Why would he be he is an all-time Gator and an all time NFL player.

Might be the best Gator Running back ever and top 5 NFL running back ever (personally #3).... nothing bum about that.

just petulant and childish.........but give it time........offseason is a mutha ........but at least we have morphed from the new coach is a bum and cannot recruit worth a shT and didnt do sh#T at MSU.............
Bonus Question: what was the most repeated phrase during Emmitt's 3 years at UF during a game.
The secondary phrase was usually : There he goes............

It's so strange you're so upset that Emmitt has a grudge against UF. Does it keep you up at night?

I followed Emmitts high school career the only way you could in the early 80's the newspaper and you know yourself there was plenty.
I went to fan day his freshman year and while the fans were lined up the entire length of the field my sister's included to see Kerwin, Emmitt was on the 30 yard line without a person around, it had to be a little humbling I'm sure.
That changed quickly after he burned Al-ah-fu*%ing-Bama for 200 yards . In Alabama.

I can't think another reason he left UF out of his hall of fame speech, hell he even give thanks to his H.S. coach............Maybe Emmits reading this and welcome clean.

Many of you have cited the HOF speech to deduce he has a grudge against UF and yet the only reason offered so far for having a grudge was a guess at Spurrier. This is a wild goose chase.

I just don’t think he’s all that fond of his time at UF...for reasons unknown.

I've read two "connected" accounts that point to a strained relationship with Foley. Wouldn't it please everyone if we just heaped it on top of everything else already on Foley?

Are you drunk? He IS a Gator great, who said he wasn't? But he still has a grudge against UF.

Ok give my another reason he never mentioned Florida, just forgot, No Florida is not important enough for him to mention ,the only answer.
I think a statue might help him love us again.

We'll be overrun with statues in a few years. Everyone will have a statue. There'll even be one of Foley in a pensive pose.

February 3, 1993|By Larry Guest of The Sentinel Staff
Pardon me, your E-ness, but UFlorida doesn't deserve the damaging backhand rendered by Cowboys star Emmitt Smith during Super Week. In one of the player interview sessions, Smith told Florida Today's Pete Kerasotis and several others with tape recorders he regretted going to Florida, suggesting he might have won the national title or a Heisman Trophy at run-oriented Auburn and lamenting a batch of letters with racial epithets from Gator fans when he left UF a year early.
FWIW Larry Guest became one of those that SOS had nothing to do with. Now I can see why.
