You get what you pay for in today's NIL world.

When Miller got to the scene, Miles told Davis, “The heat is in the hat,” and “There’s one in the head,” referring to the gun having arrived with a round in the chamber, Det. Brandon Culpepper testified, according to AL.com. . wrong place wrong time, no way you make the kid miss a game

Of course I liked the Gators overall team makeup. Horford has as high a basketball IQ as anyone I've seen play center at college ball. Brewer had defensive skills that made him special even in the pros. You also left out Humphries and Green as sharpshooters that opened up the inside game. Also have to consider Horford's smarts could get the slower big men in foul trouble early. . Gonna be a great matchup tonight.

Nobody walks away from a $30 million buyout. AD must have a dirty card he could have played to void the contract.

Has to be Kentucky money under the table for Calipari to get him to walk away from the $30 million Kentucky owed him.

NIL, transfer portal and the most demanding fan base in College Basketball. Pros are a much better coaching environment.

How far can things go? Missouri Football recruits can start earning NIL money once they sign with an in-state schools. . Heading to no limits on high school recruiting soon. The "in-state" clause is just bizarre. Yep, anything goes is coming in ways we can't imagine.

Coaching was a problem. Making a point of saying it in front of the Media showed no class. Last year was the worst performance of any Gator defense I'm aware of. Made Grantham's D look like the good old days. Armstrong was obviously overwhelmed going up against SEC teams. Ron Roberts is the new sheriff in town and I'm expecting a big step forward in defensive play.

Golden is the real deal. Second half of season shows a great job of getting the most out of your players. Todd adjusted the second half defense in the A&M games and won.

So many national and SEC teams heavily recruit Florida and love recruiting every year against that "hot seat" unstable future that seems to get endless press. $25 million Napier buyout and $15 million to buyout the contract on the mid level coach the gators will get. Mizzou would hate to see Napier get an additional $40 million NIL portal money. Somebody please tell me the name of that wanted coach that would outperform the heavy freshman/sophomore team Napier had last year. Bigger, name a coach that wold be fighting to hold onto the #3 recruiting class in a very ugly year. Haters gonna hate, and likely win with the boot Napier frenzy. What come next is likely ugly.

Hot Seat U. Fire 'em every 3 years and run off the recruits. Anyone expecting a top 5 coaching prospect wants in on this G'ville spiral to try and further their career? . The pattern is not working.

Oats loves playing Thugs. Never forget his best player last year delivering a loaded gun for a murder. Oats and Tuscaloosa saw nothing and the star player didn't miss a game. This years most famous thug plays from the bench and does his best to take a player out. See the Broome tape from the Auburn game. Better, see Oats shoving the Missouri player. . So much thuggery and makes Bama proud.

Looking at the trench warfare coming at the Gators this year and the opponents are stacked. Miami has some beasts on the O'line and D'line and will be an early tell on how the Gators will fare. Surprise me Gators, please.

A defense loaded with Freshmen and Sophomores is going to disappoint no matter how good the players. DB's on field looking at each other confused on the 3rd and 17 was not unusual. LB play also looked lost. Worse, never saw coaching up performance as the year progressed. . Roberts will be running the show as Armstrong has to be aware of how ugly his defense looked last year. If Florida is coached up to a top 50 defense it will be a huge improvement.

Chill Donde. BS outrage then going to a leagalize talk on how "the rules are written...". NIL is more of a mess because everyone wants to see how much they can get away with. Gator faithful may have pushed the limit and will work with the NCAA to correct things. . The lady doth protest too much, methinks

Any team that barely beats Georgia should be shamed. What a sad statement humper.

You could portal to Georgia but Kirby doesn't tolerate the whining fair weather fans. In fact all the best programs have a solid support base and athletic program that are good at ignoring the rant of entitled fans. Try FSU?

The team was far too young last season and it showed in film study. Coaching up players and team chemistry need to show up this year.

A lot better than last year when a star player did a gun run to drop off a loaded gun, he let the guy know it was loaded. That gun then used a few hours later to kill a woman. I don't think Oats suspended the player for one game. Miles told Davis, “The heat is in the hat.” Miles added, “There’s one in the head.” That, Culpepper said, meant a round was in the chamber. Miles moved his girlfriend back to get her out of line of fire, Culpepper added. Wrong spot at the wrong time,” Oats said. (so no suspension) * Jamea Jonae Harris, 23, was killed

Kiffin fits the new Semi-Pro wild portal game called College Football. Rule changes have also made Kiffin's offensive mind more important than ever. I think Bama also knows the new game makes Kiffin their best option. Just not 100% sure Kffin will wan to make the move.

Mazzccua really needed to show the pros he could commit to a team and a coach. He has the physical tools and played some good ball for the Gators, he will be missed.

A&M is putting together a new staff with daily announcements. 100% sure Bateman hasn't signed the papers for long.

See the portal and players leaving at anytime they want. Coaching changes are just as volatile. If Graham's, the recruit, needs are not addressed he can be out of Gainesville this Spring. Hard working players seem to like playing for Napier and his system. Napier will be doing his best to do what is best for his linebackers and has not stood in the way of anyone wanting out. Hope Napier surprises Graham with a good hire.

The team badly missed cohesion you get from a team that has played together a few years. No Senior and Junior leadership was a big part of losing games that could easily have been won. Like they say the best part of having Freshmen is that they will be Sophomores. Miami, FSU, Auburn, Georgia...all benefited from the hot seat media talk when trying to land recruits when going up against Napier. No doubt all used "hot seat" heavily in recruiting against the Gators.

FSU was not impressive against a weak schedule and went undefeated, is that enough to get in ahead of Georgia? No. The proof is coming in their bowl game.

TikTok politics is our future. The political clown show never stops.

(No junior or senior leadership hurt this season) Would Migraine Myer look at the classes Florida has been able to bring in over the last 15 years? Top echelon players go for established programs with consistent records of developing a player over years. Flipping the program every 3 years is what finally got the Gators 3 straight losing seasons. Napier came close to breaking the spiral with this years recruiting class to seeing what path he could establish. But, again the hot seat talk for year 3 looks to destroy a top 10 class. Flipping programs every 3 years for bitter fans will never work. Florida not likely to veer from sucking up to the hair on fire make me happy now "fans", its a well established reputation. Florida will be back to hoping to get a top 20 in state player and now needs to compete with the more stable UCF program. What coach do the hair on fire fans think they can attract?

Wish the kid luck wherever he goes. He gave the Gators his all while in Hogtown and that is all you can ask. I'll cheer for any former player that went with the Gators and now play for another team, unless they are playing against the Gators. Wish you dawgs could take Florida's boo birds with you. I have been to a few games in Athens over the years and seen the respect you show your players and coaches. Impressive. Even Spurrier complained about the Gator fan base.

ETN needs an O'line for his running style to really shine. He will be a great fit somewhere and his numbers will be impressive. His pass blocking was non existent and there were some multiple hurries and sacks he cost the Gators this year. 99% sure that problem limited his # of snaps.

Media and negative recruiting have been using "hot seat Billy" before the season started and it amazed me he was able to pull a class ranked #3 at one time. Bama's Jameer Grimsley recently visited and asked about the Gators he mentioned that he was interested in Florida's effort to build something but mentioned the atmosphere in Gainesville looked unlikely to let that happen. 15 year toxic stew continues to brew in Gainesville.
