Nussmeier back to the SEC, will be OC/QB coach at UF

Good hire imo.

He is great at player development but gets way too predictable with playcalling.

Solid hire

He will do real well--

This is scary, was hoping we were going G to the shotgun spread like McElwain ran everywhere but Bama and this scares me into thinking he might try more Bama clone crap which will get his arse canned just like it did Muschamp.

Florida has neither the recruiting base nor the fan tolerance to run power pro style football, if we're not going shotgun spread or a wide open passing attack, McElwain is just going to be a Muschamp with a worse defense and a slightly better offense.

For real? I think Florida has the recruiting base to run whatever they want.

It's possible to run power here, but there's a reason that despite playing in nearly 50% of the title games since 1980 none of the big 3 schools built there programs around run heavy power football ala LSU or Bama, it doesn't best utilize the existing talent base and nearly all the big HS in the state use the spread or spread option.

It's the equivalent of Bama becoming an Air Raid program like Texas Tech, sure it could work but it's going to piss the fans off and seems pointlessly hard.
