Uh, Florida, if you’re looking for a replacement with plenty of experience and who knows exactly what to do in Gainesville from having worked with Foley for many years… well, I won’t be offended if you ask to speak with Greg McGarity. Promise.

“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23
I for one would echo your comments Senator and believe that McGoo, eh McGarity would make a fabulous AD at the U of Florida! I imagine there will be an outpouring of support for him on this blog;-)

UF’s accomplishments under Foley have been staggering. Something like 27 national championships, I think. I wonder if Spurrier would consider the job.

Given that Smart seems to already have him trained pretty well, I kid of like him where he is for the time being. A replacement could just as easily come in “feel-good-guns” blazing.

OK Jere Moorehead, time for you to step up and drop a hint or two.

Senator, I’m just curious….much like the consternation some of us felt before the decision to remove Richt, what makes you feel like the people making the decision on replacing McG would find anyone better? Wouldn’t protecting The Georgia Way be their first priority?
I’m not saying he should stay, mind you. And I am relieved and optimistic with Smart as our football coach. I still just think the same folks are in charge, and McG just executes their vision. Maybe with Morehead in charge, I’m wrong.

It’s a fair question. My hope is that Michael Adams wouldn’t be involved in the hire, so at least we’d have that going for us. 🙂

This is brilliant!
we need to treat this like a baseball trade where we continue to pay part of Adam’s salary but they have to have them (McGarity and Adams ) on their roster..

McGarity going back to UF would have been like Richt going back to FSU.
Ain’t ever going to happen.
In both situations the answer was “hell no, no damn way!”
Frankly I think McGarity would be a good fit a Tech.
Good AD just left Baylor, perhaps the Gators can start their search there.

Not exactly a denial by our fair AD:
“Oh gosh. I’m fully focused on our responsibilities here,” McGarity said. “I’m a Georgia graduate, I’m a Georgia man. I love my job. That’s really, to be honest, that’s not part of anything – I’ve never thought about that. I wouldn’t even go there today. That’s a question for later on.”
