I don't want to be too negative and put too much out but yes they did say no thanks and it had ZERO to do with money. That's 2 out of 3 years where we had a top 3 safety in the nation (who both have blazing speed) gift wrapped to us and instead you see who we are trotting out there. I mean I guess Powell and #7 are pretty fast LMFAO.

Way too many coaches have told me Smith is a dingleberry. I've not heard ANYBODY say anything positive about him. Getting rid of that little ****** would be huge win.

Its really hard to "trust the evals" when they trot out guys like Harris.

Honestly this season is going about as good as it can get

Us at 10-1

FSU at 2-9

UiF has a lame duck head coach but they’re showing JUSSSSTTT enough life to kick the can down the street. That’s Miami’s M.O. and we know what it looks like

Someone else suggested rooting for FSU to win against UiF to give FSU some false hope and I don’t hate that either

I think UF is going to run the score up in Tally next week. FSU won’t score more than 10.

Our fanbase knows copium and what could've been all to well. It's the beginning of the end when you celebrate being 6-5 and talk about the other games you lost and how close you were to winning and how bright the future is... I've seen that story for 20 years play out badly...

I think it’s perfectly acceptable to admit they’re playing much better right now and that we would not beat them by 24 if we played again. More so that we’ve regressed since then, rather than they’ve gotten significantly better.

Didn’t say we’d lose. Didn’t say Lagway was a god. But they honestly could have beat UGA if he doesn’t get hurt, they beat LSU, Ole Miss, and took Tenn to OT. You’d be a blind homer to dismiss this.

And yet, I don’t think Billy is a good coach at all. Outspend them on the trail if you want these recruits that bad. Simple as that. They’re our biggest rivals, outspend them.

If the boosters really believe in Mario like a lot of y’all do, they should have no problem coughing up the funds after 10+ wins. Right?

2025 should be a really fun game and great for the rivalry / an amazing environment for recruiting.

As always you’re preaching. If you removed the records from the game stream. As well as the Rankings. UF looks lights year better than we have in the back half of year. It’s not even close. Our very self conscious fanbase would never admit such a thing but it’s clear as day to anyone with a brain that they have been ascending to close the year while we have flatlined or even gotten worse.

As long as they keep Billy as a coach I am happy. They can keep ascending to maybe even 8-4 next year...

I'm not as optimistic as others about the close personally. I think we finish top 10 and we spend very aggressively in the portal. Selling the falloff of FSU to the boosters is very easy...

We have had our chances with a lot of kids and we have held back and believe better ROI in the portal. I agree with that strategy mostly but that depends on our faith in developing talent. When you have a guy like Beard who can develop receivers and you give Sam Brown twice what Drelon asked us for that's a head scratcher. But we are 10-1 so I'll leave the negativity off the boards...

That hurts to hear. Drelon was one of my favorite recruits that class and looks like he’s turning it on. The BS with Mcnutt is even more egregious now that the bottom appears to be falling out on DB recruiting.

You realise we've covered the spread a lot recently, right?

Light years? Come on man. I’ve been critical of the defense especially.
But that would mean that they the gates are 4 more wins better than they are. And nobody has ever been 4 wins better than their record.
The fact is that the teams they beat have been hyped up because of the pre-season record and sec hype. Nico is the 8 million dollar man in Tennessee and hasn’t lived up to the hype. LSU has tape worm diarrhea.
Bama is about to lose to a mid Oklahoma team.

Have they looked better than most thought? Yes.
Have the teams they beat lived up to the preseason hype? Nope.

But light yars better than us? Don’t think so.
