Most of you know how I feel about Cousin Eddie. I think the presser went well, overall. Lots of coach-speak that most of us expected, and a jubilant outlook that pushed away his usual arrogant nature, that most probably didn't expect. Of course, $6 million helps anyone gain a new perspective.
For me, the most impressive aspect of his presser was how much praise and respect he gave to the Head Ball Coach. Spurrier is more than just a legendary coach, or an icon. For most of us, he is the living embodiment of everything we love about UF. I don't know if it was all an act for the presser, but it seemed genuine and sincere. That means a lot to me. It was nothing at all like the way Butters, Muschamp, or even Meyer seemed whenever Spurrier's name would come up.
I'll stop my b!+ching and moaning for now. I know what I've seen from Mullen, and I know what to expect. Hopefully, I will be pleasantly surprised on signing day, and when we kick off next season. If so, I'll gladly own it.
Until then, Go Gators.
