    Hard to believe . . . but it's time.

    BBQ then players report on Sunday, July 30th, and practices begin July 31st.

    Inside your head.
    If they're thinking summer in Florida is done by August 1st that proves that they are all from out of state. The dog days are just getting started. It won't really cool down until late October-early November.

    I hesitate to say this for fear of jinxing us, but this has been the quietest summer (off-field wise) that I can recall in years

    Beating Utah... that is the only goal we should have right now. And that win will take us to a whole unexpected level... unlike last year.


    Go Gators!!!

    Don’t overthink it.

    The care free days of summer (think of the lyrics to the Calvin Harris song)
    are OVER.

    Here is one more person that like Mertz. Former DC to the Gators, Geoff Collins, that agrees with my assessment of our new DC, Austin Armstrong.

    I have been posting all over these boards that we got the right man for the DC job, and more and more coaches are coming out with the same opinion. Coaches that know what they're talking about no less.

    jkl, I was thinking the same thing. Meanwhile in Athens another player cited for speeding. This time it was 90 mph in a 70 zone. After what Kirby said at SEC media days, could I make the argument that he is losing control of his players?

    It seems that with top rated players comes top rated problems. I think that's exactly what happened with Urban, you had 5 star players with entitlement attitude and then things like this happens. With programs like bama, they are able to keep it under the rug.
