“You never foresee some things like that happen,” Muschamp said at a Gator Bowl press conference.
Weis’ departure marks the third UF staff member to depart in recent weeks. Florida strength and conditioning coach Mickey Marotti and director of football administration Mark Pantoni both left UF to join Urban Meyer at Ohio State.
But Muschamp says he’s confident he can keep the rest of his coaching staff intact despite the fact that he’s already received several calls by other schools who wished to interview his assistants.
“I’ve been contacted by numerous schools about our staff, which is a huge compliment to the staff we have,” Muschamp said. “We have an outstanding staff, but at the end of the day we have guys and we want continuity with our staff. If guys get a promotion and guys get a step up, I think that’s great and I support it. It says a lot about the guys you hire, that they do a good job and they’re good football coaches and they’re good men and they’re good recruiters. But again, I’m very pleased with the continuity of our staff and I don’t anticipate any changes moving forward.”
Muschamp said he wants to stick with a pro style offense and will find a new offensive coordinator who fits that scheme.
“I will hire the best offensive coordinator in the country,” Muschamp said. “We need to improve offensively. Pretty obvious.”
