old. You're trolling the board, ruining it for good posters who want to discuss the program that we all grew up loving. You are an embarrassment. Mac didn't put up 600 yards and 50 points per game on the road in back to back weeks against a top 10 team and Vandy with a back up quarterback and no offensive line. I get questioning his personnel choices, but to call him an incompetent coach after taking us to Atlanta with Treon Harris and no kicker last year shows what a complete moronic fricking tool you are.

The recruiting struggles is a myth. Mac had two months to get the class from ranked 116th when he took over, to 21st on signing day. Last cycle, we finished with the 12th ranked class in the country, a class where we signed 3 offensive linemen, 4 wide receivers (all 4 star or better and including the #2 overall wide receiver in the nation), two quarterbacks (including the #4 overall quarterback in the country), a four star tight end, and on defense a five star DE, a couple of good linebackers, and a couple of four star guys in the secondary. Oh, and the number one kicker in the country.

So I'm sorry that I, like many other Gators, have the mental capacity to see beyond what they're doing in two games with a back up quarterback and won't call for Mac to be fired. You're a joke. It's not worth trying to change your mind because you are either a troll or simply not smart enough to see the foundation that is being set by a coach in his first two years.

we're 4-1, and the only quality team we've played all season is Tennessee. we haven't even touched the bulk of the schedule yet. the thing is, we should be 4-1 or even 5-0. but not the way we accomplished it thus far.

History is the best trend to predict the future.

Mac and Co recruiting especially on defense has been laughable at best since they got here. What makes you think that will change in the future?

Our OL has one commit, had plenty of experience and still they struggle just as much as last year not being able to run/pass block. The only difference is this schedule has been easier than last years and even that was not as hard as usual.

quote:

GatorsScott: “This whole young offensive line thing, I’m over that. These guys have played enough.” — Mac




I wouldn't have a problem if this team didn't look the exact same as last year and we didn't suck at recruiting.
Where on this team has there been vast improvement? LDR has been in Nusschamps/Macs system for over two years. 2013, 2015, this year. He got scared against NT. Kicker has been our only major improvement on this team.


You guys keep complaining about WM but half this roster is Mac's and 70% will be his by next year. With 60% 3 *s. WM defense saved last year like in 2012 and the talent this year kept us from losing to UMass and Vandy despite how bad of a DC Collins is. Do you guys really think this team which has shown no discipline, adjustment fire or major improvement and has been out recruited and coached since Mac got here is magically going to beat teams with a young defense made up of players that wouldn't be on the two deep on most of the SEC and an offense that is so predictable and mediocre that no matter the QB the results are the same? Wait til next year is your mantra, the team will be better! Well next year you're gonna see what happens when you recruit like Missouri and play like a bottom SEC on offense. It ain't gonna be pretty and those are facts. We'll be lucky to win 7 games. Thanks to the best AD in the country you'll get to see Mac in 2018 regardless he'll only have a $10M buyout after this year and a $7.75M after next year. That's on top of $5M we'll pay for his csu clause.

Florida is going to get a commit this weekend that will move them to 9th in the country in the 247 class rankings. But that doesn't fit the terrible recruiter narrative so you won't mention that.

You're calling to fire a coach already, that won 10 games in year one and is 4-1 with the only loss being on the road to a top 10 team with a back up quarterback.

Listen to yourself. Just astoundingly laughable. I wish we had a team full of 3 stars like Antonio Callaway and Jarrad Davs and Jawaan Taylor and Quincy Wilson. It sucks having all SEC guys like that. You're such a fricking joke. Keep rooting against your "team". We'll all remember who jumped ship when Mac is holding up a trophy.

need i remind you that we were 4-1 in 2013 going into the LSU game. we lost that game and the remaining 6 games after that. 4-1 doesn't mean anything to me. especially seeing who we've played thus far.
