    You don't think TCU has a great offense but you think UF has a great offense?

    You mean a 13 pt road loss (with a skewed score at the end) against pretty much the 2nd team (with their 3rd and 4th QBs, not the even 2nd QB) of a top 15? If Max were our starting QB, Ricky didn't play, and we're also missing both our starting DTs, the on-field result will definitely make me feel better. Although Mertz can't be compared to Rising so it's still unfair. LOL

    Not sure how you got that.I’m saying giving up 40 to TCU isn’t good.

    Kid looked awesome. Maybe we need to find a coach that has a son who is an all American QB.

    Ehm, no. Let's try to refrain from making shit up to support a position. I don't know of any Gator fans who thought we were going to win a natty based on beating Utah last year. A game we needed a last second INT in the endzone or else we almost certainly lose. Get some help while you can.

    I don't care. I've seen all the hate for Meyer post-departure. I don't care if Deion has some flaws. All coaches do. The bottom line is he's a helluva lot better than Napier. It's not just Deion. He was able to assemble a coaching staff at CU that is perhaps the best coaching staff in the nation. When you can flip a 1 win team into an instant Top 25, after completely gutting the program, I don't care if he comes out of the locker room with war paint on his face as long as he's coaching UF.

    Bro, with that one win alone, kids that would have passed on the thought of playing at CU before are now interested. Deion even admitted yesterday that some of the CU players weren't bought in before the game and commented on how that changed after the game. He will build CU into a juggernaut and then likely bounce for the league.

    You're right, man. We have a better defense than CU. We only score 11 points, but damn if that defense isn't impressive tho.

    So we gave up 24 pts to a UU team missing its stars and started a true frosh is better? LOL

    If that's the case (not trying to at least get a few) he needs to be let go immediately.

    I’m not sure what list, but we have been methodical in evaluating players so we are probably late to the party. Still waiting on workout tapes.

    Ok, so you weren’t drunk. Just delusional …I guess. Your judgement lacks any kind of perspective, reality, or common sense. Sooo …just one game …and the answer is there? Maybe you haven’t sobered up yet.

    I can’t really entertain the idea of putting a former Seminole in charge of the UF football program. It would be about like taking Nazi scientists and putting them in charge of the space program……wait, that actually turned out pretty good, so not a good example.

    My point is, I can’t root for a Nole on Saturday, it’s a non-starter for me.

    I would tend to agree, tho we did have a former Georgia player running the program.....into the ground.
