I don’t think Boom is getting fired, even if the Gators suffer through a losing season. But I wonder how he’ll react if Foley dictates in the offseason that some changes have to be made on the coaching staff.
Get The Picture 
Please don’t fire Boom or Pease! Four (or more?) in a row would be too delicious!

Florida won’t be any better next year, so Muschamp is doomed to be fired mid season next year.
It’s amazing that our 2nd or 3rd stringer at every skill position on offense is better than their 1st stringer. They just don’t have any talent.

I think this is probably right. They won’t fire him after this season. They’ll wait until the product on the field next season is sup-par, then fire him so they will be ahead of other teams that are also searching for coaches by season’s end. I also agree that there is no skill position talent on O there.

Mayor…no skill position talent? Really?

Most of theirs is on the sideline, as is a large portion of our O..

The strategic pistons are already firing down there — Muschamp is, I believe, already twisting in the wind and that Foley schemer has his fingers twirling the figurative rolodex. I bet they figure they fired too low with Pease and go after the main guy, Peterson, in some strange retro make-up hire that will likely blow back in their collective faces. Kinda like how The Urnge pulled the preemptive trigger on Dooley or The Barn latched onto The Chin.

I’m surprised that you don’t think he’ll get canned. It appears that he’s in over his head and 11-2 last year seems like it was more due to luck in the turnover department than actual talent/coaching.

Boom’s got a huge buyout, he’s recruiting like a sumbitch, he’ll get to play the injury card to explain this season and I give him more credit for the 2012 results than you do.
I will say that if there isn’t much improvement in 2014, that’ll be his last year in G’ville.

I agree Foley won’t fire Boom after this year. Injuries. Next season Florida opens with 3 easy games. Then the Gators play Bama, UT, LSU, Missouri, Georgia, Vandy and South Carolina in a row. Except for UT all those teams will have beaten FU the previous year except for Bama, which they didn’t play. Boom will never make it out of that stretch. He’ll be gone after the WLOCP, if not before.

I don’t know Mayor…it is pretty clear Boom has not a clue about hiring an offensive coordinator who can use what he’s got… a lot of these offensive players looked pretty damn good at times last year…Fred Taylor’s kid is a talented running back, Solomon is an asshat, but he can catch a ball.
If I was Foley, I might have to listen to the growling coming from the Bull Gators’ area.

Maybe the bull gators have spoken to Jeremy and he’ll hire another guy from Georgia like Bobo

It’s an intriguing theory … but, when is the last time an SEC school unloaded a coach during the year (S.O.D. excluded I suppose)? That is like the Nuclear Option.

Imagine that. An a.d. would get after the HC if a top assistant consistently underperforms. Of course the assistant could blame the performance on injuries or youth, or both. But losing to vandy?! Even the most patient fans have a limit!

I’d say Pease’s fate was sealed when he called the short-side option (his version of Bobo’s third-down dive up the middle) with the Gators first and goal inside the one-yard-line, trailing 17-0. Lost five yards, wound up kicking a field goal as the crowd booed lustily.
What may happen now is that Boom will be required to find himself a can’t-miss offensive genius who will give him a schematic advantage…oh, wait.
The ridicule of Boom at EDSBS for dumb, atavistic football has been just amazing, even before the Gators lost to Vandy. I think the Florida fan base is becoming a horde of energy vampires.

If Coach Boom is available after this season, will all those UGA fans stand up and holler for his hire as they did a few years ago. Or have they changed their mind now. What in hell did they know about coaching! Glad we did not have to play Vandy after UF this year. Heck, H”APPY” State was enohg fror CMR.

On a Florida blog last night, saw a lot of hopeful talk about Georgia firing Grantham and luring Boom to Athens as DC.

I don’t get this logic (not saying it doesn’t reflect the attitude of many Dawg fans, I just don’t understand it). The guy is an alum, a proven successful DC, will have fallen from the prospect of another HC job AND we have all of the Grantham frustrations and disappointments piling up. I hate to sound like one of those who thinks we should just emulate Bama, but are our feelings really so sensitive that we would turn away a guy who could help us improve on D?
Whether he is an improvement is another matter and not really the thrust of my comment. I just don’t get turning him away because of our fee-fees…

injuries impact teams as well as schedule of play. UF will bring back 2 experienced QBs next year. UF’s major problem other than injuries has been their QB issue for about 3-4 years. Think Pease is a good coach but handicapped this season. Perhaps Boom changes OC based on Gators scoring.

Well Pease is cheaper than Charlie Tuna. His contract runs through 2015.

“I do feel badly for Florida,” James Franklin thought about saying after the game. “It’s no fun getting your butt beat like this at home, homecoming and all that. They’re probably not as strong a team as they were when they were kicking our tails since the last time I’ve been in here. But the blue team coach (Boom) and his guys, they need to recruit their way out of it, and it’s going to take a little time as we all know.”

I really never understood the Pease hire in the first place. The guy was from Boise State, they have fifth year seniors that are smart footballers not hot shot pre-NFLer’s who are not good team players. While all Pease had to do at BSU was oversee these scholar athletes, at Florida he must stroke egos and tolerate hotdogs and morons that want to fight when things don’t go their way like it did in high school.. On top of this his boss wants to be like Saban so he does not want the wide open stuff. This was a cultural mismatch.
