This continues to bother me: are we sure Foley did not? I am not convinced the boosters want a high flying football program. They certainly have not gone public with any pressure and do not seem to be overly concerned with lack of football facility development. Do you think Foley went rogue of the boosters when he said that we were not getting into an arms race? If you follow the money - or lack thereof - it seems more logical that our boosters did not want to get into a donations/arm race and Foley just delivered that message.
I would postulate that Foley’s biggest issue was an inability to motivate the boosters with a football vision.
@Durty South Swamp claims to know some influential boosters and they were more than satisfied with Muschamp. Does that vision align with an elite program?I can’t imagine the boosters not wanting an elite team. They’re just like us, alums whose school pride is closely identified with the football program.

And extremely proud of it. If you don't think he knows everything, just ask him. He'll be happy to tell you all about it - in the snarkiest tone possible.Don’t try with FF. He’s actually never been wrong.... because he only postulates after it happens. King of hindsight.
How many Bull Gators do you think there are? It does not take much to be influential.It aligns with a floor-level football IQ if you ask me. That’s just a few people. I don’t put a lot of stock in it indicating a trend.

He is apparently being way too selective for his current level of "success" at UCLA.J he no longer can--not even to the level of Butters.
Odd that multiple people hold the very same view of you on this very board. Maybe it’s time for some introspection. Doubt it will happen but you never know. Start with “why am I an insufferable know it all” then work your way from there.I don;t know if you just like to view things in your own way, if you are truly unintelligent or you just don;t read. I am the least hindsight person on the board and have been since its inception. I posit my opinions and admit when they were wrong. I was never a Chip guy at OU and when he went to the NFL I thought he would fail. Just as I never wanted Cousin Eddie and still don;t. Yes I am surprised by the overall record, but I still believe my view will be correct b/c of what I see. but when I see different I will say so. I have been on the Mike sux for 3 years. Is that hindsight? No. I genuinely do not care what your views are of me, but calling me hindsight is just plain wrong. FYI I have been wrong quite often in my life, but seeing those mistakes early allowed me to achieve the comfort I enjoy now. Hindsight implies reaction to me. Seeing mistakes early is proaction. I have always chosen the latter.
