    Age or apathy?

    Although I agree that it’s both to some extent, in my opinion it is mostly apathy towards the program. When my sons were active in little league and then high school sports, I spent a lot of time and energy around that which took away from my love of gator sports but only from the details. I...

    I read somewhere about this phenomenon, I think it’s called coaching.

    Gator Basketball Basketball Offseason Thread

    I spent the better part of 35 years driving round trip from either Jacksonville or Tampa for gator basketball games. Granted, I am a diehard gator basketball fan but if the product is good enough, people will drive to games during the week. The problem is the administration’s approach to...

    Baker Mayfield to Bucs; Trask returns to clipboard duties

    And claiming that he’s not in the NFL because of racism as opposed to the fact that he’s like five feet tall.

    I hope Golden succeeds but if not, my real is what you mentioned which is that Scottie will be leaving with him. I have said it before but it warrants repeating, if Scottie was a CEO, like we all pretend that he is, he would have been fired already for the multiple bad decisions and the quality...

    Too soon to tell at this point. We saw things we liked with Golden and also things that we didn’t. In the past it was all about recruiting talent that fits your system and then focusing on player development to take you to the promised land. The only barometer at this point would have been...

    Great picture of Little Durty. And I agree that you should crop the loser out of the picture.

    Recruiting 2024 Recruiting Thread: 3* Rising Safety Josiah Davis commits

    Agreed It reminds me of the BREAKING NEWS flashes on ESPN to inform us that a utility infielder with the Toronto Blue Jays signed a contract extension.

    Now this is what I consider to be good news. Corey Raymond is absolutely critical for success in the future

    I guess I won’t have the pleasure of watching him take 27 ft. Shots off of one leg while falling away anymore. It might be possible to convert him into a valuable player but I don’t see it happening here.

    Arizona Cardinals hire away DC Patrick Toney; Austin Armstrong new DC

    The spirit of Foley? Apparently you haven’t heard that Foley is alive and well in the program. He never left and the damage is obvious

    Gator Basketball Gators blown out by UCF in first round of NIT

    The game last night had little to do with rosters and talent. Johnny Dawkins had his team totally prepared to play while Golden’s guys were on spring break.

    Your point is validated by the new mission statement the athletics department has now. They used to say that we aspire to winning championships. Now they say that we aspire to competing for championships. What a meaningless statement.

    Gator Basketball Gators blown out by UCF in first round of NIT

    I agree Kugel is a budding star and Aleks is a potential contributor along with Aberdeen (who played better than Lofton or Bonham mostly) as a backup point. The rest of the team needs to seek a new destination. The downside is that Golden will bring in more mercenaries and it’s wash, rinse...

    He is absolutely awful. He had an impressive putback dunk in December and everyone gushed about his athleticism. I assume that the folks in Baton Rouge were laughing their a$$es off at the time. He’s done next to nothing since then. Fudge is the softest player I have ever seen in major college...

    But we still have a “State of the art arena” and “Hall of Fame Coach” prices for season tickets and the same two clowns running the athletics department so all is well from their view. When the boosters/fools that are still buying season tickets wake-up something might change. Until then why...

    Agreed I have been scratching my head listening to the constant comments about Kugel transferring because it makes no sense in the current situation. If he was not being utilized properly or facing some issues with the coaching staff I could understand but neither of these situations exist...
