The McElWAY: The Path to Rebuild the Florida Offense

Written By: Kevin J. Camps

Thomas Edison once said, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

This has been the recent sentiment of Gator Nation when assessing the Florida Gators offense. Saying the Gator offense has struggled would be an understatement. The numbers 105, 105, 113 and 97 have defined the suffering; they are the national rankings of the Florida offense the past four years. This offense made three yards and a cloud of dust look like an Oregon offense.

We can state many theories for the shortcomings offensively. Some would blame a lack of talent and others the coach who lacked conviction on an offensive philosophy, which hindered three offensive coordinator’s ability to bring success on the field.
