    Florida Recruiting Snapshot 2024

    Yeah--add-ons are coming fast and furious now!

    Florida Gators 2024 Recruiting Class

    Well, I am more and more convinced that the talent level has improved now to a significant degree. How much tighter IS the coaching gonna be now is the big question. It seems that will make all the difference. No surprise, all significant JUDGEMENT will depend on results from here on...

    Florida Recruiting Snapshot 2024

    AND 2025 is beginning to shape up nicely thus far as well. The Coach and his staff need more TIME here to see what they really can do. No short-sighted, emotionally juvenile, sudden knee-jerk change at the top is going to improve OR shorten the process of building back a WINNER in Gainesville...

    Who Can Tell?

    "AGREED!" to all of the above--especially the last coupla paragraphs. "The LONG GAME" is mainly all we really got now--and a bunch of mainly ignorant johnny-come-latelies who neither know of nor care about little of the program's history or the context under which we envision any hope for its...

    Who Can Tell?

    At this point, mid-May and by now having seen Billy reorganize his staff to such a degree, to have witnessed such drastic moves in recruiting and the transfer portal--to even find us now once again actually somehow chasing Cormani (or perhaps more accurately, "to find Cormani and family chasing...

    Florida Gators 2024 Recruiting Class

    Well, we appear to have somewhat reclaimed our original more highly regarded 2024 class (I'd even go further and say that with the latest last moment additions, our ranking might well deserve even higher consideration: Objectively speaking we may well be a "Top 5" class now)...With a good...

    Impacts of 2024 Transfers

    We still probably need to pick up at least a couple more in the portal (especially at WR), and damn near ALL will need to contribute in order for that "impact" to be sufficiently felt. Gotta hope it'll add up to enough to fulfill SS's projected outcome, recordwise ("8-4"...frankly, a bit more...

    2024 Orange and Blue Game

    ...AND, I might add, that "8-4" prediction from SS I personally would find, under the circumstances (ie. against this schedule), quite acceptable, even encouraging--as I think would most fans at this point. However, this also speaks to the "danger", that of "fan impatience" and...

    2024 Orange and Blue Game

    Tre was great at WR--but we clearly must establish another WR (and hopefully a TE as well) if we hope to prevent defenses from simply keying on Wilson to shut down our deep threat. Baugh perhaps? Who else? Our #1 kicker (Smack) seems set, but ya gotta feel for the young FAU transfer (Smith)...He...

    2024 Orange and Blue Game

    (Made several "subtle but crucial changes" above: I would now submit it as much a "State of the Program, Spring 2024" as simply a "comment on the Spring Game".)

    2024 Orange and Blue Game

    Good turn out. Lots of "encouraging signs" here and there throughout the day, but above all I guess we have to hope that a "vastly improved defense" is the main "one clear thing" we can take overall from the proceedings. After that, well, aside from general "further ongoing development", the...

    Piling On

    ...and this thread CONTINUES to be the seeming "right place" to bring all the odd, "out-of-left-fieid" questions and topics that come up as spring gathers steam: As we work through the he seeming "annual bummer" of another early exit from the dance (this year it's a #7-seed Fla losing to...

    Depth and Injuries at Linebacker 2024

    It at least SEEMS we have some depth at LB heading into 2024...but those surgeries raise Question Marks as to whether and/or WHEN these (all mainly among our most promising) will be back now. Any word from "behind the scenes" that you're aware of, E--? These are likely to be the gathering...

    I'm glad you raised all this, Lf--and the ONLY reason I didn't give it a "Like" is so that there is no confusion in separating my approval of our addressing all this here, now that it's been raised, while DISAPPROVING of DeSantis' mouthy meddling WAY beyond whatever the citizens of The Sunshine...

    Piling On

    LOL. GOOD one E-! I dunno...I mean, of COURSE I'm sweating this one out already, with no real feel for WHERE "Napier has the program" right at this moment. But know what? Even with that being the case. I do still now have this strangely upbeat vibe, the unexpected, out-of-left-field feeling that...

    Piling On

    Just a note...I wasn't sure where to post it here. Was tempted to simply open a whole new thread, but it sort of fits HERE too--so I will tentatively leave it here to start: Upon my first look at next season's schedule, it was immediately apparent that our outlook for the whole YEAR will likely...

    ...and now come Saban's recent comments, his supposed rationale for suddenly walking away. Amazing ti find myself saying it, but those comments do NOT sound a whole lot different from my last post HERE (directly above)--His are only, if anything, more detailed and specific.

    Florida Gators hire Cleveland Browns OL coach Jonathan Decoster as OL coach

    Time to just line up and back our boys. Keep the background static to a minimum if possible (I don't care HOW "venerated" a figure of Gator lore you are!) and simply let them all, players AND Coaches, entrenched or newcomer, DO THEIR JOBS and GROW TOGETHER. All ANY of us really are focusing on...

    Florida Gators Men's Basketball 2023-2024

    Last second let down. Close--but no cigar. They might get to the Sweet 16, but then they'll likely fade, as usual. Baseball will likely, eventually go a bit better... But the penultimate "bottomline" will almost certainly once again be, "Nice little run, boyz...Now: Let's turn to Spring Camp...
