Spring ball: Spring Scrimmage on Saturday

[Concrete Helmet]

how many years have you said last year was 07 and this year was good?

Wait until August when Shane gets drunk before a podcast and proclaims "this is the best UF team he's seen in 15 years" like he did last year.....the whole "last year was 07" thing will go to another level

Honestly I’m somewhat glad that it sounds like DJ struggled a little bit. My feeling has been that the best thing for this team is for Mertz to be the undisputed “guy” heading into the fall. This really will probably give us the best chance for a respectable season next year. DJ has a championship future ahead of him but Murda Mertz just gives us a solid floor to work with

If it's better, I'll take better for now.

I'm not going to say "the defense can't be worse" because ...
it can.

Well, Shane figures lying for Stricklin beats blowing for cigarettes.

How many years have you said last year was 07 and this year was good? Since 2015?

Not going to bother showing you the talent differences, or the stats that shows that the 07 defense was a top 40 defense not a 120th. There are literally zero players on this team that would start on the 07 or 08 defense. Zero.

And if you think Billy Retard's 60th ranked scoring offense was "ok", welcome to Vanderbilt.

At least you took the personal shots out when you edited this one.

It's best to avoid those kinds of statements.

See, progress is possible. Follow the process.

He is too nice of a guy.

Does he? Really? I have never seen a QB do it alone. We better step up some recruiting quick.

I was about to say it's only spring and Donk is already throwing high inside fastballs

He means after he transfers.

Jeez guys get real. The defense needs improvement more than anything. The offense the last two years has been ok, not horrible. Just nothing like we expect ala SOS or Meyer days. Remember the struggles of the ‘07 defense? They were super young but talented recruits, similar to last years defense. A year later the ‘08 defense was stellar. I’m saying we’ll see this type of turnaround, but there’s reasons to think we will improved. I’d rather hear the defense is ahead of the offense at this point. We have some weapons on offense returning from last year.

The offense has been freaking horrible for 14 years. And it's been muschamp bad the last 3. What hard drugs are you taking?

Two were by Lagway so it's not a big deal. The other, I'm guessing, was by another backup.

I knew Lagway would be a bust, just didn't want to rain on the positive feeling of landing a perceived next gen QB. Napier's compensation averages to about $1.2 million per win and I expect Lagway's NIL compensation of $250k per season to average to about $50 per interception.

On a serious note, is Lagway a running QB, or was he in HS? It seems like he's put on a lot of weight, just wondering if he was supposed to stay reasonably light and projected to be a duel threat type player.

You don’t think it’s possibly a tad early for that considering you haven’t seen him throw an actual GD pass yet?

He's a pocket passer with wheels.

It’s never too early for him to bash the team.
The hate is strong.
