Urban Meyer Resigns / Muschamp Hired

I will take the Georgia tickets off your hands.

We don't dare give up our Tech/GA tickets when the game is in ATL. ;-)

And you still let him marry her. I am going to guess that he isn't from the South. Hopefully, you can contain this affliction to one generation and get your grandkids (when they come as I realize they are only newlyweds) on the right path.

Naw, she didn't watch sports on TV even before she met him. Like I said, all of my yelling during Gator games turned her off of spectator sports.

You are right -- he is German.

I will definitely do all I can to turn my future grandchildren into Southerners. I've already turned my Wisconsin hubby into one (except for the accent).

Muschamp to UF.

Muschamp to UF.

Definitely not their first, second or third choice....but probably still solid.

The beauty is that Muschamp has raided the Texas camp and is taking most of their coaches with him. Mack Brown will be standing all by himself when this is over after firing his other coaches already.

BTW...my Hawg Coach Petrino had just signed a huge 7 year extension just a few hours before UF announced Muschamp...interesting....;-)

Tuck Fexas!

What was the rush? Foley, I'm disappointed. Not on any list I've seen. Golfing buddy? Is this another Zook?:roll: I finally got on team Jeremy, but not so sure now.

I think he made a good hire.

Time will tell if the guy is a head coach.

With all the talent in FL, assuming he's as smart as I think he is, he will do just fine.

Muschamp will likely not cry over a QB and if Chris Rainey threatens a girl, he'll be off the team.

If you're OK with someone sending your daughter a text message "Time to die, BITXX", knock yourself out.

Rainey is a bad apple, that's for sure.

Where's Muschamp's Florida beach house? Maybe he's a SoWaller. If so, .

Coach Will Mus"Chomp".......


Time to get the T-shirts ordered....

Texas will be fine, probably even better after Muschamp leaving.

They will hire Randy Shannon to replace Muschamp any day now, and they will have much needed experience at that position. Plus, Muschamp couldn't do full on recruiting because of his "coach in waiting" title so that put Texas at a disadvantage.

BTW Florida, you just hired someone to be your head coach who is coming off a season as the defensive coordinator for a 5-7 team that had a vastly under-achieving defense.

Actually Texas' defense was ranked 7th nationally.

Florida's bold,?intelligent hiring of Muschamp still came as a surprise - Andy Staples - SI.com

I will be surprised if he doesn't do well and it will make it alot harder to hate the Gators.

.

That is just because the offense was so incredibly terrible that the defense was always defending a short field. It was not because the defense was any good. If you look at scoring defense they are ranked 51st in the country.

I think he will do great at UF. I only hate that UGA couldn't get their hands on him first! I also saw something somewhere that he was looking at Smart for UF's DC position.....I'd hate to see him make a lateral move now when he didn't last year. Oh well. Looks like my Dawgs will be losing to the Gators for quite a few years to come.

Nah.

What's the word on the Florida offensive coordinator position? Everyone here has been saying Major Applewhite is following Muschamp to Florida for that position.

Rainey is a bad apple, that's for sure.

I don't think it's in SoWal, unless it's held in an LLC, but if rumor is true, he co-owns it with a certain Jimbo Fisher. :shock:

Ain't that something?

Only if it's registered outside of Florida.

Muschamp grew up a gator, played at UGA, coached at Auburn and LSU. He and Fisher coached together at LSU and are close friends.

They were also working together at Auburn when Muschamp was a Graduate Asst and Fisher was QB Coach (95-96).

Meyer to stay in Gainesville?

And now, Urban, for your next service to the University of Florida ...
Go away. Get out of there. Don't work there, and if you can swing it, don't even live there.
While Meyer takes off the next few months or even years to rest his heart and be with his family, Foley foolishly wants him to work for the athletic department. And Meyer, crazily, seems inclined to say yes.
Meanwhile, new Florida football coach Will Muschamp will get whiplash from looking over his shoulder. And Gator Nation will get hoarse from shrieking for Meyer's return once Muschamp hits a rough patch. Which, as a rookie head coach making his debut in the brutal SEC, he will. Probably in October 2011, when the Gators play Alabama, LSU, Auburn and Georgia, only one of those games in Gainesville. Imagine the Gators going 2-2 or even 1-3 in that stretch. Can you hear what would happen next? I can:
Bring back Urban! He's rested, he's ready, and he's still living in Gainesville!

I laughed-out-loud when I read this post. I was having my hair highlighted, and everyone stared at me.

Congratulations to Will Muschamp on getting a head coaching position! He deserves it.

You will actually find quite a few of his fellow Alums from The Darlington School in the area, whether here permanently or on vacation, so would not be surprised if there is a sighting, or real estate purchase, eventually if not already.

Go Tigers!

how far into my mouth will my foot go?

I'm a central Ohio native, OSU alumni, and have a son currently attending. Now my beloved Bucks are in the frying pan . . . .

Figures.

Great last game for Urban. How do you Florida fans fill about Weis coming to be OC? I think it's a good pick for the Gators.

After talking to my sister who lives in Dallas and is also a UF grad, I feel very positive about Muschamp. She says that all of her friends in Texas were looking forward to Muschamp becoming head coach at UT and that they are upset that he left. She is excited about the choice of Muschamp as the UF head coach.

In some respects she is more of a Gator fan than I am. She goes to all of the BCS bowl games in which the Gators play, along with her three best friends from UF.

I'm glad that the Gators played a good game as a positive send-off for Meyer.
