Fla us back to being a 2nd rate program.they miss URBAN and Tebow 😂😂😂
If I was a Florida fan, I would feel cautiously optimistic. The main issue is, will he recruit aggressively enough year over year to stay competitive, or does he actually believe they were better than UGA this year and they’re only 1-2 players away. I don’t have any of those concerns with Smart at the helm. With Smart it’s about in-game adjustments and getting the offensive side right.
Actually I am a "Facts matter" type of guy who uses analytics over emotion. UF's defense will get weaker as DM focuses on recruiting primarily for offense
UGA owns Fla. Deal with it.
In 2018 class 12 offense, 6 defense (4 safeties), 1 ath, 1 kicker.
2019 class 14 offence, 9 defense
I concur. I genuinely enjoy the banter with opposing fans, especially those who keep a level head and engage in substantial conversation, present company included. It is interesting to see the perspective of other fan bases and often insightful.
That said: Mullen ain't all that.
You right bc yall Fla fans are crazy if you think yall will beat Uga this season or next.
3rd best in the East
Haven’t you already said in this thread you don’t think Fla’s been any good since Urban?
Lot of posts in this thread where you’re basically saying the same thing.
I'll throw my two cents in on Mullen.
In 2015 when we were looking for a coach to replace Richt, you would hear the name Mullen. I still remember thinking
"if that's who we are going to get we might as well keep Mark Richt."
I wanted Tom Herman first and foremost, but Kirby has made me forget all of that. Kirby did inherit less of a mess from Richt than Mullen did from McElwain, but the fact of the matter is Mullen was trying to leave MSU as soon as he got there and none of these bigger programs hired him away
Objectively, I do think Mullen is a better coach than most other SEC coaches and a heck of a lot better than Malzahn. Just not at Saban/Bowden/Paterno/Bear levels. Jury is still out on Kirby, but he's done well in his first three years, especially in recruiting.
Mullen has a lot to prove. Good coach, yes. Great coach, nothing but a wait and see. His best record in the SEC is 2nd in the West in 14' and tied for 2nd in the East in 18'. The rest were 4th and 5th places in the West. Get them in the SECCG ahead of us, then he will have some respect.
Mullen's name has been thrown around as a possible NFL coach for the last 3 years. Granted, they may not have been "very serious," but he is probably the best SEC HC hire in 2018 - only exception may be Jimbo.
Second best of a bad bunch is hardly a ringing endorsement
Spoken by a TRUE DGDF! You're ending emoticon seals the deal! Touche sir!
Fla 3rd best in the East. Mia will beat them in the 1st game
The ‘18 game wasn’t even close guys. UGA dominated that game from start to finish. We could’ve and should’ve at a minimum won that game 48-17. Okay, give them the flea flicker and it’s 48-24. First and foremost does “7” plays from the 1/2 yrd line ring a bell? That was one of the worst goal line play calling in the history of college football. That one turned into 3 instead of 7. Then we had 3 other red zone stalls. 2 FGs and another with zero points. One by a fumble recovery that if I’m remembering correctly started around their 15 yrd line. Play calling was very suspect in this game. Our Dawgs will put another butt whooping on the gayturds again this year. Rest assured on the one!
Again doubt that too. Think Miami is going to be bad.
I'm in no way pandering for Florida but the only potential loss I see for them before the Georgia game (without looking up their schedule, which I'm not going to) is LSU. (Kentucky is unlikely to repeat 2018 with the two major players they lost) Very very good chance it's a top 10 matchup again like 2012/2018.
UF's schedule is front loaded. Before the WLOCP they have UT (60/40), Auburn (50/50), @SCar (45/55) in addition to UM (70/30) and @LSU (30/70). I put the over/under for losses going into Jax at 2.5 for them. FWIW I have UGA losses o/u at that time at 0.5
A lot of talk about the OL losses but the defense loses Shuler, Polite, Jefferson and Clark from their DL rotation, Joseph ILB and Gardner-Johnson DB
