    That's all fine and good... Show me what that means on the football field in games this coming year.

    Here's more news on the Gators, this time by ESPN. Not a bad ranking at all.

    Impressed with Boireau's work in the weight room and training table. Not so much with his driving.

    Is the first weight listed their weight at arrival for Spring training?

    Aaron Chiles is big if 230+. Has the size already but would think will need time.

    FWIW, we were preseason FPI "ranked" at 18 last year and finished at 41.

    So according to this article, uh....

    Damieon George lost 17lbs of fat and gained 15 pounds of muscle, resulting in a net weight loss of 14 pounds.

    My math says that's -2 pounds. Can someone explain? (My wife has already suggested it's because I'm dumber than a short stick.)

    Interesting and shows how difficult our schedule is as it’s predicting us to win 6 games.

    Six wins includes some Quality wins with that schedule. Every win on top of six is pretty much outdoing, every prediction by anybody

    ^this should be included as a footnote every time our schedule is posted or mentioned.

    I'm full of kool-aid though so I could see us in Jax at 7-0 where anything can, and has, happened.

    I don't agree with the wins/losses part.
