    yep and his top recruits from the 2022 cycle all played early and played often and the ones that didnt, outside of Mitchell being a surprise, are redshirting as expected. This staff evals are on point and going over folks heads who dont follow Gator recruiting as we do

    No doubt. We are all disappointed but geez, we aren’t that good and the kids and coaches gave effort and could’ve won against a decent team.

    He did make a good play several yards( ok maybe only a couple yards) to his left yesterday. He didn’t make those plays early in the year.

    That's also where I see CN changing the culture of the program. They were resilient and in the 3Q could have lost focus and composure, but they turned it around. Last year, that didn't happen.

    CN was also willing to say goodbye to players that weren't supporting the culture, knowing that could weaken the defense in the short term, to send a message about the team. Overall, the future looks good.

    True Tommy, lack of speed on defense is our downfall plus very weak tacking skills if we can catch them.

    1. Our defense is terrible. Hopefully, it's because we have inexperienced players and that will improve drastically next year. However, toward the end of the game, our guys were not ready to play on a critical third and short. They looked like they were looking for the call from the sideline and got it really late. FSU snapped the ball and ran it around the right side with no chance of our guys making the play. That is not a player's fault. That is a coaching fault.
    2. I agree that 38 points should have won the game. But, we were down by 7 with about 4 minutes left. It didn't appear that we had any kind of urgency with our offensive players. And the play calling again left me scratching my head on what the heck we are doing. We probably wasted a minute of time on that last drive.
    3. Why can't AR make a simple 5-10 yard throw? I mean, it's either a fastball that is behind the receiver or it's low and the receiver has to make a great catch, gather themselves and then try to make a play. I compare these types of throws to Shaq and free throws. It's like it's almost foreign for him to throw an accurate, catchable ball.
    4. I've come to the realization that playing in Tallahassee is equivalent to going to a brothel. You are more likely than not to get screwed. That last non-call of a facemask penalty was atrocious. We seemed to get called every time one of our players has a hand anywhere near a facemask.

    Dean, Miller, Burney, Dexter, Lee, Princely, Johnson, Torrence, Hill, Helm, Marshall etc. are not inexperienced players. The vast majority of the guys on D have been getting snaps anywhere from 2-4 years now.

    Luckily for us, maybe 1-2 of those players are back for next year.

    Maybe next year we'll have a passing qb as opposed to a non running running qb who passes instead of runs.

    Team doctor needs to prescribe Mounjaro asap. If not controlling weight under strict observation, he needs medication help, and Mounjaro will do it.
