Basically our entire trophy case has his name on it, so should the stadium.

The ENTIRE remainder of the trophy case for the over a hundred year history of the program are:
NC
2006
2008

SEC
2006
2008

SEC East
2006
2007
2009
2015

How did we win the SEC and NC without winning the SEC East in 2008. Are we Alabama?

Fellas, I didn't think I'd have to say this, but I was kidding. Some of you need help.

It's amazing to me that a lot members don't realize that with The Dork gone (thank you very much), you're the biggest troll on GCMB. :lol:

The patron saint formally and forever reunited with the hallowed ground he created. Perfect. Just perfect.

Glad to hear it! Now if we can just get the guy back to Gainesville in some role, maybe as a special consultant to the head football coach working with QB's or something around the offense, then that would be icing on the cake.

Spurrier's contributions to this university and football program will never be overlooked. He is one of the most important, influential people to ever step foot on campus and his legacy will live on in lore. I am all for having his name engraved and put on facilities and buildings, but and don't crucify me for this, when it comes to Florida Field that is a name that imo should never be changed or altered. No man, even one who has done so much for this university as Spurrier has done, is bigger than the state itself and what the state represents. I'm not being negative, I truly believe that the name "Florida Field" is a name that should be kept sacred and unchanged, so that it serves as a reminder of the bigger picture of who we are as a University and the state we're honoring.

So I'm going to be 'that guy'...
I wondered when the term OBC came about as I thought it was HBC.
