Agree. Surprises me to see Franklin considered by anyone as a decent candidate. Not saying the coach needs to be perfect but that rape scandal was horrific.
Yea, I wasn't trying to defend Dickey's record per season. . Pretty frustrating period given the talent he had. I will say he would have had one bowl win if not for a horrible call in the Sugar Bowl vs Nebraska taking away a tony green TD.
I know it's hard to believe, but I have a life outside this forum. Out of town and dealing with family/house/ cane issues. As to your ?, maybe this will help you -. 1.Recall listening to Reeves/Durance and Company on the radio as a teen. 2.Watched the "4th and dumb* game as a student in a Gville bar thinking it would be our first sec title. Most frustrating game ever. Some solid RBs on that team. 3. Watched Tony Green get shafted by the refs costing us a Sugar Bowl win over Nebraska. Still covered the spread so I won a bet with a girl who paid it off with a big jar full of coins covered in syrup. 4. Watched Gators beat Ga on a 2 pt conversion one year, then lost to them on a failed 2 pointer the next year. Costing us again an sec title. 5. Huge Wes Chandler fan. 6.. "1,2,3,4 give that ball to Nat Moore". 7. Never lost to FSU while I was in school. 8. Miami really wasn't a rival got seats on the 50 for that game one year 9. Less than 30K students at UF 10. M/F ratio at UF was around 55/45 M as compared to today s 45/55.
Agreed, pretty much in the Briles category. Given the Vandy scandal, kind of ironic he would end up at Penn st. Still, it was 10 years ago.
Funny you make a point of declaring you have a life outside this forum, and then give me 10 answers to my question Interesting points you bring up, including Tony Green getting shafted in that Sugar Bowl vs. Nebraska. The damn ref who called him out of bounds ran from the complete opposite side of the field to overrule the ref who was running right behind Tony the whole way down the sideline and called him inbounds. Which of course the replay showed he never stepped out. One of my first experiences with crooked refs. So, you’ve clearly been around as long as I have, which makes it very surprising that you defend Doug Dickey. To this Gator who entered UF as a freshman in 1971, Dickey was awful. Didn’t even know how to use Nat Moore! Anyway, I won’t argue it anymore with you. Thanks for some memories good and not so good.
Couldn't get past your first paragraph. The jerk quotient is pretty high with that post. Just because I have time this PM doesn't mean I was sitting on my ass previously. Have a good day. Adios.
Faking an injury I wouldn’t like but the Australian guys are bringing flops over and they are just pathetic and so integral. I mean Coach always said he was an Old Testament guy but I’ve always looked at him or ultimately a man of honor and integrity. I can forgive a couple “stay down Dannys” but what’s you’ve had Kiffs career, you just gotta determine when the line is grosser by swimming out of one school who gave you your start and then suck at your dream job and then I respect what he’s done mostly since which is why I would still watch the Gators. Last turnstile I truly would have not rooted for him was pretty deep. If it came to it, I would give him a shot IF HE WANTED it and pay him a lot but don’t with these buyouts. Finally he made me actually feel bad for the Vols once and that is unforgivable but maybe it he showers me with diamonds and is legitimate contrite; I could learn to life with a that. Either I’d just love it if Napier just wins out!
I don’t know what you guys are talking about but you spent a lot of time and words to talk about how busy you were and couldn’t respond or reply. Since it looks like you guys are in a public pissing match over who could care less, I declare you the loser on this one.
On top of that, Franklin embraces Pedo State's history of rape culture. Under his own watch, upperclassmen football players were "hazing" (borderline molesting) underclassmen and he just blew it off like it was no big deal. Yetur Gross-Matos, Micah Parsons, and a couple other guys forcing all kinds of messed up, closeted homosexual acts on other players against their will. I don't understand how it all got swept under the rug. James Franklin is a loser, he's a fraud, and he's a true POS.
