    How I wish for an at least average offense...we are well below average in the SEC not even considering the seemingly endless collection of correctible errors, poor use of the clock, lack of understanding of the value of the last two minutes of each half and refusal to adapt during halftime resulting in 3rd quarter disasters, trick plays which just flat out are circus shows and of course lack of a killer instinct when we go up on another team. I know...I know...it's year 4 and he will finally adapt (cough cough) to be a great play caller this year. No need to rock the boat.

    Do you think repeating the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over……..is actually going to change anything?

    Venting is cathartic. The other options are drinking heavily or kicking your dog, so venting seems to be the better option.

    And maybe we can manifest changes in the offense if we complain long enough. But this see no evil, speak no evil approach to how Napier is doing things is like the dog in the burning house.

    You're not changing anything by complaining here. You're way less important than you think you are.

    The problem is the "see no reality" approach. Your arguments have been refuted and every time that happens you just move the goalposts. Then when people get tired of the same repeated drivel you act like it's some kind of censorship campaign against your amazingly incisive commentary.

    What if you wait to see how DJ does in his 2nd season before whining about his coaching?

    I think we have to at this point. DJ will likely be a game changer QB this year and hopefully we dont come out like a dead fish on offense like we did last year. Im just not sure Napiers scheme plays to the DJ's true talent and that could go sideways very fast with a Qb who most would believe should be a Heisman contender at some point next year or the following. Ive got my fingers crossed someone fills Napier's ear with a few innovative plays this year and he actually runs them on the field successfully and at an opportune time.

    Been refuted? He’s 19-19 and his offense hasn’t been better than 10th in the SEC his entire tenure. You can’t refute that.

    No but calling a spade a spade is a good practice in any walk of life. Whistling past the graveyard and making excuses doesn’t change anything either.

    It must have been tough for you to finally admit defeat and tear down your Will Muschamp Gators poster when you were dreaming he would recognize his inadequacies and put a better offense on the field at some point.

    Good thing nobody's trying to refute numbers. You can see the refutations of that poster's bad arguments upthread.

    You have me mistaken for someone else. I support the Gators. I have no inherent loyalty to Billy or any of our other previous coaches. If he’s fired tomorrow, I will not shed a tear. I will drop him like a bad habit and move right on to supporting the next guy. He’s our guy until he’s not though, and I’ll do my best to support him while he’s here.

    Your constant complaining has not made the team any better than my attempts to support. Your complaining will not result in any changes you demand coming to fruition. They will happen or they won’t no matter what you do or say. Why not put the same amount of effort you put into complaining into supporting the team and it’s coach? I promise it’s less aggravating to just accept your role. The team will do what it does with or without you. If Billy calling his own plays costs him his job, so be it. That’s what he’s chosen though, so get onboard or gtfo.

    Oh they definitely try to refute numbers anything to play block for the worst UF coach in the last 30 years.

    Why do you have such a need to play fan police? Why can’t people just fan how they want too? I mean since you have been so clear it doesn’t matter.
