    How about truth for a change. We got dominated, the fans should rightly be upset, I didn't see that coming and I need reevaluate what we are doing as a program. I will do my best to not let that ever happen again and the team feels the same way.

    I heard it straight from his mouth…he said he’s going to get it fixed. Yes, time to crack a beer and relax, guys.

    He'd get crap for that too.

    Because he has no answer to fix it. No reason to hate him for it, SEC head football coach is a tough job. But that's the reality.

    We've had the same product on the field for 2 years and a game now. We've seen this movie before. Maybe I'm pleasantly surprised, but he's not changing. And even if he does change, he sure as Hell isn't changing to the point it will make a dramatic difference this season with this schedule.

    I mean, you're right. As some Podcasters I watched said, either he lied to us about how good the team is or he genuinely doesn't know what good looks like. Either way it's bad.

    He said that in November of 2021.

    That was $21,600,000.00 ago with $24,000,000.00 yet to collect on his way out the door.

    Does he know that we can't have basements in Florida?

    This guy thinks the criticism is exclusive to internet trolls? You got dog walked by Mario Cristobal on national television.

    He is detached from reality. His problems don’t stem from a few folks in central Fla who have basements, but from the putrid and embarressing product that he has put on the field that has driven his most loyal supporters to question his competence.

    Heard some fun stats, Napier has lost as many home games in his last 3 outings as Urban did in 5 years. Also, has matched SOS career total of home losses too.

    Edit: meant to be in reply to the in your own house too.

    I would have asked him this..

    It’s year 3, you just laid a massive egg at home in front of 90k fans and you are being paid x amount of dollars to rebuild UF football.

    What can you say to GN right now for them to continue have faith, donate their hard earned money and believe that your are capable of bringing UF back to a winning program?

    Frankly he pretty much put the blame on the players. No precision, lack of execution, no consistency. One good question out of all the other soft ball questions was can you assess your role as play caller or something like that. He totally side stepped his part in the play calling.
    But as someone mentioned earlier, his press conferences is rinse and repeat.

    Billy loves Talking Season. That’s when you resort to the cliches and platitudes and the fanbase eats it up. Billy absolutely slays Talking Season.

    But Billy can’t stop the games. Exposed in the first one with eleven more to go. They’re coming.

    Other than getting Sexton when have his instincts been good?

    I believe CBN has about 28M reasons to work and say what he wants.

    Exactly. That’s precisely what that means. No better indicator at this point than dumbass nonsense like that choice of words.

    Even worse is thinking about how he likely thought that dig was so profound that he planned it out in advance and recited to himself.

    Said that most of the team showed up at the building yesterday on their day off. Problem is that not much of the team showed up on Saturday at 3:30.
