    Happy Birthday Coach Spurrier

    He was equally a yes man for Machen and yet he occasionally gets credit for Meyer, which is insanely laughable. Jeremy Foley is nothing but a poser as is his successor.

    Happy Birthday Coach Spurrier

    I suspect the lean toward Archer was Arnsparger's doing and Foley was simply playing the role of yes man, for which he was well suited. If he had no clue what to hire after Meyer left, he certainly didn't back in 1990. Spurrier was seen as outside the tough-defense SEC mold and questioned of...

    Happy Birthday Coach Spurrier

    "Obviously, Spurrier eventually found his way back to the SEC, as he was hired in 1990 by Florida. The athletic director for the Gators at the time was Arnsparger, who had advocated on his way out for Archer to replace him at LSU when Spurrier was available and wanted the Tigers' job. With...

    Kentucky Bball in Shambles: Hiring a bum from BYU

    Donovan to Lexington probably comes off as a sacrilege. So would have SOS to South Carolina 20 years ago. At the end of the day, it always comes down to fit and finish. Donovan will likely be looking for work as it is. I don't want to see him go there, but I won't be shocked if he does.

    Gatorchatter SOLD: Under new management

    Unless the changes being contemplated involve a new head coach, a new OC, a new DC and a new AD, I don't think it's going to make a shyt bit of difference. This place, as was the case at the laughably rundown GSMB, was always about the product on the football field. The bells and whistles were...

    The Current State of Gator Sports

    In the NFL you have a team president and a GM. We all know the division of labor. In college, the AD is asked to serve as both. Sometimes, he's a jack of all trades. Sometimes he's a jackoff. In 2016, we hired a jackass.

    So you're saying we actually are distinguishable from Kentucky?

    Flush with cash, indistinguishable from Kentucky, as exciting as Vandy.

    Birthday Happy Birthday 78!

    First thing I thought of when I got out of bed, besides my aching back, was my Geritol. Second was being late for my urology appointment. Third was getting lost on the way there because I couldn't find my glasses. Fourth? I don't know. I forgot. It sucks getting old but you know what they say...
