So why don't you tell us the reasons - that Pouncey is keeping to himself - as to why he crossed off the Gators (other than the boilerplate lazy, bad recruiters, too slow, too folksy and other unsubstantiated reasons).

What's more ludicrous is you blaming the staff for correctly slow playing a 3* who we are only discussing because of his last name. Look, it's fine If you want to make negative inferences ad nauseum based upon circumstantial evidence for each bit of perceived bad "news," but your credibility in doing so goes off the deep end when you do things like blame the staff for this Pouncey deal or try to compare kids who have never played a down in college to Perine.

Of course, the credibility thing matters only if your comments were worth a damn to begin with. I try to read them at face value for the most part, but that's just me....

Again, I call it like I see it. It's a **** show. All I hear from pumper land is "no one says they are happy" yet they come on here full blast on anything that is remotely negative about MAC and CO. Just once...I'd like a pumper to admit that Mac isn't doing a great job. Just once...

Easy. Mac is not doing a great job - I would think the majority of 'pumpers' on the board agree with you.
On the other hand, you're doing a great job of.......................
:alone:
because you can't seem to be able to drag the rest of us down into the dark hole that is apparently your existence.

Mac isn't doing a great job. I've said it before.. I'll say it now... as will most other pumpers.

What I won't do is slam him for stuff when I don't know if he was truly the issue...

The period after NSD should be interesting. I can tell you if he makes some more mediocre hires this time around, it will smack of him being caught with his pants down and is another indictment that he may not be the right coach for UF.

You know it. I'm chopping up little puppies right now. Later on I plan on giving wax food to the homeless.

His last hire was excellent. His first hires were the problem.

Mac sucks at recruiting and is likely a dead man walking. Must it be repeated in every response? Someone can say "the sun is hot" and the next post will be Mac sucks, the staff sucks and everyone needs to be fired.

Pouncey sucks though and we haven't given him anything commitable. Sorry you suck bruh and sorry your cousins are murderer loving period blood stains on gator history.
But when u see them again, or ever, thank them, and we'll keep the NC trophies.

This revisionist history has to stop. It won't be long before the Muschumpers have him winning the NC that year before being fired unfairly.
Wasn't he 11-1 in the regular

Putting TRex on "ignore" was possibly the very best thing I did for myself in 2016. I highly recommend it.

Now I see a few postings that don't make complete sense until I realize there was something I didn't see that provoked/inspired the response. But once I recognize that, which means that TRex was involved, I am never curious enough to want to dig deeper.

It's like this:
* you're walking down the sidewalk
* you see a pile of dog poo right in the middle of the concrete, a few steps ahead
* what kind of a crazy person decides on purpose that he/she is going to deliberately step in that???
That last part is funny.

I think the article agrees with about 99.99% of what others are saying. I haven't read a single post on this board that implies anyone is satisfied with the current status quo. If I'm wrong, find one for me.

It's not any better on other sites right now. I can see the pumpers sitting in their recliners wearing their stained Back-to-Back SEC East champs t-shirts, eating a tub of ice cream and switching between women's gymnastics and Joel Osteen.

I like to accentuate the positive, but that's hard to do regarding recruiting and the way hiring is being handled. Mac does seem to be a bit out of his depth. Maybe this off season will be a teaching moment for him, and he'll learn to figure out how to get and stay on top of things.

Let's hope that whoever he hires is worth the wait.

It would be great if he's right, but he has us signing 29 recruits and I don't think we have that many available scholarships.
He has us loosing Blades, but we should have enough room for that considering we haven't hit 85 in years to my knowledge before awarding walk ons and the ability to count guys back.

I only counted 25. It would suck to lose out on Elijah Blades this late in the process, but that class might be as good as we can hope for at this point.

Questions:
Do you blame pumpers (on this site) for the state of the football program?
Why all the hate toward anyone with a positive attitude?
Were you abused as a child?
How tall are you?

I cannot enjoy myself as a Gator fan dedicating myself to our Gators' gloom and doom.
I will always look forward to seeing orange & blue uniforms running over opponents and
fleet O&B WRs racing downfield. Bring on our 2017 season.
