Some Motivating Articles to Prep Us for the Summer

[SeabeeGator]

Saw this on Reddit and thought it was just too motivating not to share:

Florida Football: Nussmeier plus McElwain is darn near cheating

Florida Gators: Randy Shannon leap of faith kept C.J. McWilliams at UF | Gator Bytes

Great quote from the second article:

“After my third season of high school, I wasn’t getting interest from any schools,” said McWilliams, a 3-star cornerback from Miami. “Coaches don’t really come by my high school (Southwest). Finally a big college noticed me and saw what I was capable of doing, so it was a dream come true.”

On May 1 of last year during spring football, McWilliams was called out of class a couple hours before his practice.

“I came down to the office and standing there was Randy Shannon,” said McWilliams, who only had one offer (Florida Atlantic) at the time.

What other articles get you pumped for the upcoming season?

I couldn’t even get all the way through the first article, without starting to feel nauseous. If I’m ever desperate for a job, I’m becoming a sports writer. Clearly, actual knowledge of what you are writing about is not a requirement.

Is McWilliams the biggest Randy Special ever? Or Rayshad? Or Lacedrick?

There are a couple of dozen. But stars dont matter, ya know.

Every coach we hire (since Creyer) is the three star whisperer, so stars dont matter.

I’m going with Lacedrick. If for no other reason than the name.

Butters is probably the biggest Randy Special ever.

More like Randy is the ultimate Butters Special.

After McWilliams fixed Shannon's flat tire, coach was on his way back to Gainesville.
