Came down to the mile relay, the last event. Gators were trailing Arky by 5. Gators won the relay and set a collegiate record in the event and Arky didn't score points. Good guys win!

Coach Mouse is a LEGEND. He needs a statue on campus.

13 titles for THE most successful coach in the history of the state of Florida.

He might win another one tonight on the women’s side.

I agree 100% and I believe that the name of the track should be changed as well.

I think they’re in third place, right? That would be a helluva rally.

I read that at this point it is possible, not likely but possible

I'm not sure how it works exactly, but probably depends on the events if they are split over two days or whatever (update: I see that they are split). I know last night, the announcers said that we basically suck at the long distance running events, but had strong closing events (like the 4x400) where we make up the ground to win. Hope same is true for the ladies in how the events are scheduled.

I absolutely loved Mouse’s response when asked which of his 13 championships is his favorite. “The next one.”
That’s the mentality of a true champion

I also like his "March Madness is what matters" philosophy... doesn't care about SEC Championship, trains to get them to peak for NCAAs

Go Gators!!!

Gator ladies took second tonight. At least two individual winners (triple jump and 5000m - who said we don't have distance runners?).

Texas ran away with the title (pun intended). I think their runners used to be dudes!

Unlike FSU(cheating on online music courses), UF actually retains track and field titles once it is won.

Can he instill that in our other coaches?
