Firing Mr Ed for cause?
- Thread starter -MDVOL
- Start date
For 'cause he needs to go.
Remember like 5 weeks ago when people were on this board talking about how McElwain had the same SEC record as Spurrier in his first 2 years? That was was neat and special.
He just sat up there defeated and somehow knows its over, he was doing Muschamps post firing press talking it all past tense and how they didn't get it done and win anything.. Looks like Will after the South Carolina choke in '14...
Maybe he and Lyle have some arrangement where they get to switch schools at a certain point.
Lyle takes his bricks, trowel, and Champions of Life Awards to Gainesville while Mr Ed loads up the donkeys and heads to Knoxville for each man to put in 4 years
Mr Ed would have to give up being the head swamp Donkey. But we got lots and lots of Pink Marble quarrys( one of the rarest types Marble and found almost exclusively in E.Tennessee so he could dress up the
donkeys in Pink Hot Pants and Halter tops. Panama hats with Flamingo feathers in them. as they lug the marble from mine to mill.
Mr Ed could buy a bunch of pink sledgehammers to award those who bust up and load the most rock every week.
Down at F-U, Lyle could go through all the Brick by Brick cliches as well as 5 * hearts.
Thats what everyone said about Muschamp and Mac. Its not that easy. Post spurrier you are 1 for 4(Meyer) on picking coaches.
I agree. Its just not ez to get the right coach. Timing has to be right, i want UF to get the right guy. I hope they do, its just not ez
Foley picked the 3 that sucked. Bad fits. All of them.
Machen picked Meyer.
Machen picked Meyer.
“Post spurrier you are 1 for 4(Meyer) on picking coaches.”
Yeah...but post Bowden you’re 0 for 1. ijs

To be fair to Foley, it was a no-brainer in choosing Urban Meyer at that time. Machen's previous relationship with Meyer at Utah was an advantage for UF & Foley to make that pitch for the head coach position.
I think the other top candidates at the time were Steve Spurrier, Bobby Petrino, and ?Bob Stoops. Those were all solid choices.
Today, nothing looks like a home-run choice.
It seemed a no brainer if you weren't bringing Spurrier back but looking at Foley's other picks I wouldn't have put it past him to try something like he was smarter than everyone else if Machen didn't insist on Meyer.
There was a lot of talk that he wanted to go off the board and hire a muschamp or mcelwain type. He wanted to look like the smartest guy in the room and hire a nobody and have him succeed. He didn’t want others, including fans, telling him who to hire. It’s been said that Machen basically forced him to hire Meyer. There sure was a bunch of foot dragging and slow playing going on. It looked for a while that ND was going to get ahead of us.
Yeah like I said. Rumors.
But you’ve got to admit it sounds plausible. I’d be willing to bet there was a grain of truth in it.

Kiffin is near you. I'm sure he'd like the upgrade. Another Saban OC with NFL experience.How about we try Miles...UT tries Chizik and we go from there.
Because Zook, Mus and Mr. Ed were all better than Jumbo?? That's just funny.
Make no mistake........UF is paying the Sharkhumper every single dime of his buy-out. They cannot prove he did or did not lie about the threats and they can't make him say otherwise. You people are idiots.....you're playing that old fool SOS millions to do nothing but represent UF. Coach M is making out like a fat rat with that heavy paycheck. Good for him.
He agreed to take 4 million as his buyout. 9 million below contract.
Don't open your piehole unless you have a clue. Or want another bite of pie.
Why are you still here? It's late, brush your tooth and go to bed.
And that Old Fool ran up the score on you at your house just because he wanted to set the record, and because he could.
