Guys that are emotionally volatile like Muschamp just don't seem to make good head coaches IMO. Reminds me of the John L-type personality -- a great assistant whose unit can be the most valuable part of the team, but as a head coach has a very emotional, reactive, and undisciplined group.

The guy at the top has to be able to keep composure and pick his spots. If he can't, his players won't either.

Meyer's squads were also undisciplined, he just kept them in line on the field. Meyer is an excellent head coach, and was able to get that much from them. Muschamp is an average head coach. I can't blame him for the poor attitude of the athletes, when he is told them to win at all costs (which I strongly believe). It takes a great coach to keep great athletes with poor character in line on the field. I don't know who Florida can get to change it. There sense of entitlement in gainesville is some of the worst I've seen, approaching USC and Miami. Meyer didn't even fix it, he just kept it in line (He may have helped create it with all the winning). Therefore I cannot blame Muschamp. I feel like even guys like Charlie Strong or Dabo Swinney could fail here. Better offensive scheming, but they haven't had to deal with that entitlement, in fact it was the opposite when they arrived at Louisville/Clemson. They need someone who will keep them in line, ala Meyer or Saban. And I don't think even Alabama has the sense of entitlement that Florida has.

I see what you're saying but Mushchamp is getting paid the big bucks. In the end if they don't get their shit together there's nothing you CAN do but blame him
