Yeah that is what I am saying, put together a collective group from here and we could get Gator athletics turned around. The whole athletic office should be cleaned out top to bottom. In a year or 2 we would be top 3 in the nation with the best facilities with no expenses spared.
Ive seen this so many times.Say what you will, but the general sentiment of this board dating back to the old GSMB days has been very prescient in relation to Gator sports and the school's direction.

It is basically the story of the Cincinnati Reds. They were a powerhouse until the late 70s, then they got a new owner and GM who just wanted to milk every penny out of what he bought.
She was a nutso for sure but she didnt destroy the franchise. She actually tried to build it back and nearly did before her Trumplike mouth was her downfall.Marge Schott was a classic. Didn't she once say something to the effect of "Hitler was good in the beginning but went too far?"
If I were an owner I would have been sad to see her go, because you knew no matter what you said, ol Marge had said something worse.She was a nutso for sure but she didnt destroy the franchise. She actually tried to build it back and nearly did before her Trumplike mouth was her downfall.
Good post, so far. A little wordy for my taste. Hope to finish reading over lunch.
I can name a dozen posters that could do a better job than Fuchs/Strick.

That’s the ultra comical part of Gator athletics right now. I think he’s being exaggerative, but it’s probably also not terribly far from the truth.
Have a spring game. Recognize where profits come from and prioritize both resources and demands accordingly. Act like you’re not intentionally trying to isolate at least half of the fan base. And kindly launch anyone within the program that doesn’t share that vision. Those simple steps would solve a massive amount of problems and it took about 30 seconds to come up with them.
It was Eric Davis and Dave Parker. I always thought Howard Metzenbaum was far more disgusting for trying to launch government witch hunts into her business affairs and her personal belongings. It isn't against the law to be controversial and outrageous.She also talked about her "million dollar n-words" at one point (I think it was Eric Davis and Barry Larkin). Oddly, the players almost to a man seemed to love her, despite herself.
