    My post had nothing to do with CMW. I have been a gator fan for over 60 years and follow all of the sports-you know nothing about me.

    Respectfully disagree. The shots are not high percentage shots. Not a lot of good looks in the post or passing out of the post. Florida is easy to guard, especially when Appleby isn’t hitting circus shots.

    From 6-0 and looking good to 7-3 and dropping out of the top 25. Welcome to Mediocre Mike ball! Where the defense is all man to man, all the time. Doesn’t matter if you are constantly getting beat off the dribble, we are playing man to man anyway. SMH

    I probably need to divorce myself with Florida spots . We kind of suck at all sports . Baseball ends with a 19-1 loss football well we all know, basketball very pedestrian.. I’m drunk and crying in my Dark and Stormy! With a twist “lime “

    Okay folks, let's not start with personal remarks about other members.

    I have a question for you. How does multiple posters consistently being negative season after season on a forum help change the coach at all?

    I'm not even asking sarcastically. It seems like it would be a better use of time if someone is that dissatisfied to send Skeeter Storchland an email after every loss. Or to start donating large sums of money to get some pull in the athletic department.

    People can obviously post whatever they want. I just don't understand the constant bashing of a coach while a game is on.

    When I stopped drinking my team losing doesn't bother me near as much as it used to. In fact it bothers me very little now days because it is all out of my control. Please don't take that as me preaching because it's not meant that way. Just a personal observation.

    This happened to me all the way through my graduation at UF in 2011. When we lost, I used to get so mad and it would ruin my day.

    After having to be a real adult for a while, I move on pretty easily. Having to pay real life bills did it to me. Lol.

    No leadership. And we are kinda thin inside. Maybe need to play Jit at the 5 and CC at the 4.

    I was ok with putting it in Appleby’s hands, as he had the hot hand in the 2nd half. But the first attempt seemed like we actually tried to force it to Jones, which was…. bizarre. Almost turned it over trying to get it to a guy that has he been able to hit the broad side of a barn.

    It had to be Appleby with Castleton fouled out. Wish Appleby didn’t settle though. It wasn’t a horrible look, but wasn’t exactly squared up either. It is what it is.

    I just think Felder should have gotten Jones minutes in the 2nd half as he was scoring and he is a much better defensive match-up in that game. I would like to hear that asked of MW.

    I used to stay angry for several days but that is all in the past. Like I said, I can't control it so why should I let it ruin my day. It's a game nothing more nothing less.

    Reeves wastes away on the bench while Florida loses another game it should have won

    The point isn't whether you care. The MW bashing is annoying to hear and it accomplishes NOTHING other then annoying others who also care.

    exactly. it's all about perspective. When your college team is that important, you may need to re-evaluate your priorities

    agreed, there were a lot of ticky tack calls in the last ten minutes. I thought the CC call was a little weak, but then they turn around and go no call when Jones mugged Scott on that last layup to make it 70-68. Not a lot of consistency there.

    but the calls are part of the game, we shouldn't have ever been in a position against a middling team like the Terps to have to worry about a couple of bad ones.
