Prayers for Mac…
- Thread starter sadgator
- Start date
My dad had epilepsy for almost his entire life, and passed away by a suspected heart attack in the middle of one.
For Mac to have been hospitalized it must have been a very big episode.
For my dad, at least, a change in medication can cause seizures. My dad's doctors would frequently change his medication even when he wasn't having seizures......and the changes caused seizures.
It's possible that Mac might have had a change in his medication.
Hope all is well. I would like to see him come back as a guest of a football game if he's ever in that position of availability. Hopefully, enough time has passed that the fans would embrace that.

This seems like an appropriate moment to revisit the best video segment of investigative journalism ever produced….
Lol, the Gainesville Sun even wrote an article about the truth being revealed…
…it is beyond all reasonable comprehension that the real culprit’s name was “Jim McSwiggan.”
Simply astonishing…

That would be pretty neat. But only if he wears his sunglasses on a cloudy day, brings in another shipment of BBQ sauce, and serves up his gourmet hot dogs.
Oh and definitely bring the sticks of gum. He can bring Luke Del Rio with him if he pleases.

When McElwain sees McSwiggan for the first time and says, “Holy Shit!,” that reaction is hilariously genuine.
While I thought the situation was hilarious, I did feel a little bad for Mac for having an embarrassing situation dumped on him through no fault of his own.
It would be fun to hang out for a night in Vegas with that Jimmy John’s guy.
He's not coaching? Just sitting in the stands? No issues with that.
But after being fired for making up death threats, I just don't see him embracing UF at any point in the future.
True
I will tip my hat to him now though. Since the inception of the SECCG he is one of 3 UF coaches to make the game multiple times.
Based on the work done, I agree he should have been considered. The problem is the subject matter. Those Pulitzer people strike me as being a bit, well, "stuffy".
He did a tremendous service to us all…if not for that expose…sadgator would have gone to his grave believing that it was Mr. John’s….

It really is an interesting case study in “rush to judgment” type situations…
We had photographic evidence…
we all think everything is so clear and that we know everything…
makes you wonder about stuff….

I was gonna suggest Coach Mac try some shark fin soup for what ails him.
For all you Butters McElwain lovers such as @instaGATOR
From the great one himself, Mick Hubert.

Mick Hubert reveals spat with Jim McElwain that ended radio show
For decades, Mick Hubert hosted the Gator Hotline every week until an argument with a former head coach changed the show forever.
You should hear the interview that Mick Hubert just recently had. He said McElwain was the only head coach in any of the sports during his time at UF that he butted heads with. I think Mac was just very quirky and weird like you said. He didn’t handle pressure well. Hubert was especially complimentary of Billy D. Who by the way IMO Billy D is the best college coach that this state has ever had.

If his team doesn't beat a 1-5 Akron team, Butters 1-5 team may end up 1-11 with their only win vs Bucknell.
