New UF coach Jim McElwain can easily surpass expectations

GAINESVILLE — At this point, Gator Nation would settle for an average offense.

Actually, after enduring four years of Will Muschamp dreadfulness, they would settle for an offense that is slightly below average.

If the late, great Al Davis were alive today and cheering for the Gators, he'd amend his famous decree whenever UF's offense took the field.

“Just don't be terrible, baby!”

This is the edict for Jim McElwain in Year 1 as the new head coach/offensive messiah of the University of Florida. Gator fans don't expect an awesome offense in McElwain's inaugural season; they just don't want another awful one.
