    Thanks for the insight. I have little to none insider information about the athletic department. My opinions are formed on what I read and the vibes I get from watching our Gator athletic teams and coaches perform.
    Your comments on Urban Meyer specifically, and the athletic department in general, only serves to strengthen my opinions. I was elated with Meyer’s success but when the makeup wore thin the warts really began to show. What a disappointment he ended up being.
    As for some decision makers at UF being less than enthusiastic about a winning football program: I am hopeful the new president will have a positive impact in that regard.

    It starts with putting someone in charge of the program that has high integrity and is authentic in his words & actions. We seemed to have finally checked that box. Now, let’s let him work.

    There are certain metrics that now lead to winning championships

    money spent on recruiting might be one of them

    coaching staff salaries could be another

    Hiring a HC whose offense scores at least 38 points per game in average still another.

    if not doing these things, you can’t expect to win in the ACC. Perhaps another conference if you do not want to step up but required commitment to win in the SEC
