    So...the take away here is to create accounts in other forums and trash their coaches as a "fan" of said program. Brilliant!

    I think he meant he got the room fired up and excited.

    CBN will be the coach at the start of 2025. He gets canned this year, DJ portal outs and may never have taken a snap.

    Nick Saban is positioning himself to become our head coach in 2025. He’s just taking a sabbatical now.

    We are closer to hanging half a hundred on teams than we are holding people to 14 or less.

    Every year quality qb's enter the portal. UF can't be held hostage as to what DJ does or doesn't do. Another 5-7 win season or 6-7 season will turn top recruits away. There is no way in heck that with that kind of record BN gets an extension. He is the proverbial dead man walking without a winning season. The gut punch of it all is that he was given everything and I do mean everything he wanted to move this program forward and if things don't change the program could be left in worse shape than when he came.
    I hope this doesn't happen.

    If they teach players to line up correctly, wait til the ball is snapped to move, cover who you're supposed to, tackle, catch the ball, basically all the basics, then I'll be happy. I can deal with it if we get beat by a better team. It's the sloppy play that really irks me.

    Nobody holds teams to less than 14 across the board. Michigan just set a modern football record holding all its opponents to less than 25.

    We don't need a tremendous defense to improve substantially, we just need a functional defense. If we had that last year we win 3 more games.

    I would of course like some improvement in offensive philosophy. But, we are years away from 10 wins.

    Should have clarified, 14 points per game AVERAGE. There have been many teams that have done that. Even our beloved Gators in 2006 held teams to 13.5 points per game with a couple shut outs.

    With next years schedule? Make a bowl game and bring in a top 10 recruiting class. Anything less and its probably time to start searching for a new HBC.

    Since I have no say in the program or who is running it, I can only address my own actions. I must cheer louder, send more money, and remember that I hate switching coaches every three years because it can kill a program.
