    Especially a fan base at a school that wins at literally everything else and can’t even field a decent, watchable team in the top half of the league in its by far biggest sport and biggest money-maker, at the biggest school in an absolute breeding ground for top talent and a alumnus that has a LOT of money /boosters that are (now, finally) willing to pay up.

    Any fanbase with those kinds of resources and that kind of success everywhere else would be in total shock at the general disgrace of the product we’ve seen for the last 15 years. A school like Florida SHOULD have a level of entitlement embedded into its fanbase. This isn’t Sanford! We should expect more, a hell of a lot more and we DESERVE a hell of a lot more….we’re the freaking Florida Gators playing at the SWAMP. That used to mean something!

    the fact that we might get beat at home to the UCF freaking Knights, a school in the same state that has almost zero history and barely a campus? It’s pathetic, and has to change. Let’s just bring in Tim Tebow as a coach and call it a day, no coaching experience aside. Heck, give him a lifetime contract. At least he CARES about winning and would DEMAND that out of his players and coaches.

    For not being “toxic” they rode frank solich out of town pretty fast even though he was winning 8 or 9 games per year.

    Looks a lot like Sam Kinison (RIP) to me. One of the very funniest comedians ever

    You can be snarky. But saying I don’t get around much is funny. Fans really don’t know their ass from third base. And Gator fans piss me off with these stupid expectations. We are an average program and have been except a couple of windows. Maybe you need to get around a little more??

    I guess you don’t have to worry about getting hit in the head with that joke. It sailed right over! o_O

    Even more recently, Nebraska only gave Mike Riley 3 years before firing him and hometown hero Scott Frost got fired after the 3rd game in his fifth season.

    Referring to the Spurrier and Meyer eras? Tells me how critically important is the HC. Hard to find a complete CEO/HC.

    The joke is that Bo Pelleni looked like Sam Kinnision when he was screaming, which was all the time. The picture IS Sam Kinnison.

    Well hell I called that. Then I guess I didn’t miss the joke after all.

    What would have been funnier is if you’d posted a pic of Muschamp screaming instead of Sam Kinison. I’d post one but continue having difficulties posting simple pictures. But I can do videos - go figure…
