    One who did, got a few days off. We can be questioning but Bashing is not allowed.

    My vote is for zero tolerance. It feels like an attack on our children.

    Just a reminder that Ethan White, I believe, was our lowest rated recruit in his class.
    Yet he arguably was one of the top producers in that class- starting each game in 2022.

    You just never know about these rankings.

    Thank you Candy. These recruits are just young men. Impressionable young men. Wouldn't want my son subjected to some of the stuff said on these boards.

    Everyone should be reporting such posts to make the Mods job easier. As a community, GC posters can put a stop to the nonsense.

    I find it informative when so called "Gator Fans" are only "Gator Fans" when the team is 10-2, 11-1 or 12-0. "Take your pick".
    No team or program, ZERO, do that forever, football is cyclical, and I have seen Bama, Notre Dame, USC, Ohio State, Oklahoma, FSU, Miami, you name it, bottom out, sometimes for a decade or even longer. Since Urban left, UF has had what? three double digit wins in that time period?

    Yes it's been a tough road since the immensely successful runs of SOS and Meyer. It also PISSES me OFF that so many of these WHINERS seem CLUELESS about UF's actual history. UF football did not begin in 1990, it began in 1906. It took 85 damn years for UF to actually win an "official" SEC title!

    Some of the entitled posters need a history lesson. Do all these whiners forget about "IN ALL KINDS of WEATHER"?

    Hey man, I love the Gators, I have one sports team, UF, in every sport they play. Thats it. I don't like the NFL, the NBA or MLB.
    Other than casual looks.

    Some folks need to know their place. People post on here like the University can change coaches every year, or if the recruiting class does not fit their fancy. Like UF has 10 Billion dollars to throw away at any given moment.

    Whats the adage? Success cannot be savored unless one tastes the agony of defeat too. It's OK to be passionate about UF, but to personally disparage one's program, insult the athletes, and just be a jerk on the boards, is frustrating.

    Rant over.
