    I developed asthma when I moved back. I’ve always had allergies, but they’ve been off the charts since moving back to Gainesville. Took one of the allergy test and I’m allergic to everything in the yard and most of the stuff in the house. No food allergies, just everything else well at least everything inside….and everything outside.

    Amigo, I rarely disagree with you, but Billy doesn't seem the type to willfully do that, unlike Prime. I give Billy the benefit of the doubt for intentions.

    I just read that Dawg fans are very upset with Kirby Smart and Mike Bobo for such miserable coaching and a piss-poor showing against Kentucky.

    1. Mike Stoops is a great coach. Great defensive mind, usually has a decent offense as well. They're a well-coached team.
    2. If Georgia fans are upset about a poor showing, particularly after a years of exemplary winnings and titles. "Huston, we have a problem."
    3. Entitlement runs deep, particularly when winning is all you know.
    4. The fall to mediocrity, (losing a couple games :rolleyes:) will be painful :mad:
    I'm feeling impatient and sad as a Gator. But I know we can only go up from here!!

    It's great to-be a Florida Gator.:p

    Go Gators.:)

    If only it would ever work that way again for as long as football is played.

    I was at a wedding yesterday and missed the game. What happened with Johnson? 7 carries for-7 yards?

    After watching Kentucky play with as much physicality as Georgia, and we can't even play with a first year coaching staff with Texas A&M in our own stadium, it is time to clean house from top to bottom. Period! What a joke.

    I don't anymore. The likes of Hocke still on this staff doing nothing apparently for 750k a year? Paying an army to get worse results than ever before. If this was the government we would be asking for congressional hearings for this level of incompetence.

    Used cars salesman make you think they are a good guy here to help you. Then you come to your senses years later that you paid 20% above market and got 18% apr for 7 years.

    Now we're starting to see players liking posts about him being fired, I smell smoke. Billy would probably tell me it's ok, he's got a warranty plan for that, it just costs 26 million dollars.

    Yep - UCF's defense is average, but they have an offensive line and can really pound the ball with a physical QB, an AA-type runnings back and several other RB's who are very good. They will probably dominante the line of scrimmage and control the clock on us. Pity how fall the one mighty Gators have fallen in football.

    I would have sent Hocke packing but….he was getting paid $750,000 for one year whether he was still on staff or not- he was under contract for another year.

    Yes, and UCF will be fired up and ready to play us, as their staff will understand the importance of the game and our coach will be like, " Hopefully we play well" and suck.

    Wasn’t that exactly the point, Billy's friend Hocke is getting paid handsomely for being incapable of doing the job he was hired to do? His buddy Roberts got brought in to coach another coach that was sub par, and thus far has managed to set a new bar for ineptitude.

    There is a point at which gross incompetence starts flirting with malicious intent. It's when there is a irreconcilable convergence of "he not that oblivious" meets "then how does it get this bad."

    Sorry, Walrus, but I can't believe that. My faith in human beings prohibits me from that.

    Commendable. Maybe I'm falling into to that human condition of trying to find answers for the inexplicable.

    It is similar to a lifelong beautiful woman being able to identify a playa from a non-playa in less than 30 seconds...

    Because it could be even worse? Disagree? Gator fans said the same in 2004. I'm old enough to remember when it WAS worse than then, and worse than now...

    ...although Billy is pushing the Dickey envelope HARD...
