You mean Steve Spurrier, Bill Arnsberger notwithstanding. Eighties Gators remember the child support payments to Jarvis Williams, supplements to...
Galen wasn't fired due to underperformance.
Respectfully, on a fan-based message board, second only to loyalty and reverence to the board's icons, one's membership length is perhaps the...
I've learned we could learn from anyone. Our 1980s AirLand Battle doctrine was fashioned after Blitzkrieg. Our Interstate system was influenced...
Couldn't agree more. I think we'll have to see how the NIL will evolve/devolve. During the beginning of baseball free agency, many teams bought...
For real! "If's and buts..." Yet Bill Parcells' words still ring in my ears. "You are as good as your record says." I fear most of the Gator...
I hear ya, but history doesn't begin with our conscious recollection. "In history" means all time. We did well under Graves, so I would begin...
I agree about the population demographic shift, and in fact, I would take it back to Ray Graves, when Carrier developed affordable air...
I'm glad you do, which is help in understand why every coach we had that didn't win natties averaged three years on the job. I stand corrected....
We all despise the Noles, but: 2017: 7-6 2018: 5-7 2019: 6-7 2020: 3-6 2021: 5-7 2022: 10-3 2023: 13-1 2017-21: 26-33 (.441) 2022-23:...
Oh, I agree; he wasn't. But he was not as horrible as many make him out to be, that being an impossibility.
I've been a Gator for many decades, and have repeatedly seen the patterns. For many here, Spurrier and Meyer are the standard. Everything else...
Let's look at the number of OL'men recruited since 2008: 2002: 3 2003: 5 2004: 4 Zook average: 4/year 2005: 3 2006: 3 2007: 3 2008: 2...
So if a coach doesn't achieve SOS/Meyer status, they deserve to be despised? Making SOS and Meyer the minimum standard is not only foolish, it...
At Florida, like most schools that have tasted Dom Perignon rather than Cook's or Korbel's, only rings would confer love and sainthood upon a head...
For most (not all) of the Gator players, or at least those for which this applies, "It's great to be anywhere that pays, gives me more PT, or gets...
What we think the benefits are versus what the players think are often two different things.
It's not the schedule. Norvell's schedule didn't get easier than it was through FSUs four losing seasons. He DID do wonders in the Portal. This...
Not sure, Tommy. Once the genie is out of the bottle...
Why not? Is it $$$? Or is it the reluctance to spend the $$$? Florida doesn't have Texas' inexhaustible resources, but we aren't poor, either...
