Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley said Monday that he would continue to evaluate coach Will Muschamp following the Gators’ embarrassing 42-13 homecoming loss to Missouri.
“At the beginning of the season, we said we would evaluate the season as it plays out,” Foley said in a statement. “We will continue to do so. Our sole focus right now is supporting our coaching staff and players as they prepare for Georgia.”
Fans chanted “Fire Muschamp” during the second half Saturday as the Gators fell behind 42-0.
Muschamp is in his fourth season and was 4-8 a year ago. The Gators now have lost 10 of 13 games as Muschamp’s record sits at 25-19 at Florida, including 15-14 in conference games.
“I’m not getting concerned about things I don’t have any control over, other than this team. I think that’s the most important thing right now,” Muschamp said Saturday after the loss when asked about his job security.
The Gators (3-3, 2-3 SEC) are off this week before facing Georgia (6-1, 4-1) on Nov. 1 in Jacksonville.
