Sad Napier and UF is in such dysfunction and we've lost to them the last two years.

We definitely dodged a bullet with him didn't we? 🙂
Hope we can beat them this year. Or at least the year after next.

Agree. Last year's loss was a complete defensive collapse.
Maybe Coach Paris will give Coach Beamer and Coach White some feedback on how to defend the Gators. Maybe the invention of footballs 1-3-1 defense.. ;)

UF took advantage of having safeties trying to cover wide receivers one on one. We didn't adjust and this loss is all on White and Beamer.

I will wait before writing off Napier. But, that's me. I do, though, believe this coming season is a "win or else" situation for him.

If he loses to FSU and UGA again I think he is gone no matter how the rest of the season looks.

You could be right. But if he goes 11-2 as a 3rd year UF coach and loses to 9th year UGA coach Kirby Smart and 6th year FSU Head Coach Mike Norvell, I guarantee you he will be snapped up by a Power 4 school to be their Head Coach as soon as he is available.

Are any of you thinking or reading what you're typing?? UF going 11-2?

I am slow minded so It took me a few minutes to figure out what he is saying. King Ward is being funny

haha, yeah, I got it. Just took the post as an opportunity point out how devastatingly embarrassing our last 2 losses have been.

I think it was shared responsibility. All Dial had to do was at least slow down a TE in the open field on a 4th and 11 and we win. They threw the ball behind the LOS to a freaking TE to convert a 4th and 11. Dial was in position and whiffed badly.

5 months later and it still makes me want to vomit.

Don't forget, on the next drive we allowed 26 yards on a 4th and 10 from the UF 25.

It was just an exercise in humiliation.

Oh, me too brother. But the 4th and 11 TE pass got me much worse. Pearsall was one of the top WRs in the league. An elite player made an elite play. The TE pass was an absolute disaster.

It's funny, if we throw a pass behind the LOS, it seems there's always 7 or 8 defenders waiting to tackle us. They throw behind the LOS and we have one guy who whiffs badly and then there's not another defender for within 8 yards.

If you want funny, go back and watch the replay. I actually had to chuckle. You see Dial barreling in at 7:11 looking like he's ready to blow this guy up thinking "Dead. Meat." At 7:10 he realizes he misjudged it badly and is thinking "Oh, crap".

Oh yeah. I was already screaming with excitement watching it unfold. Then reality set in that we were about to blow this game and likely miss a bowl. Reminds of Coach 30 saying "Uh oh. He's bigger than me. Stronger than me. I'm not a real athlete. And I pissed down my leg".

Kinda funny how some of our fans contract amnesia so quickly. We're not a good team, and our staff is most definitely subpar. But, come July the usual suspects will once again confidently proclaim 8-9 wins is the minimum in 2024.
It seems that way. 🙂

AC, I won't be in that group. But, my thought is that in Year 4 of your program, you better finish no worse than .500 in your conference. If you can't, I would ask: what the hell has Shane been doing? With 3 "gimmes" plus Vanderbilt, finishing with a .500 conference record would result in a 7-5 record. I don't think that is an unreasonable expectation. BUT, there are some good people who do. We will just have to agree to disagree. I firmly believe that you have to put pressure on people to produce or they then become complacent and the results are mediocrity.

I guarantee you we won't beat them this year. If we beat them this year, I will leave the board forever.
I'm bookmarking this, just in case we play them for the SEC championship...

He's been busy becoming a multi-millionaire at the University's expense. Then he'll go away and leave our program buried further underground.
If that happens, Tanner will have lots of splaining to do..... "Ray, why did you hire someone with no successful Head Coaching experience after hiring a proven failure who failed again?".

Whoever hired Ray to be an Athletic Director in the SEC has a lot of "splaining" to do. A few of us are still waiting.
I knew a pretty girl while living in Florida who married the son of a doctor. In her mind (and maybe her mother's) it was the same as marrying a doctor instead of the worthless drug-addled bum who couldn't keep a job. Last I heard about her she was living in a single wide. With a baby. We didn't hire Frank Beamer.

Tanner was supposed to be run out of town with Champ.
