    Then we have a long season ahead of us. It's crazy tho because with the teams we have on our schedule we can flip the narrative any given week with a nice performance and a upset against an even higher rated team we play.

    We just can't play like we did today any more.

    I'm hoping

    It wasn't that he scored. It's how he scored. On a 71 yrd "explosive" run, where he out ran the defenders who were chasing him. That's exactly what people have been saying Montrell "couldn't do" all off season since ETN transferred. And he did that fresh off of minor knee surgery

    This post is great!!! Even moreso when you realize the poster himself came out from under a rock just to post this about poster hiding under rocks. LOVE the irony.

    Ron Zook just tweeted that the Gators are getting "better and better". Read it on the internet, so it must be true.

    It was a bad loss to an overrated ACC team. Napier is done. Sorry, guys.

    That's the look of a defeated individual.

    I like the guy, his values, his ethos, but it's time to move on. New AD, new coach. This season will get ugly fast, so might as well act sooner rather than later.

    This is not what the Gators should be about.

    I don't hate the guy. The job is just too big for him. I think he just found a way to get better talent than the rest of the conference at ULL and his signature win was beating an over-hyped Big 12 team (Iowa State).

    I didn't think he was the right hire at the time but I tried to convince myself that he could stockpile talent. Unfortunately, you can't do that when you don't put out a good product and in this portal era, you're not keeping most guys after a coaching change.

    Anyway, yeah, he's going to walk away from this a rich man and the rest of us can enjoy the fallout.

    Kiffin has got to be our number 1 guy now. Doing what he’s doing at Ole Miss is impressive. 94-49 career record is pretty good!

    Won’t happen but love to see Champ as DC here.

    Neither of those is happening. The Kiffin ship sailed. Should have hired him over Billy.

    Kiffin could definitely still happen. Boosters have to be tired of not competing. They are not going to keep giving money as they are getting no return on their investment.

    Idk, man. He's already making 8.5M and the Ole Miss NIL war chest is overflowing. He also only needs to be good to keep them happy. They aren't accustomed to natties. The only downside to that job is living in Mississippi but I imagine even that's not too much of a drag when you've got money.

    Pay him 9.5 and give him what he wants. He’s very talented and will excel here.
