"There's a lot of hate in this world and a lot of anger," McElwain told reporters. "And yet it's freedom to show it. The hard part is obviously when the threats [are] against your own players, the death threats to your families, the ill will that's brought upon out there."

Nothing about the statement above is a direct claim that McElwain, his family, or individual Florida players received death threats. It reads as if he's saying that death threats are a realistic possibility as a head coach in big boy football. If he agrees to take anything less than 10 million, he's a damn fool.

For instance, if I say "Football is a tough game. It's especially tough when you are exposed to repeated head trauma and concussions", I'm not saying I got a concussion, but simply that it's a part of the game.

Potential coaching applicants at FL should think twice before doing business with such a shiesty administration. Looks real bad from a PR standpoint. Also, he definitely hasn't been fired for cause if the terms of their mutual departure are being negotiated. The longer they negotiate, the less it looks like a "for cause" firing and just like FL is trying to breach their contractual obligations.

If I was hiring a coach, I'd definitely bring stuff like this about Florida. Also, that they fire a guy who took them to SEC championship game often.

I'd take any and be happy. And Kelly of course. I like Frost the most too. Gruden never having coached in college is worrisome to me, but being a celebrity would probably make up for lack of recruiting connections. Not sure we'll he'd manage kids and school and all the ancillary stuff to coaching though.

I’d absolutely take Kelly, but I’m not exactly sure how he’d do recruiting. Granted, he built up Oregon with a ton of 3 stars. In a fertile recruiting ground like UF- sheesh.

It's not just that he's beating teams, it's that he's beating them by the same scores as good P5 teams.
He's taking UCF guys and beating teams like East Carolina with an almost identical score as Fuente at VT beat them. And he's doing so repeatedly.
We go down to the last play or overtime against crap opponents with top 5 classes and he rolls through them like he's at OSU..again, with UCF players.
I rolled my eyes at first but when you watch his team, guy can just flat out coach.

I watched a couple games a few weeks ago. The guy knows what he is doing. He is in complete control.

I am growing a man crush.
