He won the peach, then the orange…then a mediocre season and a bad season, then fired.

He lost the program. And last year was not a “mediocre season”, it was fairly exceptional. They beat UGA, won the East, and gave Alabama all they wanted in Atlanta. That’s what made it so obvious that he had to go….how quickly he drove the program into the ditch.

Good luck to florida fans being happy in the future.
