The OP might really have a f$u connection--that doesn't mean this whole damn thing is yet another attempt by the f$u fanbase to engineer a move that's not really in the works.

In some ways, f$u to the SEC would make sense for us--as others have pointed out on this board. But far better to keep them marginalized as the little brothers they are.

FSU to SEC would suck for us. The academic standards are night and day between us and them. Think about all the Fla 5 star recruits from fla that went out of state to play in the SEC, because grades/test scores were an issue with us. A huge percentage would go to FSU if they joined the premier conference in all of college football.

I didn't ask for a name.

But "a source is a source" is quite obviously untrue. If it's a janitor at FSU versus someone on the board of regents, we're talking about a huge difference in validity.

I said I hope I'm wrong.

Last I checked this is a message board and no need for your above comment Nicho . Just relax all is good dude

Literally dumping while reading this thread. Awful bathroom material.

So how about it, Done? Have I pegged ya?

I pegged UberTiger as Vito so I have my own track record of troll-detecting.

Must be all those fake PRO GATOR posts he's made to throw us off the scent. :rolls eyes:

This is INCORRECT!!!!!! While UF may have higher admissions standards for general students, I'm almost positive the minimum standards for athletes are exactly the same for UF, FSU and Miami.

It would still hurt UF recruiting but not for the reasons you stated.

UFreak · 01-10-2013, 12:49 PM

I mean, the troll thing does get thrown out a bit liberally here. I've been called a Nole troll before.

I didn't say I anticipated it. I said it wasn't that far-fetched of an idea. Is basic reading comprehension an issue here?

Anyway, an alternative explanation has been offered for his accuracy on the Walker issue. He could easily be a Warchant insider/clown who brings their info over. That's not very far-fetched either.

Nothing untrue about it. Even If he said somebody on the board you still would've second guessed it.

I really hope not... i couldn't imagine rooting for them in bowl games and non-conference games.

That's not true. I don't actually have an opinion on the veracity of the claim, nor does it really matter much to me. But I'd like to know where it's coming from and without any detail on that it's hard to take it seriously.

If you think the janitor at FSU is as valid a source as a member of the Board of Regents I'm not sure there's much I can do for you.

You attacked a poster and have yet to show proof of your accusation. You have made claims as fact when the OP stated his post as rumor. That's what I comprehend.

Don't spin it back at me saying there's not much you can do for me. You want people to give up sources and when they don't you want to question them. Like I stated, no matter who the source was, you would've still questioned it.

If it didn't matter you wouldn't have bothered to keep asking.

I'm not saying our state officials have any sway over whether or not the SEC would accept FSU, but I think it's naive to think Foley gets to make a decision in vacuum about something that could mean tens of millions of dollars for another state institution when that other state institution is currently losing money (the state of Florida's money since they are a public university). That's all I'm saying. The state board that controls the university system will absolutely have some input on UF's "official" stance if the opportunity were to arise because there is serious financial ramifications involved, IMHO.
