    Ethan had 4 years here. Perhaps did not like the new OL coaches. May have preferred Mullen and Hev? Maybe did not like the way OL coaches talked or spoke to him? Perhaps wanted to play for championships? Perhaps wanted some NIL and was told no? All SEC 2nd team with lot for first teams going pro. Should be some nice NIL in his future. Not like he left during the season like Braun. Speaking of which, coaches should have treated him better, as he could be the starter now. By the way, White and Tarquin loved Braun. Look at wedding pics, all the times they are at restaurants together, … You treat a friend poorly and don’t play him at all and if could come back to bite you the next year.

    IRT Braun, I am more in favor of playing the person who earned PT rather than try to keep someone happy. If they don't want to compete for positions here, then perhaps leaving is better for them.

    Probably more so because of Gervon’s response to it.

    That is a problem.

    These players got used to an easy life and don't want to do what's necessary to take the next step. It's easy in high school when you're the best player on the field. Big difference when you hit college and everyone is equal to or better than you.

    Addition by subtraction. You can't win with players that won't work. For that matter you can't win with coaches that won't work.

    I'm glad he expects a lot from them. That's the only way to be successful. It also will prevent the inevitable consequwnce of NIL - having a locker room full of prima donnas.

    We can’t predict how his tenure will be at UF but i love what’s happening with the roster. Anyone who doesn’t want to be here, can go.

    No player is bigger than the program and getting these young kids to realize that and buy in to whatever culture he wants to create will help the rebuilding. You want to get a point where you have a program like Bama and having 2 potential top 10 picks (Young and Anderson) still wanting to play in a "meaningless" bowl game because they love the program, culture, and team mates THAT much

    if he has to go about that by tearing it down and building it back up, I back that.

    Lastly, I would love for the new president to sack Stricklin tbh. He’s not built for the AD job at UF

    No population in Oklahoma. Surprised New York and Illinois have almost none.

    Like we all say. CBN and every other UF coach needs to lock down Fla recruiting.

    One school can't realistically locked down a state like Florida that has so many blue chip players. Unfortunately we can't change history and the teams that have been poaching our states best The last decade or so like bama Clemson, Ohio state, In Georgia Have all established a pattern of success Recently. what we can do is try to minimize how many Other teams come in and poach elite players From Florida and focus on shutting down Miami and fsu's recruiting as much as possible

    I think he undervalued Trask because he couldn’t run also. Same classic dumb shit the nfl by drafting qb’s for their legs when they aren’t great in the pocket.
