Sparky Gator

Like the tree that falls silently in the forest, are you really playing basketball in March if nobody fills out a bracket contest for your team?
I think some of the chippy-ness carried over from the NC series last year. Throwing at Cags seemed to help the Gators more than the Tigers. And UF/LSU have become big rivals in everything the last few years.
That burn would be better if the Dawgs were in the real tourney.
No idea on GA law, but he would only have to be .02 in FL to be considered dui, as he's only 20 years old I believe.
According to the information I've read, assistant coa hinges salaries in the NFL are about double most equivalent college positions. Between that and not having to recruit, I would say it's a huge promotion.
For coaches that made fun of for doing a horrible job, they sure keep getting sweet promotions.
*every scholarship player could be paid over $100k a year. TV money is what has ruined cfb.
Problem is a school like Bama that broke even paid the football staff in the neighborhood of $20 million in 2023. Cut that number in half and every schol
Please explain how you think anyone can fix NIL in the USA under current federal laws.
There isn't enough money to pay college players like NFL players get paid, because there are too many teams. Because of that alone, boosters will still be able to pay enough in NIL to effect recruiting.
The collectives and the rogue boosters are simply doing what they have always done. They're paying players to attend "their School".
What's funny to me is there are people that think paying the players and then putting a salary cap on teams would change anything. Even the NFL has no limits on NIL.
One down side of tourney style playoffs is a team can be off one game and be out. Also matchups play a big part of advancing.
There was an article on SDS prior to the game that told us SEC fans not to claim GA would beat both of these teams while watching the game. Next day and click bait Hayes writes that exact article. SDS had become hypocrisy central.
He's coming as a PWO per reports I've seen other places. I'm guessing he can get academic scholarships being as he's a state resident. Good depth for the qb room.
A young man works his arse off on the practice fields, gets classes completed to earn a degree, and all you do is bash him and Napier. Please enlighten us all on all the accomplishments you have from UF. And throw in how much you're helping nowadays for good measure.
I will watch some. But I still think it's stupid to have a NC game on a weeknight that won't end until around midnight on the east coast.
STL, that seems to be the part many fans forget about. The Courts have basically told the ncaa they have no control over players transferring or getting paid NIL. The next logical step is for the players to organize and sign a collective bargaining agreement. I'm just not sure the greed of the schools will allow that any time soon.
GT8, I take it you missed Manny getting the HC job at Duke?
The problem is simply the overreaction to the last game played.
If UGA had won the SECCG, I think fsu would have been the 4 seed. Even with less opt outs, that match up wouldn't be close and the Dawgs would be rested up for the NC game. As a Gator, I'm glad that didn't happen :)
I'm still hoping he catches an STD and can't play all season due to the rash (:
You act like having an odd number in the playoffs is crazy, but yet the NFL does the same thing. It's not that big a deal.
But it is the Noles fault that they chose to join the weak acc because Bowden thought it was the easy way to a NC. Came back to bite ya.
FSU insiders thought they were about to flip LJ. At this point nothing would surprise me except a winning record next season. :)
Agreed STL. I've seen rumors that Korn will be hired after Liberty's bowl game. Better hope the offense hits the ground in high gear next year.
He will make it to 2024 because there isn't a candidate out there that would be worth starting over for at this point. But unless they make a remarkable improvement next season, I don't see him surviving the season.
His choice of destinations will tell the reason for his transfer. Rumor has been that he wants to play in the CFP next year and then leave early. If so, Missouri is not likely to be his choice. Bama has been the rumored choice, along with UGA.
Like it or not, with ETN and Princely and ETN hitting the portal, Napier is on his way out. He has to show a marked improvement in wins and losses next year to survive now. Even 7 wins will be tough to survive the season with.
