34 is correct on this Moorhead 17'd up last season and if you all are happy he won 8 that's pathetic.

No he isn't.
We didn't hire him to be a Mullen clone.

Nope. It's not all Moorhead. If Fitz had been able to go through Spring practice and actually take live snaps we probably aren't having this conversation right now.

Nobody will be calling him Jovester if he exceeds expectations. Mullen averaged 7 wins a season. The bar isn't exactly set at max. If a stupid nickname gives him a little extra fuel. So be it.

Imagine missing the point badly and still wanting to fight about this after what I said.

Enjoy the upcoming season. We have some guys in place this year. We have some NFL talent (probably the most ever called come April) on the field.
Joe is in year 2 . He is getting his kind of guys here. We have some stud juco guys joining the program next year with some talented young kids. The OL and recruiting the OL talent is a huge improvement . We are getting Big time WR prospects to at least give us looks and showing interest. Defense is still recruiting at a SEC high level .
Just keep building the program and winning games...I?m sure the ****s up in Oxford would kill for what we have right now in football .. so ****ing enjoy it
Agree, tired of same threads. Everyone knows strengths and weaknesses of Fitz and Mullen, moving on.
Program is killing it for past 5 years. Next up.

Agreed. Not a fan of the nickname. Why not call him "The People's Eyebrow". At least it isn't derogatory.

Right now he has the #13 class. All 4*s. Last year he had a top 10 class with 17 4*s. Those 2 years combined, he had 27 4* players....... added to what he walked into:
2018- 13 4*s
2017- 11 4*s
2016- 9 4*s
2015- 2 5*s and 2 4*s
That's pretty much 2 times the amount we were getting with him here. And I'm a fan of Mullen and you know from my post thought it was crazy to be calling for him to be gone.
BTW, fans at UF are already complaining about his recruiting and MS ST would kill for those types of numbers.
And there is the one thing many fans don't get with Mullen. He has proven to have a good eye for talent; it ain't about the recruiting stars as Mullen proved at MSU year after year. Florida fans will forget about recruiting if he wins in the fall just like MSU fans did. Yes it adds offseason stress on fanbase but it worked for him. Not saying I like his approach all the time either but hard to complain about the results.

Correct. We hired him to fit his offense to our personnel.
He didn't do that either

No.. we hired him because he is a proven winner and a great offensive mind. He put in his offense and Fitz struggled in it as a passer. Nothing more, nothing less

The only thing Moorhead failed at last year that Mullen wouldn’t have was masking the fact that his QB couldn’t, and never had been able to, hit water falling out a boat.
Last year was an average DM year. Deal with it.

UF expects to go toe to toe with Bama, we actually did that 1 time in 9 years and it required Bama to be on their 2nd and 3rd string LBs. Even in 2014, we were down 12 with less than a minute to go.

Can't ever just look at us and say "of course we stunk on offense but there were things that players did that cost us games that might have been out of Joe's hands."
You just 'qualified' the shitty offense in a way to where it shielded Moorhead from blame. That is the exact reason that you see people qualifying things to the negative.....it's to balance out the excuses that people like you keep making for Moorhead.

We were also down 6 with fourteen minutes to go and put them in third and long three times in one series and could not get off the field. I don?t think we punted the entire second half.

Jackie f’d up 1991 with a 7-5 record too. We lost Memphis State and Fn Air Force. We should have been 9-3.

That's a stupid move by a coach.

Exactly.

I said 8 wins going in last year. We knew the D was loaded and we also knew what we had at QB and WR. Anyone that expected 10 wins last year was delusional. Mullen wouldn't have won 10 either.

Unless he could perform magic, he was never gonna be able to fit Fitz to our offense. He might have thought he could in the beginning, but he soon realized he couldn't.
