    I forgot who that was exactly, I was so elated that I started posting about the play call and catch.

    Mertz had 1 to Arlis in first half that was late, high, and out of bounds.

    Shoulda been fired a year ago when he wouldn’t hire an OC. Putrid.

    Only by those that had zero memory of the past. Optimism blinded many of y'all. Reality came down hard today for sunshine pumpers.

    Seriously, is there anyone left the believes in him?

    Like I intimated earlier, the bodybuilder muscles are not football muscles per se. I wonder how much leg work we actually got done... and do we even run (wind-sprints/gassers) in practice?

    Stricklin and the UAA staff due to self preservation.

    There is no more patience he can ask for. No more culture and process he can preach. No analysis of our schedule by anyone that can save Napier if he doesn’t win this year.

    Third consecutive losing season: fireable offense

    Third consecutive loss to Kentucky: fireable offense.

    Loss at home to UCF: fireable offense.

    0-9 vs LSU, UGA, F$U: fireable offense.

    Zook was fired for less. Muschamp was fired for less. McElwain was fired for less. Mullen was fired for less.

    The UAA and Stricklin are gaslighting if they dare say we need patience.

    It is pitchforks and torches time.

    I tried to be measured and polite, predicted 6-6 but also mentioned 5-7 as very realistic. But I never expected this either.

    Lose? Yeah
    Destroyed? No

    Cristobal and Napier are both in year three of taking over train wrecks.

    The contrast could not be more apparent.

    Napier is in way over his head.

    He has a shot at being the worst coach in UF history by winning %. He is on pace to be historically bad. I don't know what people need to hear/see to come to terms with this reality.

    I took shit for saying as much last year. I get he was landing DJ but he cannot call plays. Shoulda been an ultimatum.

    Vanderbilt scored 34 points today and actually defended their home field against the favored opponent. So, we’re not even Vanderbilt.

    I'd take 5-7 right now after what we saw today. I really thought 7-5 was the floor. That was textbook wishful thinking in hindsight.

    5-7? I’ll take covering the spread vs Samford at this point.
