Did Mike McNeely save our program?

my favorite is the guy ten feet away who is watching it on the jumbotron.

That Jumbotron is distracting. We had this lady who kept standing up in front of us and watching the Jumbotron instead of the field.

Of the ones I can remember, we faked a FG against FSU in 2012 that Trey and Clay Burton bungled. We also faked a FG and scored a TD against Louisville in the Sugar Bowl. We also had a handful of faked extra points in 2012, as well.

As far as fake punts go, I know we got the one at Vandy in 2012 and the one at LSU last year, but I can't remember any others that were successful. WM even joked about that in the press conference last night, how his fake kicks never seem to work.

We had a nice fake field goal early against TAMU in 2012 too

I loved Velez in this ..."So, yeah...I'll distract them... just going to roll out here in the wide open flat with no red jerseys way back here. Text me if I can do anything...good luck!"

and he doesn't even have a staff of attorney's trying to sort out and spin all of his "naive" indiscretions

It was an option look.

Every time I see the name mcneely I think of the boxer that boxed Mike Tyson for like 30 seconds then threw in the towel. One of the funniest things I've seen in sports.

High praise for McNeely from Max Garcia, he even got choked up talking about him. Apparently these guys really love the kid.

This McNeely angle runs deeper than many may realize and deeper than has been publicly reported. Word has it, McNeely gave an emotional locker room speech after the Missouri loss where he stood up and spoke about how it was his lifelong dream to be a Gator and how he was embarrassed at the effort and wasn't sure if he even wanted to be apart of the team anymore. He made these comments and then walked out, leaving the team stunned. That explains some of the overwhelming love McNeely received after the fake kick TD and since.

Another great article on McNeely, this time from Gatorzone.

Teammate Andre Debose warned McNeely to be ready if the play worked.
“You better have two moves,’’ Debose said. “You better have one to score, and then one to avoid me, because after you score, I’m coming for you.”

Such a feel-good story, even the dark-cloud pumpers have to feel good about this one.

Anyone know which Publix it is? I bagged groceries at one of them in the summer of 1994 and I'm wondering if it's the same one. It probably is, as a layer of my awesomeness is still on that place two decades later.

From the picture it looks like the one at the corner of 34th and University. And the latest article says near campus.

Yeah I really wish we were still going to be in town the day after the SCar game, would like to go by and just shake his hand and congratulate him.
