    I seriously think i would trust Mertz or Lagway to call a huddle and draw a play in the grass with their finger over the BS we saw today. It would at least be GO PAST THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE AND THEN.......

    They panned to him when Lagway came in, said something about co-OC and was calling the plays when Lagway came in. How they knew that is a question to ask them.

    Billy’s stubbornness to hire an OC will be his ending much like keeping Grantham was Mullen’s. The over/under on Strickland/Napier’s longevity at UF is 3/5 weeks. Not looking good for the duo!

    When Kiffen was at Tennessee, he gave Gator fans the finger when he went into the lockerroom at halftime.

    No thanks.

    What's wrong with that? Would it have been better to give the finger to his own fans?

    Thank you, as I said, I muted the game by then and missed that.

    You can have Stricklin’s head, too.

    There’s the insanity of repeating the same failed cycle of plays with minimal change in the pattern that make what we do utterly predictable.

    We were wrong about him and he was wrong about us. Let’s grow … together.

    He is. That’s what was thrown in his face many times when he brought up Napiers issues. I was probably one of them. He’s delivering plates of cold crow.

    We're the laughing stock of college football.

    Let's end this experiment and move on.

    I would not say we are Vanderbilt. More like Mississippi State. Ring any bells?

    There's never a bad time to give UT fans the finger. Come to think of it, he basically did at the end of that season.

    And this statement is why we'll have a hard time getting out of this perpetual down period we're in because we're not hiring the right coaches based on dumb things like this

    He thought he had one more year of his play-calling... He might have miscalculated.

    i think sometimes his attempts at offensive imagination are worse than not trying at all. taking up precious practice time for plays that get nowhere in game situations versus focusing on those plays that will get us yards and perfecting them

    I would take the Zooker over BN any day. Zook went 7-4 and got canned.
