    When we kicked the field goal, TV showed Jerri saying, "What was that?!"

    I really do hope our program will be back. Beng a punching bag for teams with a pulse has gotten really old.

    Poor man has to be thinking what the hell happened to the program he built. The trajectory of the last 15 years has been one big downhill slide with the exception of 4 highlight seasons.

    I imagine it is, but at least he knew the program at a time before it became what it did when he arrived.

    They say a picture is worth a thousand words. This one, maybe more. Penny for your thoughts Steve.

    Except that SOS knows that we don't have the NIL money to compete with the big dogs. Napier may not be the answer, but who is under the circumstances?

    If things don't change, I've got a feeling we're going to get those thoughts for free.

    As competitive and innovative as SOS was, that pic is sobering. Must be difficult for him to spin his thoughts as our ambassador. He’s a stronger man than I am to choose his words carefully.

    I suspect he’s thinking they can make it back to Gainesville in time for the bottomless Mimosa’s at the Sunday brunch at Spurrier’s… if they leave early.

    I love it because both she and SOS are 100% into winning and not scoring three points. Three points does nothing for you against a team like Texas. I bet she an SOS and more concerned with our streak of losing seasons over some other streak about scoring.

    SOS knew why 1986-1989 was a struggle. It wasn't because the program was broken. The 1983-5 years were no fluke due to a single dominant player like 2010 Auburn, for example. Charley showed Gator Nation what could be attained at Florida, and SOS knew it full well...

    Spurrier isn’t surprised at this disaster, remember he already voiced his displeasure with the direction of the program over the offseason. Some fans told him he needed to keep quiet and keep his opinions to himself.

    I understand his expression but, it didn’t matter if we scored 3 points or 7 points, we
    Weren’t going to come back from being down 42 to nothing.
