6. Florida $147.1 million
1-year change +18.1%
5-year change +25.6%
Donations $58.1 million
Licensing/Rights fees $55.5 million
3-year avg. football revenue $72.9 million
3-year avg. men's basketball revenue $11.5 million

We're ne spot behind Bama but we don't have the money to build what we need :rolleyes3:

And if we had a championship contending football team, the football revenue and the donations will go up.

If this deal with Kelly falls through (I don't think it will but it is possible), then it will not be Strickland's fault. The people to blame will be the Board of Trustees. They are the ones that approve finances and facilities, and if they aren't willing to make the upgrades, it's because they don't care about winning championships. Big time coaches, AD's, etc. Want to work for schools that are invested in their athletic programs. We are about to see how much the people in charge of UF actually care about football (or actually making money from it).

No, parking during the week at UF is a b*tch, this would be next level exacerbation. Students would burn down the school faster than Nuss calls a screen pass on 3rd and 20

I agree....parking at UF has to be the worst than at any other D1 university. It was more or less a "what if" statement, but there really isn't a solution that will be agreed upon by everyone.

He supposedly has found out that mac was promised one budget for asst's and was given a much lower budget once he was already signed. Kelly wants to make sure that doesn't happen to him.

Anyone that supported Foley before needs to read this very carefully. Foley is a scourge on our football program. F Foley. Worst football AD ever. He can take that Sears trophy and shove it up his ass. #throatpunch

Foley worked his way up from selling tickets at the box office. Looks at how he dresses up. I talked to him once during the 90s. He is a gentleman in a dog eat dog world. Does not fit with the current society.

UCF is also awful, U Can't Find parking. I think the current plan that UF has already put out at putting a new baseball stadium by softball is the best bet.

The Board. Interestingly, the chair, a Florida and Harvard grad, has interests in real estate and two of its members are from the building industry. You would think they get it.

So here’s a suggestion. Why don’t we change the thread title to “Chip Kelly to be Hired TOMORROW!” And then don’t ever change it. Eventually, some day, the thread title will be correct for a change.

I agree. This place is stale as *uck. The old guard is about as lively as the last seven years of Gator football, annoyingly predictive and painfully sad. Time to bring in the new guard, a new culture of posters to help usher in a new era of Gator dominance.

I wonder if Gary Campbell is considering coming w' Kelly? He was the RB's coach at Oregon for years. I remember seeing a clip on game day about how he trained his RB's eyes using a laser pointer in a dark room. Pretty interesting all the training he put the RBs through.
