WHAT Will/Needs TO HAPPEN IN YEAR THREE!

20 miles the first hour, 20 miles the second hour, 60 miles the third hour, 80 miles the fourth hour and 480 the fifth hour get you to Key West on time.

 

What do you sell as a recruiter your first couple years on a 5 year plan? Hey come to UF, by the time you're gone we might be good.

 

Setting the world's land-speed record on the bridges between the Keys!

(None of them are draw bridges, are they?)

 

I guess don’t lose the Georgia Southerners, good advice,

 

Pull over…. Please

 

win 8-9 games

 

AHHHHHHHHHH!

 

There's a lot to sell to recruits to come play for the University of Florida. Our coaches are selling and putting our team together in a good way. Just because you can't see the benefits of coming to UF, that doesn't mean they don't exist (I believe most of us know what they are)..

 

There’s an investigator form the NCAA on line two for you.

 

What we think the benefits are versus what the players think are often two different things.

 

You mean $13 million dollars

 

Let's be real. I'm in HS, 4* OL with offers from 20+ P5 schools. Lifelong Gator fan. UF offers 500k, UGA offers 1 million. I'm going to UGA. 18 years old with an opportunity to secure a lifechanging amount of wealth, not only for me but also for my family. Not just for myself either, if I had a nephew or something with that same choice, I'm telling him to go to UGA. Now, if the difference is negligible, say less than 10%, then of course now I'm focusing on all the other factors.

 

I would say that the primary focus is not what they are spectating, but writing about what they are spectating, as the event itself is irrelevant. The 'addiction' is not to spectating, but writing about it.

 

For most (not all) of the Gator players, or at least those for which this applies, "It's great to be anywhere that pays, gives me more PT, or gets me to the NFL." How many of these athletes have the school spirit we have? Very few could be accepted here academically. The ideals we have for our school died with We Are The Boys. I am among the few of those who opposed permanently replacing WATBOOF with Don't Back Down. It should have been a one off after Tom died, but hey, that's another conversation.

"In all kinds of weather, we all stick together for F-L-O-R-I-D-A..."

RIP

 

With the upcoming schedule, I think 7-8 wins, including bowl game, is the realistic target. It will truly depend on if our defense improves, and by what degree it does. If that defensive line performs better than last season, definitely looks better on paper at the moment, then that helps everything behind them, and gives our offense more opportunities. The new defensive coaches we have, should hopefully fix any cohesive issues/rifts we had between defensive coaches last season. Also, with the addition of Roberts, if he can somehow even mirror Auburn’s defense last season, then I definitely think that win number goes up by 2. If we had Auburn’s defensive numbers this past season, we probably win 3 more games last season, plus whatever would’ve happened in the bowl game. Either way, I’m ready for it.

 

That's pretty much a 5-10 year ago view, today it's all about the money. I think there are very few players now (especially highly rated) that are in it for the school. Unfortunately, I think those days are gone.
