There's an even easier solution to your problem than the UAA has regarding building new facilities.

I don't think I have the ability to ban anyone.

No but you have the ability to pump tons of sunshine at Swamp Gas.

Not sure why anyone would keep returning to a board they find “brutal”. I certainly wouldn’t.

It's brutal to open every thread and see 10 posts complaining about Jeremy Foley and 20 more telling everyone how it *should* be done.

If Jeremy Fooley didnt hire guys that looked like your avatar and spend 20 years being a slumlord you wouldn't have to see the posts.

And their imbecile laden fan base hates Spurrier to this day for quitting, although without him, they never would have such facilities. It's $50 million of wasted money with Duncechump is charge, that is a truth that those idiots still don't realize.

It's still just a chicken coop.

He just needs a little more time.

Something tells me this will have about the same return on investment as it did for UGA. Might get em some recruits, but who's gonna coach em up?

Look, I said long, long ago I dislike Fooley on a personal level. It has to do with the way he treated a friend of mine who used to work in the ADO.

That being said, he is a Gator and he loves the school. There is no doubt in my mind he probably thought that Florida sells itself and we don't need bells and whistles. I guess I thought it did too. I didn't even think it was possible to have us looking up at Cowbell and Kintucky. That being said, he should have figured it out quickly. It was his job.

When you run a 150million per year entity you get graded on how well you perform and rarely get a chance to fvkk up twice much less three times.

This might be the first reasonable post I’ve ever read from Donkey

I think Foley loves the school. The question to me, is does he love himself more than the school? I think the answer is obvious.

His biggest sin was believing he was capable of making good football decisions and then doubling down on the bad decisions. Softball, gymnastics, swimming? HOF AD. Football? A complete dunce.

Other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln?

Since football pays for everything else, it's 90% of his job.

The new order doesn't seem to think so. There's a real battle for control between the traditionalists and the politically correct academian crowd.

The football program has become a cute little after thought. You have plenty enough toys as it is, boys, just keep yourself occupied and be quiet.

You may be right.

Well, it's true that the football program made money hand over fist even during the dismal Butters years. The way the TV revenue is set up, everyone makes tons of money no matter how bad the product.

With that being the case, all you can do is pray that there is an administration that actually WANTS to win football championships and will do whatever it takes to get there - schools like Texas A&M and Alabama. I think it's safe to say our administration doesn't think that way.

How much longer until they try to start a men's soccer program? If/when that happens we'll know it's over (for football).

At least we no longer have an AD who continually prides himself on being a slueth and phucks up everything in the process.

The best and worst thing that ever happened to Jeremy Foley was Billy Donovan and the high praise that followed. He got drunk on his own juice.

His strategy with those others was to spend a lot of football money on the sports that no one else does. We've always had well paid baseball coaches. The baseball facility will soon be the best in the nation. I'm sure the other sports are the same way.

and he got very lucky.

If you hire 100 diamond in the rough coaches, 99 of them will fail.
