Re: Gator fans cannot be pleased :
Try looking at fan complaining like this = Somewhere in a frigid climate. The gang sits in a the TV room, watching us win the game. It's freezing outside. The cozy 4-wall warmed room is appreciated in a "for granted" way. But there is a 6"x6" pane of glass missing on a window. Even though 225 sq ft is blocking out the frigid air, most of the gang is noticing that little 0.5 sq ft area where the excellent comfort is compromised by cold air leaking in. Brrrrrrr.

Has this Bill Connelly S&P+ thing ever been discussed? It's interesting. They are about to update it Feb 11th. There are some articles on sbnation leading up to that.

One from today:
Updated 4-year recruiting rankings for all 130 teams, where the SEC completely dominates (sbnation.com)
The Gators are ranked #6 in that nationally, and 4th in the SEC. Bama, UGA and LSU are 1, 2 and 3. He commented that TAMU is #6 in the nation but would lead two power 5 conferences.

Also, "The top tier is established, Purdue and UAB lead the most-improved lists, and WHEW did FSU plummet."
(from this article)

And this article focuses on returning production: 2019 CFB returning production, ranked a better way

"Here are 2018’s top 10 teams, according to the revamped version of S&P+, re-ranked in order of 2019 returning production:
  1. LSU (76 percent, 15th)
  2. Florida (74 percent, 26th)
  3. Clemson (64 percent, 53rd)
  4. Oklahoma (64 percent, 57th)
  5. Ohio State (63 percent, 62nd)
  6. Alabama (63 percent, 63rd)
  7. Michigan (63 percent, 68th)
  8. Georgia (62 percent, 69th)
  9. Auburn (60 percent, 84th)
  10. Mississippi State (57 percent, 92nd)"
Something isn't right about 9 and 10 - they weren't even close to top 10 by the end of 2018.

But anyway, the whole thing has a fairly positive Gator vibe, so I'm good with it.

You've obviously been giving this a lot of thought, Rog. The room got a little nippy while I was reading it.

Hey. The guy is probably still recovering from his 40th birthday blowout. Give him a couple of days.

Edit: :rotfl:

Just read the chatbox. JBoss is gone. I say give him til the end of February. It's a short month.

These are the top 10 by S&P+, not the polls.

Apparently there's questions on if Arjei Henderson can qualify. So keep an eye out for that.

First sentence: The Florida Gators just capped off an impassive 2019 recruiting class earlier this week with National Signing Day

I get us yokels have typos, but when the pros do it, it’s Mac level garbage.

(Unless a recruiting class can be impassive?)

That's someone aiming for a job at the Sun.
