Does anyone know how Elam feels about Warren? Could this play in our favor when he realizes how slimy KS and the dwag program is?

Could go the other way. If he really likes Warren, might view this as a “savage” move by Smart to bring in his preferred guy or to do whatever it takes to win. We’ll find out in a couple of weeks but I don’t think anyone has a good read on how this will play out.

Jay26,
Forgive me for hijacking your post to answer yet another asinine assertion by traz, but his garbage about UF fans making widespread excuses for Mullen is but one example, within this single thread, of a patently untrue statement made by traz to support his supercilious bilge.

You made a blanket statement in this thread that UF fans are dishonest with themselves and just don't want to hear the "truth"; that we make widespread excuses for DM's "failures" and that it's "embarrassing" to point out what's wrong about the skullduggery going on in Athens. Then you attack posters who disagree with you (and I'm not the only one) by accusing them of being dishonest or even comparing them to UT fans. Another of your favorite tactics is nitpicking a long and detailed post for some arguable point, and then using it as a club to undermine the post in its entirety. Come to think of, that's the same method you apply to your constant blather regarding the "failings" of DM. Oh, and one last thing, if my posts annoy you, as you asserted earlier, good - mission accomplished.

Your assertion that only you know the truth, and that anyone who does not concur is either dishonest or at the level of a UT fan, is looney tunes. If English is arguably worse than Sal as a recruiter, fine, I stand corrected. But that's not what this is about. It's about your long stated animosity toward DM and your apparent belief that you are some sort of barnyard "oracle" sent to disabuse the local yokels of their fatuous notions. I ain't buying it, and neither are many others on this board whom you've seen fit to insult and demean for the sin of having a different opinion. Also,I have selected, and will continue to select instances in which you clearly "make sh!t up" to support the unsupportable.

Not yet, it's still new enough to be mildly amusing. I'm sure I'll tire of it soon enough. But thanks again for the penetrating insight.

I found this elsewhere:
FWIW - Here is how much the competition paid assistants last year compared to Florida...
Ohio State = 7,383,938
Clemson = 6,810,000
LSU = 6,470,000
Georgia = 6,420,000
Alabama = 6,123,723
Florida State = 5,715,000
Tennessee = 5,675,000
Oklahoma = 5,085,000
Florida = 4,855,000
Before everyone freaks out, I think there are a couple things to keep in mind...
1) Since it was his first year as a true assistant, we only had to pay C-Rob $90k. I suspect he'll be more around $200k next year. Also, as some have mentioned, we saved $200k with Tennessee paying part of Warren's buyout. Taking those things into consideration quickly puts us over the $5 million threshold.
2) Some of the teams at that top of that list (Ohio State, Georgia, and Alabama) had the most staff turnover (for various reasons), and at some of the highest paid positions. If money meant everything, Georgia and Alabama would almost never lose a coach.
At the end of the day, I do think Stricklin needs to open up the check book a bit though, especially at two critical positions like DL and CB. And I think he will if it means getting the right guys. He's already proven with the upcoming facility upgrades that he knows what it takes to compete at the highest level, and I think that'll show with the raises and hires we make this offseason.

One of the differences between you and me is that I'm inside the tent pissing out, and you're outside the tent pissing in. I stated, and will continue to state my opinion. And if I do it in a way that you find annoying, so be it. But your assertions that UF fans are dishonest and can't take the truth is nonsense - nonsense that was "made up" by you. Your apparent belief that you can insult and demean other posters without any response, is also delusional (fancy term for made up BS). Oh, and the fact that you are widely viewed as an ass (my apologies to the donkey) is demonstrated, not only in this thread, but others too numerous to mention. We can play this game back and forth forever, although I must admit that it's beginning to lose its charm. Have a nice day.
