Report: McDonald to Gators

[djorange1989]

A couple of Florida Gator blogs are reporting that McDonald is going to be hired as the WR coach at Florida. No shock if this is true, of course.

Took longer than I thought it would for him to split. Glad he's out of our conference at least.

So who is the Next Man Up?

It's gotta be a dynamic recruiter with FLA heavy connections

 

[tep624]

Just a rumor at this point but may have legs, we'll probably know in the morning.

Best of luck to him either way. I don't expect this to impact our recruiting class too much and him recruiting for a SEC program shouldn't impact us much either.

Does he take any recruits with him?

McDonald has tweeted a couple of "deep thoughts" the past couple days. I was thinking that maybe something was up with him. Same kind is stuff he tweeted when he joined us.

Golden can't be happy with the possibility of Shannon and McDonald being on the Florida staff. Those guys can certainly recruit the Miami area.

Does he take any recruits with him?

Which of his recruits do you think would be recruited to play at Florida ? zero.

Bigger issue might be a couple of kids look around but none of his kids were heavily recruited this year.

This is the staff at FL as of 12/30...

Florida: Jim McElwain (head coach), Doug Nussmeier (offensive coordinator / quarterbacks), Geoff Collins (defensive coordinator), Tim Skipper (running backs) Greg Nord (tight ends / special teams coordinator), Terrell Williams (defensive line), Randy Shannon (linebackers), Kirk Callahan (defensive backs)

GatorFanatic has confirmed it through whatever sources they have.

Good point. Not recalling any current recruit specifically mentioning McDonald as one of the main reason he chose SU.

Now the question is, who does Shafer go after?

Here's their article.

Thought this was an interesting tweet this morning.

this guy acted like a baby when he was demoted. Good riddance regardless of his recruiting prowess.

what's interesting about it?

 

[PhatOrange]

no idea who we'd replace him with - there are a million WR coaches. I might look for a former WR who's coaching HS down in Florida.

Casullo as WR/ST coach?

Bob or Rocco?

HCSS has mended bridges and Bob speaks highly of him/program now. I also heard that Rocco is interested in college coaching.

 

[Jake]

Rocco.

 

[Cuseman78]

Lets hope that he doesnt drag along Eric White with him. Losing GMac, I can deal with. Losing Eric White would sting.

 

[cuseman404]

He has to be near the top of the list, have to go with a Fla guy. Plus if we lose Lester, doesnt he recruit parts of Fla for us as well?

 

[Whitey23]

@Stephen_Bailey1
Jeff Bertani, North Miami Beach HS coach and best friend of George McDonald, said "no truth" to Florida rumor. Spoke w/ George at 9 a.m.

@Stephen_Bailey1
Bertani said McDonald has not even spoken with Florida.

Why would we lose Lester? Have I missed something here?

 

[kcsu]

[cuseman404]

Hahaha Lester I meant to say meant Dauost.... Derrrrrrrrr
