and found out that McElwain was who they wanted all along and that he is a perfect fit for the Gators. OK, we are in trouble now.

Wishful, hopeful thinking just like when any fanbase gets a new coach.

It's not a bad hire.  But not a home run.

Yeah, I understand that the rest of the East should now abandon all hope of making it to the SECC in the foreseeable future.  Dammit, we just can't catch a break.

Question: Has there ever been a coach who didn't win his introductory presser? Derek Dooley had the best introductory press conference of any Tennessee coach I can remember.

FWIW: I think Florida made an excellent hire. But it IS humorous that they were throwing around the biggest names in the business and making statements as though those coaches would be nuts not to be interested in UF...and suddenly a relatively little-known guy from Colorado State is the guy they all wanted.

True that Derek "knocked em out" at the presser.  Another similarity...both men are considered proteges of Nick Satan.  I just hope the parallels continue from there.   

Unfortunately, unlike Dooley McElliwain had winning records at CSU...but we will see.  This ain't the Big West, or whatever shizzle conference CSU is in.
