If that number is true, anyone associated with that deal should be fired. UF doesn't need that kind of dumbassery around the football program.

Hathtinycock should be banned from campus too.
Are you out of your mind? Dude at least wrote a 150k check and apparently gave a mil to Gator Guard or whatever. Have you been stroking those checks?

We need hundreds of him.

This. Much like the Lambo we insisted on kids sitting in on their visits. I think there was probably a time when Napier could’ve been a lights out recruiter. But the system changed, which is not his fault really, and he appears to be way over his skis in this version.
There's just no proof of concept here. So we have to over pay and be gimmicky with Lamborghini's and what not. You don't see kirby , day and saban or even dabo getting in bidding wars with douche bags like miami. But there's nothing else really to sell here.

We win spelling bees.

Leave the pay-for-play to football powerhouses like KY.

You don't see them running out losing season after losing season after losing season either. Or expecting the kids to live in dorms that would have been leveled in the 70s if we were trying to stick low income in there.

After hiring four fuchstards in a row, and keeping a Slumlord for 30 years, we are where we are.

Not sure about the 7 million but ole Hugh Hathcock damn sure offered him 13.8 million to be paid through one of his companies. It is in a written contract and part of the lawsuit, luckily no one signed it but Rashada. That may be the worst part of this whole fuching story, our coach and other wealthy boosters even entertained the idea of giving a 165lb high school kid that kind of money.
Yes, unbelievable. Really look like dorks.

Consider college football and other sports pretty much dead!

My sister and I played lawn darts every damn summer in the 80’s when I visited my grandmother and absolutely loved it.

I have said this many times.

Napier would have been a great hire from a recruiting standpoint about the time we hired Butters. His approach may have been successful 8-10 years ago but building long term relationships and a family culture is an anachronism today.

Only three things matter:
1. Pay me
2. Develop me for the NFL
3. Win with me or I go elsewhere

It appears that we are addressing the first one currently.

While I do believe this is prevalent and is a big part of today's environment, I refuse to believe this is 100% accurate and that it can be applied to every player we go after.
I think, for the kids in our locker room, that they're happy to be a part of something wholesome and are happy CBN is going after his "type" player.
Moreover, all the successful teams I've been a part of in my military career also had the majority of its members that would fit into this category.
While it's rare, good still prevails.

Frame this post. It speaks to the present.
