While I'm fantasizing, having both KT and MJ sniffing 1,000 yards would be huge. I'd happily take 800+ from both. I think both have the talent for it and their contrasting styles will wear down defenses. Do we have the OL and scheme for it?
Adding the other 3, our backfield really is stacked - best in a long time.

The point was 3 realistic goals for the SEASON (based on last year's epic disaster and the overall CURRENT state of the program), not for the program in perpetuity.
Your pervasive negativity is mind-blowing. How do you get out of bed each morning?

If you, and others, will take everything he posts in the context that he's not a fan of the program, it'll explain everything. I'm not sure why he was allowed to troll GSMB for years, and can only assume he's allowed to do so here because we're trying to get the post counts up on a new board. For the new members here who weren't a part of GSMB, Lawgator is one of the most hated anti-Florida posters that board ever had, along with guys who were banned Gatorsidney and Canething. Whenever you engage with him, just know where he's coming from, most likely a Tennessee fan. Don't be fooled by the occasional "taylormade" crap or the back-handed compliments, or the throw-in "that was a nice play" posts on game threads. He does that because he thinks it throws people off and makes us think, hmm, maybe he really is a Gator fan. That, and the fact that he sucks up to the mods via private emails is what has kept him around, I guess. He hates Florida and the people who love Florida, always has. Remember that.Gatorbreath said:

#3 won't happen, in fact, it's more likely that you'll be banned for suggesting he be banned. At this point, it's an act. He plays the role of controversial troll under the guise of a "keeping it real" Gator fan. I know you aren't fooled by him, but we have a duty to make sure newer members don't fall for his act and take him seriously.Captain Sasquatch;n29490 said:

Realistic Goals was the question. We all want to win the SEC and NC, but that seems like a tall order this year. No one is happy about last year, let it go and try rooting for your team (if in fact you are a Gator).Law98gator;n29187 said:

That's never happened a single time.The Original DC;n29512 said:
I don't believe one iota of this. If you'll remember right, law had the most posts of anyone on the GSMB. He was as big of a pumper as ANY of us before the last couple of years. I don't consider you, myself, or anyone else on this board a bigger Gator fan than he is. As far as I know, he's been a proud alum for a long, long time. He didn't just show up one day and start trolling, or he WOULD have been banned. He was right there for years with the rest of us enjoying the Tebow era and ripping our rivals to shreds.The Original DC;n29512 said:
He's just pissed. That is something he told me privately once. He sees Muschamp as taking his beloved Gators and grinding them under his feet. He's mad at what has been done to the program under this coach. He's mad at the bar being lowered. I think he's also incredulous that a lot of fans aren't as mad as he is.
Is he alone in thinking this way? Not at all. As of right this moment, law represents the feelings of a significant chunk of the Gator Nation. This is another reason I was so pissed myself that Muschamp was retained, because I knew it would continue to tear the fan base apart. I knew the offseason would be a nightmare, I knew expectations would be in the gutter, and I didn't want to see it. I don't want to see the look of disgust on people's faces when Muschamp's name is brought up. It's horrible. This is our team, and so many of us can't stomach their chosen leader.
Until the season starts, this is the way it is. I'm not going to censor law, because he feels the way a lot of people do. This isn't Swamp Gas - I'm not just going to silence Gator fans for not toeing the line. We didn't just go 4-8 last season, we were humiliated in every way possible. Fans are upset, and it's not going to just disappear overnight. Once the ball is kicked off, we're going to be able to see what kind of progress this team has made for ourselves. If law turns out to be wrong, then he'll have to deal with the consequences. And if others choose to be optimistic, that's great too. They just have to accept not everyone feels the same way.
If you want to blame someone for any of this, blame Jeremy Foley. He had a chance to make a change and declined. He is absolutely aware of the war going on in the fan base.
Saying all that, I'll say it again: Winning cures EVERYTHING, even with fans as bitter as law. We beat a few rivals and maybe hoist an SEC Championship trophy, you're going to see happy days here again. It's just a message board, let's have fun.

Jones is too slow with his first step to get many yards against the good defenses unless they are out of gas late and tired out like that FSU game in 2012.

Everyone is protected unless they completely step over the line, including you. And you're damn right there's going to be cynicism coming off a season like that - it was my entire point. Fans are irrational, emotional jackasses and always have been. You ever read a game thread?Captain Sasquatch;n29555 said:
