I'll back off, BNA. He can low-blow me all he wants. When he goes after someone I love, the gloves are off.

It's possible to disagree without going full-bore jackass. Insults and name calling are not cool. We can disagree all we like, but there is nothing quite like civil discourse among adults who choose to associate with one another in an open forum. After all, we're all Gators here - we should honor that.

As to the original post, short term perceptions can be deceptive. Florida is down a notch or three for sure - understandably. We've really sucked for a while now. However, I think a couple of nice wins this year, that we may not expect, can be just the shot in the arm we need. #14 is a little low IMO, but sadly, not that much at this point. Go Gators!

Back to the OP theme... 'this Thread is useless without that lovable, diaper peeing, flute blower, Muncie Nole.
Just saying, any band smack makes me miss that guy, RIP.

Side Note on crossover from UF's Brands, Shands Health and UF athletics...Foley can still be a face on the Proctology department's recruitment posters. "Come to UF and you will be able to diagnose @$$holes, job guaranteed.

I'm with you on this. I really don't think it'd take long to move way up in these metrics (as faulty as they are). Jumpman, three years of progressively better recruiting classes and bowl games, and we'll be top-5. If we can start pulling in some of that IMG talent that will really turn heads.

I heard the pay sucks too.

I was a mod on a firearms forum for years and am now an administrator there. Being a mod is a thankless job and sometimes you are forced to make unpopular decisions that ruffle feathers and sometimes make people not like you. Keep up the good work mods.

The one thing that really stood out to me from that video - not only made me smile, but touched my heart and had me tear up (didn't cry, though) - was there were no images of Foley nor did I hear his voice anywhere in it. It can be good to be a Gator again.

I guess it’s one thing to have people taking shots at you here...
